Loading Software Through the Parallel Port
This is a legacy method to load software, and
should only be used in situations where the CF
method cannot be used.
A host PC with an EPP 1.9 capable parallel port is
required to successfully load new software on to the
Logicube Omniclone Xi™ with the parallel port
connection.
The host PC must also contain a partition that can
be accessed when booted from a floppy diskette
(i.e. a FAT16 or a FAT 32 type partition). Please
verify that the host PC has a compatible port by
examining the port configuration in the PC BIOS.
Host PC preparation
If running Windows 9.x, reboot and press F8 and
then select "Command prompt only". The PC will
boot into DOS.
1. Create a temporary directory on the host PC.
2. Copy the following software update files to the
temporary directory: update.exe, ocx_load.h86,
ocx.h86. You can copy them from the supplied
Software Update diskette or from files
downloaded from www.logicube.com.
Once the above has been accomplished, perform
the following:
1. Attach the parallel cable between the host PC
and Logicube Omniclone Xi™.
2. Change to the new temporary directory and run
"update.exe" (or "update bidi" if Bi Directional
mode is used) and then follow the instructions
below.
