This section is intended to provide instructions on how to set up your PC to work with the Model 24SII DES with respect to the BayTech software (if you intend to use it) and special considerations to keep in mind when connecting your PC to the Model 24SII DES in parallel or in serial.
If you intend to use the RAMEXEC (text mode) or RAMTSR (graphics mode) hot key program to select between multiple peripherals, you should have both the RAMEXEC and SETUP or the RAMTSR and SETUPCFG files copied onto the hard drive of your PC.
NOTE: If you have a working copy of RAMEXEC (or RAMTSR) from a PC that has already configured RAMEXEC (or RAMTSR) for your application (i.e., added all the appropriate peripheral device selections), there is no need to copy the SETUP (or SETUPCFG) file to the new PC. SETUP (or SETUPCFG) is required only if you want to make changes to your current version of RAMEXEC (or RAMTSR).
You would typically add RAMEXEC (or RAMTSR) to your PC's AUTOEXEC.BAT file. The RAMEXEC (or RAMTSR) command should be located after the PATH command and before any DOS shell commands. If you copy the BayTech software onto a subdirectory, the subdirectory must be included in your PATH command.
When connecting your PC in serial to the Model 24SII DES, you would typically reroute the parallel output to the serial port via the DOS MODE command:
