Installing the PanelView Serial Firmware Upgrade Utility

D–5

Publication 2711E-821 – January 1998

The Serial Firmware Upgrade Utility Version 3 (SFU) software is
provided on two disks. Before installing the software, make a backup
copy of the disks. Store the original disks in a safe place, and install
the PanelView Serial Firmware Upgrade Utility from the copies.

The software installation program creates a directory on your hard
drive for the PanelView Serial Firmware Upgrade Utility and copies
all necessary files to it. By default, the drive and directory is
C:\AB\PB1400e\SFU. You can change this default.

To install SFU:

1. Start Windows 95 or 3.x. If you’re already in Windows, close all

open Windows applications.

2. Insert the floppy disk in the drive.

3. If you are running on Windows 95, choose Run from the Start

button, or select setup.exe from Windows Explorer.

If you are running on Windows 3.x, choose Run from the File
menu. In the Run windows, type:

a:setup

or

b:setup

where a or b is the drive containing the PanelView Serial
Firmware Upgrade Utility disk, and press Enter.

4. A window appears, recommending you close all open Windows

applications. If you followed step 1, choose Next; otherwise close
all open Windows applications now. Then choose Next.

5. Choose the drive and directory in which the PanelView Serial

Firmware Upgrade Utility will be installed. By default, this is
C:\AB\PB1400e\SFU. To change the destination drive or
directory, type the new drive and/or directory in the Directory
field. Then choose Next.

6. Choose the program folder (program group) in which you want to

install the PanelView Serial Firmware Upgrade Utility’s icons,
which includes a Readme file icon, the Utility file icon, and an
Uninstall icon. By default, the icons are installed in the
PanelBuilder 1400e program folder. Then choose Next.
