Save & Run Programs – 32
AUTOEXECUTING YOUR PROGRAM
Once you have saved your program and other files to SSD1 you
may boot from SSD1 and autoexecute your program.
1. Make sure jumper W3[3–4] is installed. (This is the default
setting.)
2. Establish a serial communications link between your PC and
the 4010.
3. Make sure the name of your application program is listed in
the AUTOEXEC.BAT file, e.g., DEMO.
4. Run SETUP and specify “Boot from: SSD1 using ROM–DOS”.
SETUP
5. Type:
RESET
The 4010 will reset and boot from SSD1. SSD1 now becomes
drive C.
OVERRIDING PROGRAM AUTOEXECUTION FROM
SSD1
If you want to make changes to your program and need to override
autoexecution of your program, you must reboot the 4010 from the
BIOS drive. There are two options available:
1. You can rerun SETUP to change the “Boot from” option to
“BIOS drive with ROM–DOS”. If you include the line
DEVICE=MEMDRIVE.SYS BIOS in your CONFIG.SYS file,
you can access the SETUP program on the 4010 BIOS drive.
2. You can remove jumper W3[3–4]. However, this may be
inconvenient and/or impossible if you are making program
changes from an off–site location.
