In Windows 95 or Windows 3.x, use the INTERCHANGE Device
Configuration Utility to configure communication drivers that your
computer requires to transfer applications using Pass-Through. This
utility lets you:

View active communication drivers

Select and configure a communication driver

Edit a communication driver

Remove a communication driver

Access advanced driver parameters

The utility automatically updates the CFG_KT.INI, ABICRUN.BAT,
ABICSTOP.BAT, and the SYSTEM.INI files when drivers are
added, configured and removed.

To transfer applications using a Pass-Through connection, you must
first configure the appropriate driver.

To transfer applications using a serial connection (Internal DF1
driver), memory card or DOS file (using the PanelView File Transfer
Utility for DH-485 terminals), INTERCHANGE software is not
required.

To access the INTERCHANGE Device Configuration Utility:

In Windows 95, click the Start button, click Programs, click
PanelBuilder, then click INTERCHANGE Device Config. Utility.

In Windows 3.x, double-click the INTERCHANGE Device
Config. Utility icon in the PanelBuilder Group.

Or choose the Workstation Setup command from the File menu of
the PanelBuilder software.

The utility also opens at the end of the PanelBuilder installation.

The INTERCHANGE Device Configuration dialog shown on the
next page opens.
