Computer with 1 Floppy or Micro Disk Drive
This section shows how to run the DL20 Offline Programming Software on a
computer with only 1 floppy or micro disk drive. We recommend that you
create a separate disk for storing separate S Record files for each DL20
Dataliner you program.
Important: Storing files on the DL20 Offline Programmer disk restricts
the number of files you can create.
The prompts and responses you see below will be identical or similar to what
you see on your computer display.
