<p>New article on the MESS dip switches</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>Selecting the hardware to emulate when using the [[MESS]] emulator.<br /> <br /> The MESS emulator permits you to choose and select the emulation of TI hardware by setting virtual DIP switches.<br /> <br /> With the emulator running, you can access the selection screen by pressing Scroll Lock and then Tab. Move the selector using your arrow keys etc to choose DIP Switches.<br /> <br /> You can now choose which RAM [[Memory Expansion Cards|memory expansion card]] you wish to have attached to your virtual TI system (eg TI 32k, Myark 512k etc)- move the selector to RAM then press the right arrow key to select. When finished move the selector down to select something else or return to the prior menu.<br /> <br /> You may also select which [[Floppy Disk and Hard Disk Controller Cards|disk controller]] you wish to emulate in a similar manner.<br /> <br /> Other hardware is selected as either on or off - [[speech|speech synthesiser]], [[IDE Project Card|IDE card]], [[Serial and Parallel Interface Cards|RS232 card]], [[HSGPL|HSGPL]], Mechatronic Mouse, [[Smart Media/USB Interface|USB-SM]] card and so on.<br /> <br /> Selecting differing hardware will in some cases allow you to use extra facilities in your programs. If a piece of emulated hardware is incompatible with a certain program you can select it to off.</div>
