MONO

Force monochrome display even if color display installed. May increase the readability
on LC displays often used with laptops.

?

Displays a message how to setup port address and how to use the program. Output can
be redirected to printer ( append ">LPT1" to the command line) or file (append ">file-
name").

All the command line parameters are optional. In most cases the program is started
simply by entering PCPSINFO. If the board can installed successfully, the screen
displays information similar to figure shown below:

The upper part of the screen shows information about the resident driver (if the driver
has been installed). These information include the ID string of the resident driver
with the driver revision number, the number of the software interrupt used to
control the resident driver and the last recent date/time the driver has read from the
board. The number of the user interrupt is determined automatically when the resident
driver is installed. It is not affected by the hardware interrupt configured by jumpers.

The BUSY flag controls the driver´s right to access the board. If the flag is set to

OFF the driver is allowed to access the board, if it is ON, access is inhibited. This flag
can be changed from the command line using the utility DRV.EXE or by pressing the
key B in PCPSINFO. The flag DISP affects the resident driver´s feature displaying
the permanent date/time window on the screen (upper right corner in the screenshot
above). It can be altered using the utility DISP.EXE from the command line or by
pressing the key D. The flag Set RTC direct enables the driver to write directly to the
computer´s real time clock. This feature is required in some special environments
only; see the description of PCPSDRV.COM below. The Tick Counter counts the
