; 3: Both methods 1 and 2 above are enabled.
;
; Run the “DBWIN.EXE” utility that comes with the Windows 3.1 SDK to view
; debug output. Clear one output error as Windows starts since NORAPM.DLL
; tries to output debug data before DBWIN can load.

ApmDebugOutput=0

; Enables Real Time Clock (RTC) diagnostics. Default is 0. Enables the RTC
; diagnostics built into NORAPM.DLL. This entry is a DECIMAL representation
; of several bit-mapped options. A diagram of the currently defined fields
; (separated into nibbles for readability) is laid out below. A description
; of each defined field follows:
;
; 0000 | 000M | 0000 | LLLE
;
;

E) Bit 0: Set to 1 to enable RTC checking. Currently, clock is checked

;

every 10 seconds for regression and writes by other applications.

;

Add 1 to the entry to enable this setting. If this entry is not

;

set, no other options have any effect.

;
;

L) Bits 1–3: Sets the dialog level for clock regression messages. See

;

the ApmEventDialogs setting above. Set to 0 to enable regression

;

warnings at all times. Set to 1–7 to limit clock warnings. Add

;

(level * 2) to entry to set a level greater than 0.

;
;

M) Bit 8: Display a system-model dialog and lock up the system whenever

;

clock regression occurs. This setting could result in data

;

corruption or loss, since it forces a reboot if the clock goes

;

backwards. Typical causes of clock regression are setting the

;

date and time via the Control Panel, or communications software

;

that attempts to synchronize the clock on the HHC with a remote

;

system’s clock. Use of this setting is recommended only for

;

debugging. Add 256 to the entry to enable this option.

;
;

Bits 4–7 and 9–15 are currently undefined and should be set to 0.

;
; Example settings:
;

0: Default, no clock checking.

;

1: Enable clock checking, always display clock regression messages.

;

15: Enable clock checking, only display clock regression messages if

;

ApmEventDialogs setting is >= 7.

;

257: Enable clock checking, display message and lock up system upon clock

;

regression.

ApmCheckRTC=0

; Disables the broadcast of Norand-defined power management events to DOS
; drivers and TSR’s. Windows drivers and applications are not affected.
; This sidesteps broken behavior in some DOS TSR’s and drivers that monitor
; power management event broadcasts. Specifically the current SystemSoft
; PCMCIA card management software. The problem is that DOS drivers only
; examine bottom 8 bits of the event ID. OEM-defined events are 16 bits,
; thus causing the broken DOS drivers to misidentify events and act
; strangely. This entry defaults to 1, but should be set to 0, if you are
; using SystemSoft PCMCIA card drivers. Also, if “ApmFixSystemSoft” entry
; (below) is 1, this entry is forced to 0.
ApmDosOemEvents=0

; This entry enables workarounds required by current SystemSoft PCMCIA
; software (see ApmDosOemEvents above). This switch currently makes these
; changes to normal APM 1.1 behavior:
;

1. SUSPEND event notifications to DOS are converted to USER_SUSPEND

;

events. Windows drivers and applications are not affected. This

;

entry defaults to 0 if not present but should be set to 1 if you are

;

using the SystemSoft PCMCIA card drivers, until further notice.

ApmFixSystemSoft=1
