Q. Can I install a Math- Coprocessor chip and what type do I need?

A. A Math- Coprocessor chip is an option which speeds up the floating point

math functions used in many spreadsheet and math - intensive software
applications. It can be purchased at electronic parts retailers and computer
stores (Epson America Inc. does not supply them).

An Intel (8MHZ)

80287-8 Math- Coprocessor chip, is recommended for use with the APEX

200 computer.

The Math-Coprocessor chip is installed in the socket

provided at I.C. location 5C on the APEX 200 system board. The system
must be configured for the Math- Coprocessor option in SETUP.

Q. Where can I get application software for the APEX 200 computer?

A. You can use virtually all software programs written for the IBM PC/AT

computers.

Make sure the system requirements on the software package

match your computer configuration and video adapter type. Software is
available through Epson Accessories, Inc. at 1 - 800 - 873- 7766, or at your
local software store.

Q. Is the APEX 200 compatible with MS-OS/2?

A. Since OS/2 is much more hardware - specific than MS - DOS, the Epson

version of MS - OS/2 is required (available from Epson dealers).
A minimum of 2MB of RAM memory is required to run MS-OS/2.

Q. Will IBM compiled BASIC programs run on the APEX 200?

Most BASIC programs written for the IBM PC- XT will run on the APEX

200. Some IBM and Tandy BASIC programs will not run. This is because
they require IBM BASICA which is resident in copyrighted ROMs.

All

compatibles use a version of GW - BASIC which is loaded from diskette.

Due to differences in the BASIC, some programs will not operate correctly.

Q. Can I use the APEX Monochrome Monitor (Model # AP1040) with other

IBM PC - compatible computers?

A. The Apex 12” Monochrome monitor (Model AP - 1040) uses a TTL video

signal which is IBM PC - compatible and can be used with other computers

that have a monochrome TTL video board. It should not be confused,

however, with the earlier Apex composite video monochrome monitor (Model
# AP - 1010A) which is not compatible with the APEX 200 video board.
