Epson Equity 320SX PLUS - Manual (Page 47)

EMS Size
The EMS Size option provides a simple way to set the amount
of memory you want to use as expanded. Expanded memory
can be used by application programs conforming to the
Lotus/Intel
®
/Microsoft
®
Expanded Memory Specification
(LIM EMS). The Equity 320sx PLUS is compatible with
version 4.0 of the LIM EMS.
Once you have set the expanded memory size with the EMS
Size option, you also need to use a memory manager to
convert the memory to expanded memory. Many application
programs come with a memory manager and there are a
variety of other memory managers available. If you already
have a memory manager (such as the one provided with
MS-DOS), you should use that manager along with EMS Size.
If you do not have another memory manager, you can use
the EMM386SX.SYS memory manager which is on your
Reference diskette. See “Using Memory Beyond 640KB” in
Chapter 4 for instructions.
Note
Do not use EMS Size to define expanded memory if you
plan to install Windows on your system. See your
Windows documentation for more information.
The total amount of your computer’s extended memory
appears in the information window. You can define how
much of it you want to use as expanded memory in units of
256KB.
