SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION
This chaptere contains an essential description of the control software for all the programmers. Please
remark that on line help is updated before the manual.
THE PROGRAMMER SOFTWARE
The programmer package contains a floppy disk(s) or CD with the control program, useful utilities
and additional information. We recommend making a copy of the original disk(s). The permission
to freely copy the content of the floppy is granted in order to demonstrate how programmers work.
Differences and modifications to this manual (if they exist) may be found in README_P.TXT file
on the included floppy.
INSTALLING OF PROGRAMMER SOFTWARE
Installing the programmer software is very easy:.
- Create a new folder on the Hard Drive of Your PC.
- Copy the files contained in the two diskettes to the new folder.
- Run “install.exe” (DOS version) or “setup.exe” (Windows version) by clicking twice on it.
- Follow the on screen instuctions to complete the installation.
- Please read the README_P.TXT file for latest information about the programmer hardware
and software.
- After completing the installation, You may delete the new folder and the files contained in it.
Programs PG4U.EXE (for DOS) and PG4UW.EXE (for Windows) are common control programs
for all programmers. We guarantee running of these programs under all of above mentioned
operating systems without any problems. Also background operation under Windows is error-free.
For DOS versions of the control program running under Windows 3.11/95/98, we suggest the
following: (adjust “Properties” on the icon on your screen):
- Run the control program in full-screen DOS (in text mode). In graphic mode the control program
might be somewhat slower.
- If you want the control program to run in the background, it is necessary to set: (WIN95/98)
RIGHT mouse button on the DOS icon/ PROPERTIES/ OTHERS/ BACKGROUND/ Enable;
(WIN3xx) in the appropriate PIF file, set the option to Background.
