If you run the EISA Configuration utility on a non-target
computer (an IBM AT compatible computer or another EPSON
EISA computer), you can create a file for the target computer.
Then you can transport the alternate SCI file to the target
computer, load it, and save it in that computer's CMOS RAM.
To create an alternate SCI file, follow the guidelines in the next
section. To load an alternate SCI file when you need to use one,
see "Loading an Alternate SCI File" below.
Creating an Alternate SCI File
You can create an alternate SCI file using the following
methods:
S e l e c t C r e a t e a b a c k u p S C I f i l e f r o m t h e M a i n t a i n
system configuration diskette menu.
Select the Save as option from the Maintain SCI files
menu when you are using the advanced configuration
options.
Run the EISA Configuration utility in non-target modeling
mode and save the configuration you create to a backup
SCI file when you exit.
The program asks you to name the alternate SCI file you create.
Do not name the file SYSTEM.SCI; this is the name of your
current configuration file.
Run the EISA Configuration utility in non-target modeling
mode only when you are running the configuration program
on a non-target computer. This method protects you from
accidentally saving the configuration you create in that
computer's CMOS RAM. See "Using Special Modes" for
instructions on using non-target modeling mode.
