AM-PC 4.0 Release Notes Page 5

DSS-10518-00, Rev. A01

The major sections in the AMPC.INI file are:

Falcon board address

Virtual terminal emulation setup

Subsystem disk and diskette drive definition

COM port interrupts and addresses

Non-SCSI CD-ROM driver definition

See the Falcon Owner’s Manual for details on AMPC.INI.

New Terminal Emulator for PC Console

AM-PC 4.0 emulates the terminal hardware directly (rather than the emulator being passed

TCRT numbers and then handling the emulation entirely on the PC side as was the case with

AM-PC 3.0). This means that non-Alpha Micro terminal drivers written for popular terminals

can be used directly under AM-PC 4.0 without modification.

The terminal emulations for the PC console supported by AM-PC 4.0 are:

Emulation

Name Emulates

AMPC Native PC-mode emulation

AM60 Standard field terminal

AM62 Field terminal (use either AM62 or AM62A under AMOS).

AM62C Color mode terminal

AM70 Color field terminal

AM72 Color mode terminal, no graphics

Virtual Terminal Support

AM-PC virtual terminal support allows you

to multi-task up to eight applications from

the PC console without using such programs

as MULTI™, FLiP™, and Polytracker™.

As you switch from one virtual terminal to

another, processing continues for the task

running on the terminal you left.

Using virtual terminals imposes very little overhead on system operation, because they are han-

dled entirely by the PC. Each virtual terminal can use a different terminal emulation so, for ex-

ample, virtual terminal 1 (VTM1) can use the AM-62 terminal emulation while VTM2 emulates

an AM-70 terminal. To set up virtual terminals, set the appropriate entries in the

AMPC.INI file, then modify your AMOSL.INI file to define the virtual terminals. At least one

virtual terminal, VTM1, must be defined in the AMPC.INI file; the emulation chosen for VTM1

is the emulation the PC console boots under. See the Falcon Owner’s Manual for details.

Multi-tasking Warning

As with any multi-tasking environment, be

careful not to run conflicting tasks on multiple

virtual terminals (for example, don’t run

DSKANA to analyze the disk on one virtual

terminal while you edit a file on that disk from

another virtual terminal.)
