Installing the Software

Publication 2706-6.2

Use the following procedure to install the basic Offline Programming
Software files on an IBM PC. Note that prompts appearing here
represent a typical PC. The prompts you see on your computer may
vary slightly from those shown here.

Note: Do not automatically install all of the program disks. First
determine the type of installation you require and install just the
programs required.

1. If running in a Windows environment, restart your computer in

DOS mode. Windows NT users need to restart their computers
with a Windows 95 or less operating system.

2. Start your computer and log on to the hard disk (normally you

will see the DOS prompt C:>).

Note: Depending on your installation, your DOS prompt may be
different.

3. Insert the DL40 Offline Programmer disk into the micro drive.

Most often this will be the A: drive.

4. At the DOS prompt (C:>), type:

A:INSTALL

5. Follow the onscreen installation prompts until installation is

complete and the C:> prompt reappears. Note: If the Offline
Programming Software program is already on disk, you will be
able to overwrite the program during installation.

6. The installation procedure automatically creates a default

sub–directory which contains the Offline Programming Software
program. By default that directory is DL40. Change to that
directory by typing:

CD\DL40
