PSB No: S-0098 Page: 7 of 8 Q. Will the APEX 200 work in foreign countries? A. The APEX 200 computer can be used in both the United States and internationally simply by selecting the appropriate input voltage on the voltage selection switch located on the rear of the unit. The APEX 200 will operate on either 115VAC or 230VAC at 50/60 Hz power. Most monitors and printers are not designed to operate on dual voltages and will be damaged if plugged into the wrong AC voltage. This applies to the Apex monitors and printers as well. You should use a heavy duty step down transformer to convert 230VAC to 115VAC for these types of products. Q. What streamer tape drives can be used for high speed backup? A. The APEX 200 has been tested with the following file backup units: Backup Diskit - 60MB, Model TEX- 60 (Idea Associates) Everex Stream - 20MB, Model 4.02 (Everex Systems, Inc.) Mountain Series 4000 Filesafe (Mountain Computer, Inc.) Tecmar QT - 60e (Tecmar Inc.) Tallgrass TG - 4060 + (Tallgrass Technologies Corp.) Q. Are there any extension cables available for the APEX 200 enhanced keyboard? A. Epson does not provide extension cables due to FCC restrictions. Third patty extension cables will work although they will not have a 90 degree angle connector. Q. What are the CPU wait states for the APEX 200? A. The default wait state for the APEX 200 I/O bus is 1, adjustable to 4, 3, or 2 by setting jumpers J2 and J3 on the ANDRO board according to the User's Guide. The system memory, (RAM and ROM) defaults to one wait state adjustable to two by setting jumper J1 to B on the ANDRO board.
