INSTALLATION
Installing the router controller

The Z-Systems Router Controller
software is distrubuted on a single floppy
disk. If you have purchased the stand-
alone version of the Router Controller
there will be a file called Router Control-
ler on your floppy. If you have purchased
a multi-user version there will be a file
called Router Controller Server and a file
called Router Controller Client. Installa-
tion is simply accomplished by dragging
the appropriate application from the
floppy to your hard drive.
To install the stand-alone version:
1) Drag the file called Router Controller
1.1 from the floppy over to the desired
location on your hard drive.
To install the multi-user version:
1) Drag the file called Router Controller
1.1 (xx-User), (where xx represents the
number of users you have purchased) over
the the hard drive of the computer you
intend to use as the router’s server.
2) Drag the file called RouterController
1.1 (CLIENT) to the hard drive of each
computer you have designated as a
workstation.
