11. Programming (Windows) software 66-99-210
MAXICAL
®
III is 100% based on micro-processor technique,
which means that all integration functions can be programmed.
The software package, 66-99-210, has been developed with a view
to providing distributors and service technicians with simple, but
effective, access to programming and configuring MAXICAL
®
III.
11.1 Computer and Printer Requirements
The program can be installed and run on an IBM-compatible 486
or Pentium computer, with at least 8 MB RAM - although we
would recommend 16 MB RAM as the program runs somewhat
faster.
To install the program, there must be at least 10 MB free on the
hard disk and a 3½” (1.44 MB) floppy drive. The program can not
run directly from the disks. The computer must also have mouse
and a free serial COM port for programming, plus a free parallel
port for the lable printer.
Windows 3.1 or 3.11 must be installed on the computer. The
program can also be used with Windows 95.
The monitor must be min. VGA, as the program is always shown
in VGA format. If a monitor with a better resolution is connected,
the program will not fill the whole screen.
When programming MAXICAL
®
III, all that is required is a serial
data connection between MAXICAL
®
III and the computer. This
connection can be established via the optical read-out head, type
no. 66-99-102 - or by means of a data cable with built-in RS-232
adapter, type no. 66-99-106.
Regardless of the method you prefer, the program can be set up to
use either the COM1 or COM2 port in the computer.
