2500 XL/2 (250-4075) Features Faxback Doc. # 1482 16MHz Intel 80286 Gives you true Intel 80286 processing Microprocessor power. The 80286 microprocessor is a 16-bit CPU. Industry Standard Ensures compatibility with hardware and Architecture (ISA) software built to the IBM standard for PC/XT/AT. MS-DOS 3.3 Provides instant access to commonly used in ROM features of this operating system. MS-DOS and Lets you choose the operating system that MS OS/2 compatibility best supports your software 101-key enhanced Provides easy typing with a standard 101 keyboard key layout. Features `auto repeat` to reduce the number of multiple keystrokes. High-capacity, Enables you to read from and write to 3 1/2-inch diskette drive both (720KB) and high density (1.44MB), 3 1/2" diskettes. A high density, 3 1/2" diskette stores a large volume of information and easily fits into your pocket Three disk drive bays Enable you to install storage devices such bays as hard drives, diskette drives, or tape cartridge systems. The high-capacity, 3 1/2" diskette drive is installed in one of these bays. Three 16-bit standard Permit installation of up to three 16-bit expansion slots adapters. These are full-sized, 13" slots. 16-bit adapters have a higher data transfer rate than 8-bit adapters. On-board Provides the high resolution and many VGA-compatible colors of extended VGA modes. Super video with Supermodes. VGA features 16-color, 1024 X 768 VGA modes graphics and 132-column text. Can emulate the MCGA, EGA, CGA, MDA, and Hercules standards. Requires a VGA analog monitor (color or monochrome) DeskMate in ROM Provides a friendly, easy-to-learn interface to a variety of useful applications. DeskMate manuals are shipped with the computer. Music and Sound Enables you to record, store, and play hardware sophisticated music and sound. Include an analog-to-digital/digital-to-analog converter, a microphone connector, and a headphone connector. The Music and Sound manual is shipped with the computer. 1MB of dynamic Enables you to run a variety of software. Random access This memory is permanently installed on memory (DRAM) the main logic board, leaving the on board sockets free for the installation of additional memory. Built in Diskette Controller Saves you the cost of a diskette drive controller board and the use of a 16-bit slot when you add diskette drives to your system. This controller supports up to two diskette drives. Built-in 16-bit Enable you to add convenient, reliable SmartDrive (IDE) hard disk storage. Installing a SmartDrive is fast and easy. SmartDrives are designed to control circuitry provide maximum performance at minimum cost. The built-in controller supports up to two hard disk drives. Built-in mouse port Saves you the cost of a PS/2-style mouse (mini-din connector) board and the use of a 16-bit slot. Built-in serial port Saves you the cost of a serial expansion adapter and the use of a l6-bit slot when you connect a serial device such as a serial mouse or an external modem. Built-in headphone Enable you to connect a microphone or a and Microphone connectors line level audio input device. The headphone connector features simulated stereo and supports the connection of a line-level audio output device. The digital volume control of the built-in speaker or optional headphone can be adjusted by pressing a sequence of keys on the keyboard. Built-in parallel Saves you the cost of a parallel port expansion adapter and the use of a 16-bit slot when you connect a parallel printer of other parallel device. This port can be set for unidirectional or bidirectional data transfer. 2-kilobit EEPROM Stores information about your system configuration. You can change the information stored in the EEPROM (electronically erasable programmable read-only memory) by running the Setup utility, SetupXL2. Battery-backed Maintains the system date and time, even internal clock when the computer is turned off. Your operating system records the time and date when a file is created or changed. The clock's battery maintains current configuration settings. Keylock Locks the expansion adapter cover and carriage to secure the contents of the system unit. OPTIONS Additional Give you a variety of storage options, storage devices including: --High capacity and standard capacity diskette drives, in 3 1/2" and 5 1/4" sizes --Internal hard disk drives (3 1/2" or 5 1/4") --Tape and/or disk cartridge systems Memory upgrade Increases system memory on the main logic kits board or on a 16-bit memory expansion adapter, using 256KB or 1 MB SIMMs. Video memory Increases the video memory on the main upgrade kit logic board from 256KB to 512KB. This additional video memory enables you to use more of the Super VGA modes supported by the on-board video. 10 MHz Intel 80287 Increases the numerical processing capab- math coprocessor ility of your computer. A math coprocessor can process numeric data more quickly than the CPU. Modem Transmits and receives data through and ordinary telephone line. Digital scanner Converts printed text and graphics to a digital form. FAX adapter Transmits and receives scanned graphic images through an ordinary telephone line. CD-ROM drive Accesses the enormous storage capabilities of read-only disks. Multiple-frequency Enables you to use additional Super VGA monitor modes. Connect a multiple-frequency monitor or 8514/A-compatible multiple frequency monitor. To use some Super VGA graphics modes, you must also install a video memory upgrade kit. PS/2-style mouse Enables you to choose program and menu options quickly. Move the mouse to position the cursor and highlight your selection. Then click the left mouse button. (smc-09/13/93)
