Introducing the BIOS
transmission/reception polarity as High or Low.
! IR Transmission Delay:
Two options are available: Disabled or Enabled. The default setting is Enabled. Set IR transmission
delays 4 character-time (40 bit-time) when SIR is changed from RX mode to TX mode.
! UR2 Duplex Mode:
Two options are available: Full or Half. The default setting is Half.
Select the value required by the IR device connected to the IR port. Full-duplex mode permits
simultaneous two-direction transmission. Half-duplex mode permits transmission in only one
direction at a time.
! Use IR Pins:
Two options are available: RxD2, TxD2 or IR-Rx2Tx2. The default setting is IR-Rx2Tx2. If you
choose RxD2, TxD2, your motherboard must support a COM port IR KIT connection. Otherwise, you
can only choose the IR-Rx2Tx2 to use the IR header on your motherboard to connect your IR KIT.
Please use the default setting.
The setting for item "RxD, TxD Active", also called "TX, RX inverting", allows you to
determine the activity of RxD and TxD. We set it to "Hi, Lo". If your motherboard BIOS uses
"No" and "Yes" to represent this item, you should set it to the same setting as the NV7m. This
means that you should set it to "No, Yes" in order to match the transfer and receiving speed. If
you fail to do so, you will not get an IR connection between the NV7m and the other computer.
Onboard Parallel Port:
Four options are available: Disabled ! 378/IRQ7 ! 278/IRQ5 ! 3BC/IRQ7. The default setting is
378/IRQ7. Select a logical LPT port name and matching address for the physical parallel (printer) port.
! Parallel Port Mode:
Five options are available: SPP ! EPP ! ECP ! ECP+EPP ! Normal. Default is ECP+EPP
mode. Select an operating mode for the onboard parallel (printer) port. SPP (Standard Parallel Port),
EPP (Extended Parallel Port), ECP (Extended Capabilities Port), Normal or ECP plus EPP.
Select SPP unless you are certain your hardware and software supports both EPP or ECP mode.
According to your selection, the following items will appear.
! EPP Mode Select:
Two options are available: EPP1.9 ! EPP1.7. The default setting is EPP1.9. When the mode selected
for the parallel port mode is EPP, the two EPP mode options are available.
! ECP Mode Use DMA:
Two options are available: 1 ! 3. The default setting is 3. When the mode selected for the onboard
parallel port is ECP or ECP+EPP, the DMA channel selected can be 1 (Channel 1) or 3 (Channel 3).
Game Port Address:
Three options are available: Disabled ! 201 ! 209. Default setting is 201. You can choose the game
port I/O base address in this item to meet the need for game requirement.
