AUTOCONFIG™
AUTOCONFIGuration is a unique feature of the Commodore PC personal computers like the COLT 286, allowing
the computer to automatically sense additional peripheral devices plugged into the expansion bus. Once these addi-
tional devices are detected, the resident peripherals on the COLT 286 motherboard are adjusted so as not to conflict
with expansion peripherals. The AUTOCONFIG™ feature can prevent hardware damage to peripherals and mother-
board, as well as ease the installation of expansion cards.
