Peripheral Configuration - NEC PowerMate Enterprise Manual

Peripheral Configuration

Adjustments must sometimes be made in the Setup Utility when peripheral devices are
added, removed or changed.
Use the fields in the following list to configure the system when making any peripheral
configuration changes.
T
Serial Ports A and B
Selectable parameters for this field are "Disabled," "Enabled," and "Auto." The
default setting for Serial Port A is "Enabled." The default setting for Serial Port B
is "Disabled." The serial ports can be auto detected by choosing "Auto." The
"Auto" parameter enables the serial device, but the BIOS will not place its
resources unless the "PnP OS" field described previously is set to "No."
Use the Enabled setting if you want to choose a specific address for the serial
port. The following options become available:
Base I/O address
Available addresses include "3F8h" (Serial Port A default), "2F8h" (Serial
Port B default), "3E8h," and "2E8h."
Interrupt
Available IRQs include "IRQ4" (Serial Port A default) and "IRQ3" (Serial
Port B default).
Serial Port B Mode
If you are using an IrDA device, the Serial Port B Mode field should be
"IrDA." The default is "Serial."
T
Parallel Port
Selectable parameters for this field are Disabled, Enabled (default), and Auto. The
parallel port device can be auto detected by choosing Auto. When Auto is
selected, the first free LPT port is assigned. Setting this field to Auto enables the
device, but the BIOS will not place its resources unless the "PnP OS" field
described previously is set to "No."
NOTE: When an option is selected for one
serial port, that selection is not available for the
second port.
