Apple IIe Card - Manual (Page 37)

The AppleShare card should be installed (usually in slot 7).
Startup should be set either to Scan or to the slot in which AppleShare is
installed (usually slot 7).
From now on, whenever you start or restart the Apple IIe, you'll follow the
usual network log-on procedure, as described in the instructions that come
with the AppleShare Workstation Card and the AppleShare File Server software.
Using files from the file server
Using Apple IIe files on a network file server with a Macintosh LC and the
Apple IIe Card is the same as using them on an Apple IIe computer. You simply
use the Logon program, as described in the instructions that come with the
AppleShare Workstation Card.
Personalizing Apple IIe Work Environment
You use the Apple IIe Option Panel to adjust some aspects of the Apple IIe
Card's operation. Most of the adjustments are made in the General Controls
panel, the panel that appears automatically whenever you open the Option
Panel.
Most of the settings in the General Controls panel take effect immediately
and remain active whenever you start up the IIe Startup program, until you
change them again.
Changing the processing speed setting
You can change the processing speed of the Apple IIe Card. The Option Panel
provides two Speed settings: normal and fast. The Normal setting represents
the normal processing speed for an Apple IIe computer. The Fast setting is up
to twice as fast as the Normal setting. (The actual speed varies among
programs, depending on a number of factors -- principally, the amount of
graphics processing a program requires.)
Depending on the type of program you're running, you may benefit from
changing the Speed setting. For instance, a spreadsheet program would benefit
from the added processing speed by performing calculations more quickly.
Other programs, however, may be less effective running under the Fast
setting. For instance, many games may run too quickly. And programs that
require precise time-interval measurements -- such as music programs -- may
need the normal Apple IIe processing speed to run properly.
If you're uncertain what Speed setting is most appropriate for the program
you want to run, try the Fast setting first. If the program doesn't run as
expected, change the setting back to Normal.
To change processing speed, follow these steps:
1. Press Control-Command-Esc.
The Option Panel appears, with the General Controls panel displayed. The
pointer changes to a crosshair when you place it in the General Controls
panel.
