VControl Settings

Hi Gunnar,

I was wondering, it is not clear from the help in Control.

Are the choices we select using Control (like IDE speed etc) permanent across boots and power off?

Also, it is not clear which options are the default state, and there is no way to see the current state.

Nothing is remembered after a power off, so you need to run VControl inside your SS with the options you need.

Thx Martin,

Do you happen to know which are the default states?

ie.

Is the default Slow IDE and Slow SD?

So  for instance, I should have a Control line in SS to switch them to Fast?

Not 100% sure about the SD speed, but fairly sure IDE mode is defaulted to Slow and needs to be enabled in the Vcontrol line in the SS.
