When you are finished setting up the ports, press the ESC key to
return to the previous windows. Press F10 to save the new configura-
tion or ESC to quit without saving. The setup program will then create
a new configuration data file GEN-DRV.CNF.
You must install the PCL-846/847 card driver (GEN-DRV.EXE)
before you run any application programs, including the DataScope
utilities. If you are installing the driver for the first time, you will need
to run the setup program (described in the previous section) to save
the initial status of the PCL-846/847.
Because the driver is a TSR (Terminate and Stay Resident) program,
you can execute it at any time – you do not have to install it in the
CONFIG.SYS file.
To install the PCL-846/847 card driver change to the directory or
floppy disk containing the driver files and type GEN-DRV. You
should soon see the following message:
PC-ComLIB Serial Communication Driver (Ver x.xx)
Setup driver...
Device driver setup O.K.
If the driver can not detect any card or the GEN.DRV configuration
file is not in the same directory as the driver, the following message
will be displayed:
PC-ComLIB Serial Communication Driver (Ver x.xx)
Setup driver...
found!!
None serial port
To remove the driver TSR program, just type GEN-DRV/q from the
DOS prompt. The following message will appear:
PC-ComLIB Serial Communication Driver (Ver x.xx)
Release driver...
Device driver release O.K.
