manual abstract
Because the System Setup program is stored in NVRAM, any settings remain in effect until you change them again. system.ini file — A start-up file for the Windows operating system. When you start Windows, it consults the system.ini file to determine a variety of options for the Windows operating environment. Among other things, the system.ini file records which video, mouse, and keyboard drivers are installed for Windows. TCP/IP — Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. termination — Some devices (such as the last device at each end of a SCSI cable) must be terminated to prevent reflections and spurious signals in the cable. When such devices are connected in a series, you may need to enable or disable the termination on these devices by changing jumper or switch settings on the devices or by changing settings in the configuration software for the devices. Glossary UNIX — Universal Internet Exchange. UNIX, the precursor to Linux, is an operating system written in the C programming language. uplink port — A port on a network hub or switch used to connect to other hubs or switches without requiring a crossover cable. UPS — Uninterruptible power supply. A battery-powered unit that automatically supplies power to your system in the event of an electrical failure. USB — Universal Serial Bus. A USB connector provides a single connection point for multiple USB-compliant devices, such as mice and keyboards. USB devices can be connected and disconnected while the system is running. utility — A program used to manage system resources— memory, disk drives, or printers, for example. UTP — Unshielded twisted pair. A type of wiring used to connect systems in a business or home to a telephone line. V — Volt(s). VAC — Volt(s) alternating current. VDC — Volt(s) direct current. VGA — Video graphics array. VGA and SVGA are video standards for video adapters with greater resolution and color display capabilities than previous standards. video adapter — The logical circuitry that provides (in combination with the monitor) your system’s video capabilities. A video adapter may be integrated into the system board or may be an expansion card that plugs into an expansion slot. video driver — A program that allows graphics-mode application programs and operating systems to display at a chosen resolution with the desired number of colors. Video drivers may need to match the video adapter installed in the system. video memory — Most VGA and SVGA video adapters include memory chips in addition to your system’s RAM. The amount of video memory installed primarily influences the number of colors that a program can display (with the appropriate video drivers and monitor capabilities). video resolution — Video resolution (800 x 600, for example) is expressed as the number of pixels across by the number of pixels up and down. To display a program at a specific graphics resolution, you must install the appropriate video drivers and your monitor must support the resolution. W — Watt(s). WH — Watt-hour(s). win.ini file — A start-up file for the Windows operating system. When you start Windows, it consults the win.ini file to determine a variety of options for the Windows operating environment. The win.ini file also usually includes sections that contain optional settings for Windows application programs that are installed on the hard drive. Windows 2000 — An integrated and complete Microsoft Windows operating system that does not require MS-DOS and that provides advanced operating system performance, improved ease of use, enhanced workgroup functionality, and simplified file management and browsing. Windows Powered — A Windows operating system designed for use on NAS systems. For NAS systems, the Windows Powered operating system is dedicated to file service for network clients. Windows Server 2003 — A set of Microsoft software technologies that enable software integration through the use of XML Web services. XML Web services are small reusable applications written in XML that allow data to be communicated between otherwise unconnected sources. XML — Extensible Markup Language. XML is a way to create common information formats and to share both the format and the data on the World Wide Web, intranets, and elsewhere. ZIF — Zero insertion force.
