4. NPST-GR Installation and Configuration

1) Preparing for installation

This section describes how to install the device driver ANSI.SYS. Install the software using the installation program.
The installation program is included in the NPST-GR system disk. The installation program cannot start if the device
driver ANSI.SYS provided with the MS-DOS system disk has been installed in the disk on which you want to install
NPST-GR. If ANSI.SYS has not been installed, install ANSI.SYS first and then install NPST-GR.
Procedure
1. If the ANSI.SYS file does not exist on the disk on which you want to install NPST-GR, copy the ANSI.SYS
file from the MS-DOS system disk to the hard disk. For example, to copy the ANSI.SYS file to the root
directory of the hard disk, insert the MS-DOS system disk into drive A and type the following after the DOS
prompt:
COPY A:\ANSI.SYS C:(Enter)
2. If the DEVICE command for ANSI.SYS is not included in the CONFIG.SYS file, modify the CONFIG.SYS
file. For example, to add the DEVICE command to the CONFIG.SYS file, type the following at the DOS
prompt (C:\):
COPY CONFIG.SYS+CON CONFIG.SYS(Enter)
DEVICE=ANSI.SYS(Enter)
Then, press Ctrl
The CONFIG.SYS file will now contain the new line.
Notes:
• After modifying the CONFIG.SYS file, reset the personal computer so that your changes take effect.
• Note that the directory in which the ANSI.SYS exists must match the pathname used for the DEVICE
command.
