IRQ settings must be devices have in order to interrupt the cpu .

Answer 2

The device setting should have in order to interrupt the CPU is the IRQ (interrupt request line) setting.

Explanation:

The setting is used in sending signal to the microprocessor to interrupt the CPU. By the use of a DIP switch, the IRQ is set for sending signal to interrupt the line thereby restricting the use of the device. Adding expansion boards can cause IRQ problems which are common but an alternative solution in the plug and play.
