About the Vulcan

What's Included with the Vulcan

On the Vulcan

The Vulcan comes preformatted and set into ProDOS partitions.

We’ve included GS/OS version 4.0 on the first partition of the

IIGS Vulcan. Included in the System Drivers folder is Vulcan’s

native mode driver which speeds up Vulcan’s access time

dramatically. The driver is described in App. B.

Backup II is a ProDOS backup utility for backing up the ProDOS

partitions.

The Partition Manager program (PART.MANAGER) allows you

to configure the Vulcan in up to 16 different segments. Any

partition can be set up to run under ProDOS, DOS 3.3, Pascal, or

CP/M. Also use the Partition Manager to resize, format and

activate partitions as well as select from which partition to boot.

Introduction - Getting Started V

Also the ProDOS 8 version provided on the Vulcan and the

floppy disks has been patched to allow ProDOS 8 to use four

ProDOS partitions from the Vulcan instead of only two.

The Separate Disks

The 3.5” disk is a backup of the files necessary to boot GS/OS. It

also contains the Vulcan’s utilities such as the native mode

driver, partition manager, Backup II, and a modified ProDOS 8.

If you want to reconfigure your partitions, you won’t have to

backup our utilities.

The 5.25” disk is two sided. The front side contains Vulcan’s

ProDOS 8 utilities including Backup II, Partition Manager, Park

Heads, and ProDOS patcher. The back side has the DOS 3.3

system and various DOS 3.3 utilities including Æ’s version of

FID, which support the Vulcan. (For a more complete list, see p.

34.)

The Vulcan's Fan

The Vulcan’s fan keeps the power supply and hard drive cool. If

you have several powerful cards in your computer however,

strongly consider a separate cooling fan for your system.

The Power Supply

The Vulcan’s built-in power supply replaces your computer’s

power supply. Applied Engineering designed Vulcan’s power

supply to be both more compact and more powerful than the

one included with your computer.

CHAPTER ONE

IIGS Installation

Installation Procedure

You’ll need no special tools to install the Vulcan. Simply follow

the instructions below.

1) Open Computer

Press in the two latches at the rear of the case with your

forefingers while using your thumbs to push the lid up and

towards you. (See picture following.)

Remove the IIGS cover

2) Remove Power Supply

i) Remove slot one card.

If you have a card installed into slot 1, you’ll need to remove it to

give yourself room to reach the internal power plug. Refer to

your slot 1 card’s manual for proper removal.

ii) Unplug external cord from back of computer.

This is the cord that runs from the back of the computer to the

wall socket. Unplug it from the back of the computer and from

the wall socket as well.

iii) Unplug internal cord from motherboard.

The internal power cord is the multi-wire cord running from

the power supply toward the back of the motherboard. Pull up

firmly on the white plastic part of the plug.

Ch. 1 -IIGS Installation

Unplug Internal Cord

iv) Gently pull back on tab at bottom front of power supply.

A small flatblade screwdriver may keep you from breaking a

nail.

Pull Back Tab

v) Lift out power supply.

You may want to store the power supply in the Vulcan’s box.

3) Remove Vulcan from Packing.

4) Check Voltage Setting

The switch setting on back of the Vulcan must be set to the

proper voltage (115 in the United States).

2Vulcan

5) Insert Vulcan

i) Insert bock end first.

Align the three holes in the back of the Vulcan with the three

prongs in the back of the computer.

ii) Snap down Into front tab.

Push down on the front of the Vulcan until the plastic tab on the

computer case snaps into the hole at the bottom front of the

Vulcan. You should hear the tab snap into place.

Snap Vulcan Into Front Tab

6) Plug Internal Power Cord Into Motherboard.

The Vulcan’s internal power cord plugs into the motherboard in

the same place as the old power supply’s cord. The connector’s

tab should be toward the right side of the computer.

•Note: Do not force the connector; it will plug in easily

in one direction.
