16 Appendix A Configuration Options
Kingston Technology Company MCMaster User’s Guide - Rev. B06
Flush Mode
Default: Mode 1
Option:
Mode 2
Mode 3
This option controls the method that the MCMaster uses to maintain hardware
cache coherency when the MCMaster is being used with other busmaster
adapters including a number of SCSI disk controllers.
For most installations where there are no other busmaster adapters in the
system, Mode 1, the default, will function perfectly well. If another busmaster
is present, select Mode 2. IBM SCSI controllers require Mode 2. In a small
number of cases, if Mode 2 does not perform correctly, use Mode 3.
Keyboard Emulation
Default: Hardware
Option:
Software
The MCMaster incorporates hardware emulation of the system's keyboard
controller. Since this is a new feature, we have included the option to disable
this hardware emulation and use the same software emulation that was used on
previous generation busmaster upgrade products. This is strictly a precaution
against unforeseen circumstances. In our testing, we have not yet found this to
be necessary. However, if your application experiences unexpected keyboard
behavior, try switching to software emulation.
