4.6 PADCI 6.EXE: LOADING & UNLOADING
Before you load PADC16.EXE, you must load VLEXE. Syntax for loading/unloading PADC16.EXE is
as follows:
NOTE:
Refer to Section
4.4
for syntax conventions.
p a t h
PADC16.exe
/aA
=
b
/F
=
cfgfile
/PK
=
p
/NAME
=
devname
/ H e l p
/ u
The elements of this model are explained as follows (note that if you do not use the switch options,
their default values remain in effect):
p a t h
DOS path to PADC16.EXE. Example: C:\ADC16\
/BA
=
b
Base Address: The Base Address setting for the board being loaded (refer to
base-address selection, in Chapter 2). The default Base Address is &H300
(768 decimal).
b is the Base Address value. Either hex (range
=
&H200-&H3FO) or decimal
values are acceptable; however, if they are given in hex they must be preceded
by an ampersand
(&)
and an H (for example,
& H 3 0 0 ) .
Make certain the Base
Address you enter has not been already assigned to another device.
/F
=
cfgfile
Default Override: allows you to change any or all of the default
parameters discussed in the configuration section (Section 2.2) of Chapter 2.
cfgfile
the name of a configuration file created with the ADC16CFG.EXE
utility discussed in Chapter
2.
The example file used for discussion in Chapter
2 is ADCZ6.CFG.
/PK
=
p
Pop Up Control Panel hot key switch: when the number of installed boards is
greater than one, each instrument should have its own Pop-up key assignment.
The default Pop Up Control Panel hot key is <
Alt >
c F5 >
.
p
is one, two, or three keys, as follows:
(1) One key: any choice of < A > through <
Z
> , < F1> through < F10 > ,
< 0 > through <
9
>
,
or
c
Tab > , < Esc >
,
or <
?
>
.
Note that in working
with a single key, the key you choose will be unusable for any other
function while CALL.EXE is loaded; you might therefore want to confine
your single-key choice to one of the function keys
(
< F1> through < F10 >
).
