SIMM Installation

Your computer comes with 8MB of memory on two 4MB SIMMs. You can increase the memory up to 128MB using 1MB, 2MB, 4MB, 8MB, 16MB, and 32MB SIMMs (when readily available).
The SIMM sockets are organized in two banks (Bank 0 and Bank 1) consisting of two sockets each. You must install the same type of SIMM in a bank.
The SIMMs you install must be 32-bit or 36-bit, 72-pin, 70ns, tin-plated, fast-page mode, parity/no parity DRAM. The table below lists the 16MB and 32MB SIMMs that are approved for use in your system. You can install these SIMMs or their equivalents.

Tested Operating Environments

Although the system will run most software applications, the following operating environments have been tested for compatibility with this system.
Microsoft MS-DOS Novell DR DOS 6.0 Novell NetWare 2.2, 3.12, and 4.01 Novell NetWare Lite 1.1 IBM OS/22.1 SCO UNIX release 3.2, version 4.2 SCO Open Desktop 3.0 Microsoft Windows 3.0 and 3.1 Microsoft Windows for WorkGroups 3.11 Microsoft Windows NT 3.1 NextStep version 3.2 LAN Manager
This system has also received Novell’s ‘Yes, NetWare tested and approved” certification as a workstation and file server. As new environments become available, these also will be tested and certified.

System Power Requirements

If the power cord supplied with the system is not compatible with the electrical outlet, obtain a cord that meets these criteria :
0
The cord must be rated for at least 125% of the current rating of the AC voltage system.
0
The cord must be less than 4.5 meters (14.8 feet) long.
0
The connector that plugs into the electrical outlet must be an appropriately designed male grounding-type
connector.
0
The connector that plugs into the computer must be an IEC type CEE-22 female connector.
Do not use or attempt to modify the supplied AC power cord if it is not the type required for use in your region.
To avoid permanent damage to the computer, be sure the voltage selector switch is set to the correct input line voltage before you turn on the power. Verify that the voltage selector switch is set to the correct setting. The 115 VAC setting is appropriate for line source voltages between 100 and 120 VAC. If the line source voltage in your location is between 200 and 240 VAC, make sure you set the switch to 230 VAC.
To avoid damage to the system board or power supply, do not exceed a total of 145 Watts power draw.

Keyboard and Monitor

Even if you intend to use this system as a network file server,
you need to connect a monitor and a keyboard to complete the installation. You may remove them once the installation is complete.

Mouse and Keyboard

When connecting the mouse and keyboard, be careful to plug them into the proper ports. Although they are physically identical, they are not interchangeable, and damage may occur to the ports or the main system board.

Expansion Boards

If you are installing a video expansion board containing a
secondary controller, it must be an MDA or CGA card with no BIOS. You must use the computer’s built-in VGA controller as the primary controller.
You must install an expansion slot cover on any vacant expansion slots to maintain the electromagnetic emissions and cooling characteristics of the system.

IBM 16/4 Token Ring Network Adapters

EPSON Endeavor P60
Do not install Type 1 of the IBM 16/4 Token Ring network adapter in the computer because the adapter will not
correctly initialize. You can install the Type 3 adapter if you disable the appropriate shadow memory area and assign the correct IRQ 9 setting (if you use IRQ 2). For example, if you set the adapter’s ROM address to DC000h, the RAM address to D8000h, the RAM size to 16KB, and the IRQ setting to IRQ 2, you must make the following changes to these Advanced CMOS Setup options:
Disable Shadow Memory Base option: Disable Shadow Memory Size option:
ISA IRQ 9 option:
Set to D8000h Set to 32KB set to used
