This
option

made
permanent;
you

adjust
the
baud
rateeach
time
it
is required.
The CONFIG D Option
This
option
allows
you
to
change
your
disk access settings.
Different
disk
access
options
make
it
possible
for
you
to
protect
a
disk
drive
from
unauthorized
changes, or
to
choose
between
a slightly
raster
system with less
error
detection, or a slightly slower system in
Which
errors will be noted.
The
CONFIG D settings should only
be
changed by, or
at
the
specific request
of, an experienced programmer. Most of these settings have been
specified
at
the
factory
for
optimum
performance
under
normal
conditions;
they
are
changeable only with an eye
to
upward compatibility.

tabs, or
if
the "READ
