4) NPST-GR Startup

To start NPST-GR, follow the procedure below.
Procedure
1. If the personal computer is OFF, turn it ON.
You will see the DOS prompt C:\.
2. Change to the NPST3 directory by typing the following at the DOS prompt:
CD NPST3(Enter)
3. Type the following to start the NPST-GR Software:
NPST(Enter)
NPST-GR will start.
Design a program according to your system.
What type of programmable controller do you use?
What relays and registers do you use for the program, etc?
Customize NPST-GR. Set the communication conditions for
communicating with peripheral devices. Select the type of
programmable controller for the program you created or system
registers you set. Specify the maximum number of comments you
will add to a program.
Note:
* Once you save data together with NPST-GR on a disk,
NPST-GR will start with that data.
Set system registers 0 to 418.
Create or edit a program according to your design.
There are various functions useful for creating or editing a program.
Overview the NPST functions provided by the software, and create
or edit the program.
With the program check, monitor, search, and test run functions, etc.,
you can debug the program you created or edited.
You can preset the register values.
