2-10 Setup and Operation
SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
This section describes the Setup utility program that allows the system configuration
information to be viewed and changed.
NOTE: The system ships from the factory with
the correct system parameters for the
configuration. Unless setting the time and date,
setting security features, customizing the system,
or adding optional hardware, Setup does not
need to be run.
System configuration information is stored in nonvolatile memory. Nonvolatile memory in
the system is a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) chip backed by a
battery, either a coin-type battery or a real-time clock/battery module on the system board.
The battery supplies continuous power to the CMOS memory and maintains configuration
information when system power is off (see “Replacing the CMOS Battery” in Section 4).
Setup Utility
The Setup utility is used to view and set system parameters. Use the Setup utility to:
„
set the time and date.
„
update or check system parameters when adding or removing expansion options.
„
change or set power management features.
„
correct a hardware discrepancy when the Power-On-Self-Test (POST) displays an
error message and a prompt appears to run Setup.
„
check the installation of optional memory by comparing the amount of memory
installed with the amount of memory displayed by Setup.
„
change certain system operating parameters, such as boot device sequence or
keyboard parameters.
„
configure system connections for peripherals such as the diskette drive, hard
drives, and devices connected to the printer and serial ports.
„
customize the system with security features such as passwords, diskette drive
restriction, virus check reminder, and system backup reminder.
„
set system parameters if the CMOS battery or real-time clock/battery module
needs replacing.
