Apple IIe Card - Manual (Page 49)

Navigation in the Apple IIe Environment
You use the Apple IIe Option Panel to navigate through the Apple IIe
environment, and between the Apple IIe environment and the Macintosh desktop.
Opening the Option Panel
To open the Option Panel from the Apple IIe environment, you must press three
keys at once: the Control key, the Command key, and the Escape key. This key
combination is usually written Control-Command-Esc. On typical Macintosh
keyboards, all three keys are on the bottom row.
!! IMPORTANT: Don't open the Option Panel while Apple IIe programs are
printing. Sometimes opening the Option Panel can disrupt printing. !!
A shortcut for opening the Option Panel from the Macintosh environment. If
you want the Option Panel to open as soon as the IIe Startup program
launches, hold down the Option key just after you double-click the IIe
Startup icon. Keep the Option key held down until the Option Panel opens.
Limiting access to the Option Panel
If you need to protect the Apple IIe Option Panel -- in school labs or in
work areas where several users share the same computer, for instance -- you
can do so in one of three ways, as explained in the next three sections.
Locking the preferences file. While the preferences file is locked, users
will not have access to any of the panels used to change Option Panel
settings, though they can still click the Option Panel buttons. You can lock
and unlock the preferences file as often as you like.
To lock the IIe Prefs file, follow these steps:
Before you begin: Make sure you're in the Macintosh environment.
1. Select the IIe Prefs file by clicking its icon once.
2. Choose Get Info from the File menu.
3. Click the Locked checkbox until an X appears in it.
4. Close the Info window.
Click the close box.
Purchasing and installing an optional jumper cable. To protect the Option
Panel settings more permanently, you can purchase an optional jumper to use
with the Apple IIe Card. Once your dealer installs the jumper on the
Macintosh LC logic board, users will still have access to the Apple IIe
Option Panel buttons, but they will not have access to any of the panels used
to change Option Panel settings. See your authorized Apple dealer for more
information.
Hiding the preferences file. To prevent someone from accidentally throwing
away the IIe Prefs file, you can move the file to the System Folder on your
startup disk or to the Preferences folder inside your System Folder.
If you're a floppy disk startup person, drag the IIe Prefs file into the
