Chapter 1:  Installation

Backing Up the Disk

The software supplied with the PCI-ICOM485/4 (/2) is provided on two 3.5-inch diskettes.  As with
any software package, you should make backup copies for everyday use and place your original
master diskettes in a safe location.

The easiest way to make a backup copy is to use the DOS DISKCOPY utility.

In a single-drive system, the command is diskcopy a: a: Enter

In a windowed environment (such as OS2, Windows 3.1, Windows95, or WindowsNT) select all of
the files on the diskette and drag them to a backup destination.

Hard Disk Installation

The files contained on the master diskette must be installed onto your hard disk prior to use.  To do
this, perform the following:

1. Place the master diskette into the A: drive (substitute B: as appropriate).
2. Change the active drive to A: by typing a:Enter
3. Type install Enter and follow the on-screen prompts.

The installation process will create several directories on your hard disk.  If you accept the instal-
lation defaults, the following structure will exist.

Contents of the PCI-ICM4S dISKETTE

Bold 

indicates directory name.

PCI-ICM4S

Root or base directory containing the SETUP.EXE setup program used to
help you configure jumpers and options on the card.  The directory also
contains PCIFind.EXE, a utility to locate resources used by installed PCI-
bus cards.

PSAMPLES

A subdirectory of PCI-ICM4S that contains Pascal samples.

CSAMPLES

A subdirectory of PCI-ICM4S that contains “C” samples.

BSAMPLES

A subdirectory of PCI-ICM4S that contains QuickBASIC samples.

Contents of  the Tools/Utilities Diskette

Bold

 indicates directory name

.

VBACCES

Sixteen-bit DLL drivers for use with VisualBASIC 3.0 and Windows 3.1
only.  These drivers provide four functions, similar to the ACCES 32 DLL.
However, this DLL is only compatible with 16-bit executables.  Migration
from 16-bit to 32-bit is simplified because of the similarity between
VBACCES and ACCES32.
