15.1 Specific OP37 Settings in BIOS Setup
In
order that the OP37 can be used flexibly
, a page containing the OP37-spe
-
cific settings has been added to the general BIOS Setup. These extensions are
described in the following paragraphs. All the other pages in the BIOS Setup
contain the default settings for PCs and should not be modified.
The page containing the OP37-specific settings is called
OP Extension
. The
most important setting on this page is the boot medium setting. This is used to
change between OP mode and DOS mode. It is also possible to customize the
interfaces.
The boot medium is set up at this point. The parameters have the following
significance:
OP firmware
The OP37 starts up with this setting in OP mode.
DISK
The OP37 starts up with this setting in DOS mode. If there is a floppy disk
in the drive, the OP37 boots from floppy disk. If there is no floppy disk, the
OP37 boots from hard disk.
PCMCIA:HD
The OP37 starts up with this setting in DOS mode. The OP boots from
PCMCIA hard disk.
If modules or applications are installed which require a specific setting for the
serial interfaces, the interfaces can be correspondingly configured. The UAR
T
address (COM1 to COM4), the interrupt and the physical level can be freely
assigned.
The address and the interrupt for the parallel interface can be set in the same
way as with the serial interfaces.
The interrupt for the interface module which supports the PROFIBUS-DP is
set here.
