  • Page 294 Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN): A world-wide communications network for delivering telephone and data services. It uses two types of communications channel: a B channel which carries voice, graphics and data at 64 Kbps, and a D channel which carries control information for signalling at 16 Kbps. A basic ISDN installation typically provides two B channels and one D channel.
  • Page 295 kilobyte (KB): A unit of data storage equal to 1024 bytes. Although kilo means 1000, for computers it refers to 1024, or 2 raised to the 10th power. See also byte. laser disc: Reflective-optical videodisc, recorded and read by laser light. legacy device: 1) A peripheral device or card that does not have Plug and Play capability built into it.
  • Page 296 math coprocessor: A special processor that performs arithmetic calculations on exponential numbers. Since a computer’s main processor calculates with integers, a math coprocessor can greatly improve system speed if you work with large spreadsheets or some graphics programs. Some processor chips include a built-in math coprocessor.
  • Page 297 monitor: An external device that uses rows and columns of pixels to display alphanumeric characters or graphical images. A cathode ray tube (CRT) is a common type of monitor. motherboard: The main printed circuit board in the computer. It contains the processor chip, memory and other major system components.

Examples of operating systems used by computers are MS-DOS, Windows 95 and Novell NetWare.
  • Page 300 path (full path): The unique identifier for a file consisting of the file name preceded by the drive, the top-level directory or folder and any lower-level directories or folders. peripheral devices: Computer devices other than the CPU and memory. A peripheral device may be internal (inside the case), or external (outside the case).
  • Page 301 program: A set of instructions that tells the computer what to do. Programs call for information (input), which is entered at the keyboard or by means of a pointing device, or obtained from a file. The computer processes the data, according to the instructions in the program, and sends the results to a device such as a screen, a printer or a disk.
  • Page 302 A Class A device is sufficient for office use. Class B is a more stringent classification applying to equipment for home use. Toshiba desktop and notebook computers are Class B devices, Toshiba servers are Class A. radio frequency interference (RFI) shield: A metal shield enclosing the printed circuit boards of the printer or computer to prevent interference with radio and TV reception.
  • Page 303 Examples of these system resources are memory, interrupt request (IRQ) lines, direct memory access (DMA) channels, and port addresses. On the server, you use the Toshiba System Setup Tool to configure system resources.
