Station
Configuration File

The original station.ini file is renamed old_station.ini and is
replaced by a new station.ini in the

C:\WINNT directory. Any

changes made to the original file (old_station.ini) need to be made
to the new file (station.ini).

The old default.stn file in the C:\Honeywell\client\station directory
will be overwritten. Any changes made to the original file will need
to be made to the new file.

Station Menu

A new Station menu (menu.txt) is installed. This means any
configurations made to the original Station menu will be lost and
will need to be reconfigured for the new Station menu through
Station.
