Guidelines for Installing Applications

Keyboard

The TravelMate 3000 keyboard emulates all functions of an IBM AT-101 enhanced
keyboard. When installing an application program, select the IBM 10 1 or AT-enhanced
keyboard configuration.

Communication Ports

The serial port is Port 1, and the optional Internal Modem, if installed, is Port 2. When
installing an application program requiring communication support, select Port I or Port
2, as appropriate.

Processing Speed

Some application programs do not execute at the high speed (20 MHz) available with the
TravelMate 3000. Check the program documentation for the required processing speed
and, if necessary, change the speed using one of the following methods.

program that requires a different processing speed.
