5250 ADAPTER CARDS: HARDWARE INSTALLATION MANUAL

3. Software Installation

Before installing the Adapter, please install the included Windows Utility diskette. This diskette contains the 5250 Windows Configuration Utility, Enabler, Diagnostics, and Adapter Handler in a compressed format. Also included on this diskette are the CEM5250.386, CEM5250.VXD, and TwinaxOEM.sys device drivers, an installation utility, and a readme.txt file. Call Technical Support at 724-746-5500 if you need a DOS version of the Utility diskette.

To install the software:

From Windows 3.x or NT 3.51, select File in the Program Manager, then Run;

or

From Windows 95/98 or NT 4.0, select Start, then Run;

then type:

<drive>:setup

where <drive> is the letter of the floppy drive containing the Utility diskette.

For DOS systems, from DOS, make your floppy drive the default drive, and at the DOS prompt type:

install<ENTER>

The installation utility will prompt for a directory on your hard disk in which to place the software. If you do not enter a directory, the default value of C:\5250CARD will be used. The directory will be created if necessary, and the software will be copied from the floppy and uncompressed.

When done, the installation utility will provide directions for updating your AUTOEXEC.BAT files. The AUTOEXEC.BAT file can be updated either automatically when installing these files or manually. Your system must be rebooted for the changes to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file to take effect.

The README.TXT file contains updates to this manual and troubleshooting information.
