This is a simple procedure that you must do at least once. You may need to do it again later if you want to change something. The Setup program lets you set (or change) the following: l Real-time clock's date or time l Backlight period for the backlit model screen l Default settings for the serial (RS-232C) port or ports. The information you define with the Setup program is stored in the CMOS RAM, which is permanent because it is backed up by a battery. Whenever you turn on the computer, it searches the CMOS RAM for the correct installation information. If the computer discovers a difference between the information in CMOS RAM and your computer, it prompts you to run the Setup program. To start the Setup program, insert the working copy of your reference diskette in drive A. At the A> prompt, type: setup 1-22 Setting Up Your System

Running the Setup Program
If this is the first time your Equity LT has been
used, you need to run the Setup program on the reference
diskette to give the computer information about the way it is
set up. This is a simple procedure that you must do at least
once. You may need to do it again later if you want to change
something.
The Setup program lets you set (or change) the following:
l
Real-time clock’s date or time
l
Backlight period for the backlit model screen
l
Default settings for the serial (RS-232C) port or ports.
The information you define with the Setup program is
stored in the CMOS RAM, which is permanent because it is
backed up by a battery. Whenever you turn on the computer,
it searches the CMOS RAM for the correct installation
information. If the computer discovers a difference between the
information in CMOS RAM and your computer, it prompts
you to run the Setup program.
To
start the Setup program, insert the working copy of
your reference diskette in drive A. At the A> prompt, type:
setup
