To turn an option on/off or to select option settings (if any), press
ENTER when the option is displayed. Pressing ENTER repeatedly will
cycle through all choices for the displayed option. When your desired
choice is displayed, either press ¯ or ˘ to go on to a different option,
or press CLEAR to return to the Main Menu, and then MENU to
return to normal game play. For details on each of these options, see
the referenced section numbers. Note: When you reset the computer
for a new game, most of your selected options are carried over to the
next game. The only exception is Two Player Mode, which automati-
cally returns to Player vs. Computer whenever you start a new game.
4.1 Two Player Mode
Options: player: P-C (Player vs. Computer)
player: P-P (Player vs. Player)
Normally, the computer automatically answers with a countermove
after you enter your move. If you activate player: P-P, however,
you can enter any number of moves one by one, without allowing the
computer to answer. This feature can be used in a number of interest-
ing ways:
• Play through master games. Press ENTER to see what the
computer would do in any position!
• Keep records of your own chess games. When a game is over,
play to certain board positions to see how other moves or
different strategies might have affected the outcome.
• Study opening lines by entering them manually.
• Play against a friend, with the computer acting as a referee. The
computer will check all moves for legality and keep track of the
time for both sides!
If you're playing against another person and you want to see what
the computer would do in your position, press ENTER to have the
computer make your next move. After the computer has moved, Two
Player Mode remains in effect, and you can continue your game. Note
that this option automatically reverts to its default setting of Player vs.
