FILES=20 allows 20 files to be accessed concurrently. This number must be at
LEAST 20 to allow the firmware update utility to operate properly.
5 Edit the AUTOEXEC.BAT file to add:
C:\HP64700\BIN (to the end of the PATH variable)
SET HPTABLES=C:\HP64700\TABLES (as a new line)
SET HPBIN=C:\HP64700\BIN (as a new line)
Part of an example AUTOEXEC.BAT file resembles:
ECHO OFF
SET HPTABLES=C:\HP64700\TABLES
PATH=C:\DOS;C:\HP64700\BIN
6 The default \HP64700\TABLES\64700TAB file contains entries to establish the
communications connection for COM1 and COM2.
EMUL_COM1 unknown COM1 OFF 9600 NONE ON 1 8
EMUL_COM2 unknown COM2 OFF 9600 NONE ON 1 8
You may want to edit the \HP64700\TABLES\64700TAB file to change the name
of the emulator beside the serial communications port you are using from
"unknown" to "m6833x". You don't have to change this field in order to update
the emulator firmware, but if you leave it as it is, your screen will say "unknown"
instead of "m6833x" when you run PROGFLASH to update your firmware.
If you are using the COM3 or COM4 ports to update your emulator firmware, you
will need to edit the \HP64700\TABLES\64700TAB file. Either add another line
or modify one of the existing lines. For example:
EMUL_COM3 m6833x
EMUL_COM4 unknown COM4 OFF 9600 NONE ON 1 8
Software is now installed on your PC and you are ready to update the emulator
firmware. Reboot the PC to enable the changes made to the CONFIG.SYS and
AUTOEXEC.BAT files. To reboot, press the <CTRL><ALT><DEL> keys
simultaneously.
