Setting up your personal computer is easy. Just follow the nine

steps in this chapter. When you finish setting up your computer, go on to Chapter 2

and follow the instructions there to run the Setup program. The Setup program updates the list of equipment installed in the computer and any time options are added or changed.

Unpacking

As you unpack the different parts of your computer system, be sure to inspect each piece. If anything is missing or looks damaged, contact the place where it was purchased for missing items or replacements. If you cannot obtain the necessary part of parts, call your TriGem Computer dealer for assistance. Please have the computer’s serial number ready when you call.

Figure l-l. Unpacking Your System

Setting Up Your

System

1-1

Besides this manual, you should have the following:

❏

The computer and power cord

❏

The Keyboard with attached cable

❏ MS-DOS diskettes ❏ GW-BASIC diskette

❏ MS-DOS User’s Guide ❏ GW-BASIC User’s Guide

In addition to these items, you need a compatible monitor to

use with the computer.

Be sure to keep your packing materials. They provide the best

protection for your computer if you need to transport it later.

Choosing a Location

Before you set up your computer, it is important to choose the right location. Select a spot that provides the following:

❏ A large, sturdy desk or table that can easily support the

weight of your system, including all of its components: Make sure the surface is hard and flat. Soft surfaces like beds and carpeted floors can generate static electricity, which may erase data on your disks and damage the computer’s circuitry. Soft surfaces also prevent proper ventilation.

❏ Good air circulation: Air must be able to move freely

under the system as well as behind it. Leave several inches of space around the computer to allow ventilation.

❏

Moderate environmental conditions: Protect your computer

from extremes in temperature, direct sunlight, or any other

1-2

Setting

Up Your System

source of heat. High humidity also hinders operation, so select a cool, dry area. Avoid dust and smoke, which can damage disks and disk drives and cause you to lose valuable

data.

❏

Appropriate power source: To prevent static charges, connect all your equipment to three-prong, grounded outlets. You need one outlet for the computer, one for the monitor, and additional outlets for a printer and any other peripherals.

If it has the appropriate power cord, you can plug the monitor into the auxiliary power outlet on the back panel of the computer, reducing the number of wall outlets you need. (The current required by the peripheral must not exceed 1 amp.) If you need more outlets, you may want to buy a power strip-available at any electronics store-to provide extra outlets. A power strip with surge suppression is recommended.

No electromagnetic interference: Locate your system away

❏

from any electrical device, such as a telephone, that generates an electromagnetic field.

Connecting a Monitor

The video display monitor is the device used by the computer

to communicate with you. Your software will use the screen to

display information, such as prompts, text, graphics (charts and

pictures), etc. Several types of monitor are available as options. A typical

video display system provides a high resolution monochrome (green or amber screen) screen display. Your computer can be with either monochrome or color video monitors, EGA or VGA monitor.

Setting Up Your System

1-3

In addition to the display monitor itself, the video system includes a video controller board. This board generates the letters, numbers, and graphics symbols displayed on the monitor screen.

Connectors are provided for the display type that is supported by the board (monochrome, RGB color, high resolution EGA, VGA etc.). Certain boards support more than one type of display, and may provide a switch to select either color or monochrome modes.

The procedure you use to connect your monitor to the computer depends on the type of monitor you have. See your monitor manual for detailed instructions, or follow these general guidelines:

Place your monitor on top of or near the computer. It is easiest to connect the monitor cable if you are facing the back panels of both the monitor and the computer.

If necessary, connect the monitor cable to the monitor. (Some monitors come with permanently attatched cables.)

Connect the monitor cable to the video connector on the back of the computer, as shown below. If the plug has retaining screws, tighten them securely.

1-4

Setting Up Your System

Figure 1-2. Connecting the Monitor

Plug the other end of monitor’s power cord into an

Connecting a Printer, Mouse, or Modem

The computer has a parallel interface and two serial interfaces on the back panel, so you can easily connect a printer or other type of device with either type of interface.

For example, you can use the parallel port to connect a parallel printer (most printers have a parallel interface). You can use the serial port to connect a serial printer, a serial mouse, or an external modem.

Setting Up Your

System

1-5

Follow the steps in this section to connect a printer or other

peripheral device to either the parallel or serial interface.

Using the Parallel Interface

The parallel interface on your computer is Centronics compatible and uses a 25-pin connector. To connect a parallel printer to your computer, you need an IBM-compatible printer cable. If you are not sure which one you need, or whether you have the right one, check with the store where you purchased the printer.

Once you have the correct printer cable, follow these steps to connect the printer to the parallel interface on the computer.

Place the printer next to your computer.

One end of the printer cable has a 25-pin, male connector. Connect this end to the parallel port on the back panel of the computer, as shown below.

If the plug has retaining screws, tighten them securely.

the

Printer

Connect the other end of the cable to the printer, as

3. shown below. If the printer has retaining clips on each side of the printer port, squeeze the clips together to secure the

cable.

Plug the printer’s power cord into an electrical outlet.

Using the Serial Interface

If you have a serial printer, modem, mouse, or any other peripheral with a serial interface, you can connect it to one of

two serial (RS-232C) ports on the back of the computer. Your computer uses IBM-compatible, 9-pin, male connector, so be sure you have the proper cable. If you are not sure which one you need, or whether you have the right one, check with the store where you bought the cable.

To connect a serial device, follow the same steps outlined above for a parallel device, but connect the cable to the serial port, shown below.

Figure 1-4. Serial Port

Setting Up Your System

1-7

Setting up the serial port for a printer

If you are using a serial printer but your software does not support a serial printer, you must do two things before you can print:

❏

Set up the data transmission parameters for the serial port.

❏

Tell the computer to redirect printer data from the parallel port to the serial port.

Connecting the Power Cord

Follow these steps to connect the power cord:

Insert the power cord into the AC inlet on the computer’s back panel, as shown below. To avoid an electric shock, be sure to plug the cord into the computer before plugging it

into the wall socket.

Plug the other end of the power cord into a three-prong,

grounded electrical outlet.
