Configuring the BIOS Setup

Once the EXM-9 is inserted into the carrier, turn the system on and boot it up. The
EXM configuration data in the EPC to which the EXM-9 is connected now must be
modified to recognize and enable the card and select from the available options.

Invoke the BIOS setup function from the command line by pressing the CTRL-ALT-
ESC keys simultaneously.

Enabling the EXM module

Once in the setup program, a menu displays specifying which function keys are
available for further configuration. Press the F2 function key to invoke the EXM
menu. The screen display resembles the figure below.

5 DC F5
The EXM Setup Screen displays the EXM configuration data (in hexadecimal) stored
in nonvolatile memory which the EPC uses at power-up to recognize and configure
each installed EXM. An example of configuration data for the EXM-9 is shown in
bold in slot 2. The displayed data shows SLOT, ID, OB1 and OB2. These are
defined as follows:
SLOT indicates the slot in which the EXM is installed. See the diagram
below to determine which EXM slot the EXM-9 occupies. Note
that dashed lines indicate EXM slots that may not be available on
all systems.
