    On the next Setup pages (switched with PgDn and PgUp) the values for special parameters are modifi- able. Normally the parameters are set correctly by DIGITAL-LOGIC AG Be very careful in modifying any parameter since the system could crash. Some parameters are dependent on the CPU type. The cache parameter is always available, for example.
