VIPer SOFTWARE SETUPS

The VIPer807 is software configurable. The setup programs allow for minimal hardware
configuration.
The VIP-UP program - TEKNOR's own Setup program for enabling / disabling /
relocating various hardware features - is explained in section 10.01.
The AMIBIOS Setup program which is used to change operating parameters is explained
in section 10.02.

10.01 VIP-UP PROGRAM

The VIP-UP program can be executed during boot-up. During boot-up, hit the CTRL and
V keys simultaneously, before or when you see the message "Press CTRL-V to enter
TEKNOR VIP-UP" at the top of the screen (CTRL-V will work, even if the message
display is disabled in VIP-UP).
You may also execute the VIP-UP program at the DOS prompt; in such a case, type "VIP-
UP" and press ENTER. This program is available on the utility disk (VIP-UP.COM).
There are one or two screens in the VIP-UP program. The values appearing on the right
side of each screen can be modified: Follow the instructions found at the bottom of the
screen to select another value.
Use the ↑ and ↓ keyboard keys to move up and down the screen, and on to subsequent or
preceding screens. As you do, the value of the selected field is highlighted. If you press the
↓ key when the last field of the screen is highlighted, the next screen is displayed.
Pressing the ↑ key when the first field is highlighted will display the first field of the
preceding screen; in this way you can move quickly from screen to screen.
Once a field value is highlighted, you can change it by pressing PgDn or typing "+" on the
keyboard (in VT100 mode, only "+" will work); this will usually display a higher value.
You can also press the PgUp key or type "-" ("-" in VT100 mode), which will usually
display a lower value.
Press F10 to save the current configuration and exit (type "U" in VT100 mode). The
configuration is not saved until F10 is pressed or "U" is typed. Press ESC to exit without
saving the setup.
