APPENDIX F. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
F.1 PC208E.EXE
Why does the mouse stop working in
monitor mode(s)?
The monitor mode screens do not support the
mouse.
What’s with these “INI” files?
PC208E uses an PC208E.INI file to remember
the Station or Script file you used last. PC208E
will reload the file automatically when PC208E
is restarted. PC208E looks for its INI file in the
following sequence:
•
Looks in the current directory
•
Looks in the directory where the
PC208E.EXE file is located
PC208E stops looking when it finds an INI file.
PC208E updates the INI file it found when you
exit PC208E. If PC208E did not find an INI file
it will creates one in the current directory.
When should I use GT.EXE or TELCOM.EXE
instead of PC208E.EXE?
Script and stations files as used by TELCOM
and GT are compatible with PC208E. GT and
TELCOM may support some older hardware
that PC208E does not.
GT.EXE retains compatibility with previous
versions supporting command line parameters;
PC208E.EXE does not support command line
parameters beyond specifying a station file. In
addition GT.EXE uses a simple menu which
laptop users (no mouse) may prefer.
TELCOM.EXE should be used when a script file
is started from a DOS batch file. For example,
to start a script file in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file
use TELCOM <script file>.
F.2 EDLOG.EXE
I closed a program file and there was
another file behind it?
With EDLOG it is possible for the user to open
multiple files at the same time. This allows one
program to be viewed while editing another or
for program instructions to be cut and pasted
between programs. Selecting FILE | OPEN,
FILE | NEW, or FILE | DOCUMENT A DLD
FILE does not close any files that are already
open. Select WINDOW | TILE to have EDLOG
arrange all open files so they can all be viewed
at once. Select WINDOW | NEXT to move the
focus to another open file.
How do I document a dld?
Select FILE | DOCUMENT A DLD FILE. Then
select the DLD file using the file selection
window.
Documenting a DLD file automatically creates a
new CSI file. You do not need to use the FILE |
NEW sequence. The CSI file is named
“Untitled” until it is saved.
How do I access the Input Location
number?
While the “cursor” is on an Input Location name
(i.e. LOC name field is highlighted), type Ctrl
and the left arrow cursor key to access the Input
Location number field. Usually this is not
necessary as EDLOG will automatically allocate
Input Locations. Press F5 when the cursor is
on an Input Location name brings up the Input
Location Editor.
How do I add comments to the end of an
instruction line?
The END key will move the cursor and place a
semicolon. Comments can then be added.
