4-6 Using the ECU and SCSI Utilities
THE EISA CONFIGURATION UTILITY (ECU)
The ECU utility is required for EISA configuration and
provides a detailed view of your system’s configuration.
The ECU utility allows you to make system configuration
changes when you add, move, or remove an EISA, PCI,
Plug and Play ISA, or non-Plug and Play ISA board. This
ensures that the information in CMOS is consistent with
the information stored in the BIOS.
When you add a board to your configuration and run the
ECU utility, it reads the board’s corresponding configura-
tion (CFG) file. The ECU uses the CFG file, which
describes the characteristics and the required system re-
sources of the board, to create a conflict-free configuration.
Once you complete the configuration process, configuration
information is saved to the system’s nonvolatile memory for
use any time you power-on the system.
The ECU utility:
■
supports EISA and ISA boards, PCI devices, and Plug
and Play ISA boards.
■
automatically detects EISA boards, PCI devices, and
Plug and Play ISA boards installed in your computer.
■
creates and maintains the System Configuration
Information (SCI) file as a backup for the computer’s
nonvolatile memory.
■
supports configuration (CFG) file extensions.
■
lets you set the computer’s date and time.
■
allows you to create ISA CFG files.
