worked printer. For something as timing dependent as MIDI,
this can be disastrous. Using the SYSEDIT.EXE program (you
can find it in the SYSTEM subdirectory of the WINDOWS
directory) bring up the SYSTEM.INI file. In the [386 Enh] sec-
tion of the file, you will find a line that reads: "device=*vpd".
Insert a semi-colon (;) at the very beginning of the line, save the
file, and restart Windows. That's it, you're now "VPD" free.
About the "<Advanced>" Button
The Advanced Setup allows you to set the driver to match your
parallel port's hardware mode, and also to add delay for slower
printer ports.
and the delay is set to 0. Once a valid set of Port Address and IRQ
are set and Windows is reloaded, the PORTMAN driver will
allow you to calibrate the delay values automatically. You should
not attempt to directly change the delay setting without first veri-
fying the settings from the DOS diagnostic program, or going
through the Trouble-Shooting section later in this manual.
Once the proper settings are made in the Advanced Setup, you
may press the OK button to return to the main Setup dialog.
IMPORTANT: If you encounter problems using the PORT-
MAN 4x4/S with Windows, verify that Windows has loaded the
PORTMAN 4x4/S driver. In Windows 3.1, this can be done by
opening the *Control Panel* icon in the *Main* Group and
clicking on the *Drivers* icon. For further information on set-
ting up drivers under Windows, see the "Windows 3.1 and 3.11
Driver Installation" section.
