COM6: [Disabled - Use IO Addr=238, IRQ=5]
This selection enables or disables COM6, a spare port not dedicated to a particular
device. However, by default, this port is disabled to allow the on-board sound
hardware to use IRQ5. If you enable the port, use the IO Address and IRQ line
specified above. However, the on-board audio hardware will not function.
Parallel Port [Enabled]
This selection configures the front panel parallel port connector. Select
"Disabled" to turn off the port and use the assigned resources elsewhere. Select
"Enabled" (default) to set the port resources manually.
Mode: [SPP]
This selection defines the parallel port mode. In most cases, the driver
software for a typical device (a parallel port CD-ROM drive for example)
enables the fastest possible parallel port configuration. Press [-] to toggle
through each selection.
"[EPP]" selects the Enhanced Parallel Port mode.
"[ECP]" selects the Extended Capabilities Parallel Port mode.
"[SPP]" selects the Standard Parallel Port mode.
Base I/O address:[378]
The Base IO address determines the LPT port designation of the parallel port.
Two selections are available. [378] corresponds to LPT1 and [3BC]
corresponds to LPT2.
DMA Channel: [DMA 1]
If the parallel port Mode is set to "ECP", you must assign it either DMA
Channel 1 or DMA Channel 3. DMA 1 is recommended.
Magnetic Card Reader Mode [Special]
This field determines how magnetic card data is processed by the Eclipse
workstation. The selections are Magtek and Special.
Magtek
When Magtek mode is selected, card data is processed to appear as if it were
entered through a PC keyboard. However, this means that card data such as
the LRC (Longitudinal Redundancy Check) is not available to applications
that may require them. This mode supports MICROS employee and manager
sign-on cards.
