A parallel port driver may be missing.
3.
If you are running Windows NT, the NT driver may not be
loaded.
Remedy:
Check to see that:
•
The Siemens-Key is connected to a parallel port.
•
The Siemens-Key is the first device attached to the computer.
•
That the parallel printer attached to one of the parallel printer
ports is turned on.
•
Add the port driver :
1.
Go to the DOS prompt of 505 SoftShop directory.
2.
Type RNBODRVS and press enter. This will create five
subdirectories and extract three files (Readme.txt,
Sentinel.ddp, and Setup.exe).
3.
Type SETUP and press enter. The setup program
automatically installs the proper drivers for your particular
operating system.
If there are no errors, the program immediately returns to
the command line prompt. If there are errors, a report
prints each error.
4.
Restart the computer to activate the driver.
