- * * * * * * * UPDATED FEATURES FOR MOUSE DRIVER * * * * * * *
- Command format:
- MOUSE [[/Dynamic Resolution] [/Mouse Port]] | /? | /H | OFF
- Dynamic Resolution : [ D | T | Q | U | V | Rn ]
- Mouse Port : [ P | B | B3 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | Np,i]
-
- The following mouse parameters have been added to Mouse driver
-
- A. Dynamic Resolution ( /m, /Rn )
- -------------------------
- With this parameter, an exciting new concept in Mouse control
- has been developed. A precise location on the screen can be
- selected with greater ease and speed.
-
- Movement of the cursor across the screen is based on the tra-
- vel count and speed of the movement of the mouse. It is not
- only measured in terms of physical distance traveled by the
- mouse, but also checking how quick the mouse is moved by your
- hand. The faster the movement of the mouse, the further the
- cursor movement on the screen. Therefore, less hand movement
- is involved.
-
- You may choose the desired resolution according to the
- requirements of your applications.
-
- To select the resolution, type the command:
-
- A >MOUSE /m ( Where m = D, T, U, Q and V,
- D : 2 times
- T : 3 times
- Q : 4 times
- U : 5 times
- V : 10 times.
- If omitted, the dynamic resolution is off.)
-
- A >MOUSE /Rn ( Where n = 0 to 9, 0 reset the dynamic
- resolution.)
-
- For example, if you set the resolution on the double times,
- enter the followings : MOUSE /R2 or MOUSE /D
-
-
- B. PS/2 mode ( /P )
- ------------------
- This option tell the mouse driver to install the mouse on a
- mouse port. Which is compatible with IBM PS/2 pointing device
- only.
-
-
- C. Bus Mouse mode ( /B, /B3 )
- --------------------------
- These two options is to tell the mouse driver to run the Bus
- mouse. /B is define for microsoft bus mouse with two buttons
- and /B3 is for 3 buttons'.
-
-
- D. Communication Port ( n )
- ------------------------
- There are four general purpose communication ports generally
- used on your personal computer. The relative address and IRQ
- no. are listed in the table below:
-
- -------+----------+------------------+----------
- n | COM no. | Address in HEX. | IRQ no.
- -------+----------+------------------+----------
- 1 | COM 1 | 3F8 | IRQ 4
- 2 | COM 2 | 2F8 | IRQ 3
- 3 | COM 3 | 3E8 | IRQ 4
- 4 | COM 4 | 2E8 | IRQ 3
- -------+----------+------------------+----------
-
- The Serial Mouse can be set to any one of the four
- communication ports, ( COM1 to COM4 ). The command format is
-
- A >MOUSE /n ( Where n = 1 to 4 ).
-
- For example, if you install the mouse at COM1 ( default sett-
- ing ), enter the following: A >MOUSE /1 or A >MOUSE
-
- If you want to install the mouse at COM4 enter the following:
- A >MOUSE /4
-
-
- E. I/O Port Address & IRQ no. ( /Np,i )
- -----------------------------------
- This new feature is provided for the professional user when
- their I/O port for the Serial Mouse is different from
- the default settings as described in the table above. They
- may follow the steps listed below to select hardware interr-
- upt ( IRQ no. , range from 3 to 15) and the I/O port address
- install the mouse driver. (I/O port address ranges from 200
- to 3F8) This option is not case sensitive : any combination
- of uppercase and lowercase letter is acceptable.
-
-
- 1). To select I/O port address and IRQ no., enter:
- A >MOUSE /N3E0,3 ( Setup driver, select 3E0 (Hex) port
- address and IRQ no. 3)
-
- !!! WARNING !!! If the wrong setting is used or not set
- it cause the mouse driver fails to be
- installed.
-
- F. Multiple parameter
- ------------------
- It is also possible to select the resolution and the commun-
- ication port at the same time. The sequence of selecting the
- multiple parameter is:
- 1). Resolution ( /m or /Rn)
- 2). Communication port ( /n or /a,i )
-
- Ex: A >MOUSE /d/N3E8,4
- This case provides faster movement of the cursor on the
- screen and the mouse port address is 3E8 (Hex) in which IRQ4
- is assigned.
-
- Ex: A >MOUSE /r3/N279,4
- The I/O address is 279 (Hex) and IRQ4 is assigned. The
- movement of cursor is 3 times faster than the movement of
- mouse.
-
- Ex: A >MOUSE /2/R2
- This command connects your mouse to the standard communicat-
- ion port COM2 and the movement of the cursor become 2 times
- faster than the movement of mouse.
-
-
- Ex: A >MOUSE /4
- This command connects your mouse to the standard communicat-
- ion port COM4 ( The address and IRQ no. are found in table
- of section B ) where default dynamic resolution is being
- used.
-
-
- G. Default option :
- ----------------
-
- Ex : C >MOUSE
-
- The default dynamic resolution in this driver is under "OFF".
-
- Condition ( /R0 ) :
- The priority of the default mouse is as follows :
- 1). PS/2 mode
- 2). Bus mouse ( with microsoft compatible )
- 3). Serial mode at com1
- The driver will search each mode base on this priority
-
-
- H. uninstall ( OFF )
- -------------------------
- This option removes the mouse driver from memory.
-
- Ex : C>MOUSE OFF
-
-
- I. Install batch file
- ---------------------------------------
- The automatic installation program -- INSTALL.BAT might create
- a sub-directory different from what is written on manual,
- however this doesn't cause any differences on mouse operation.
- We therefore advise users not to care about this.
-
-
- J. Help ( /H, /h or /? )
- -------------------------
- This option displays all of the options and the command list.
-
-
- K. Setting acceleration curves ( /An )
- -------------------------
- This option will setting mouse driver acceleration curves table.
-
- Ex : C>MOUSE /A1 ; Set acceleration curves equ slow speed.
-
- ( Where n = 1, 2, 3, and 4,
- 1 : Slow.
- 2 : Moderate.
- 3 : Fast.
- 4 : Unaccelerated.
- Default is Moderate.)
-
- L. Setting language number for display message( /Ln )
- -------------------------
-
- Ex : C>MOUSE /L0 ; Set ENGLISH message display.
-
- ( Where n = 0, 1, 2, 3, 6, and 8,
- 0 : ENGLISH message display.
- 1 : FRENCH message display.
- 2 : DUTCH message display.
- 3 : GERMAN message display.
- 6 : SPANISH message display.
- 8 : ITALIAN message display.
- Default is ENGLISH display .)
