4.A hardware types list box should appear. Find the “Multi-function Adapters” type on the list and click it. Click the “Next” button to continue.

5.A list box opens with Manufacturers on the left and the associated board Models on the right. Click the “Have Disk” button.

6.An Install From Disk dialog box should pop up. Insert the diskette with the Quatech INF files on it, select the correct drive letter, and click the “OK” button. Windows 95 automatically browses the root directory for an INF file that defines configurations for Multi-function Adapters. If no INF files are found, click the “Browse” or “Other Location” button, double-click the Win95 sub directory on the installation diskette, and choose “OK”. The edit box should now read “A:\WIN95”. If it does, choose “OK”. You are not required to select the file name. After finding the directory containing the INF files, Windows 95 will choose the correct file.

7.Your computer should read the INF file on the diskette and display a list of Quatech Multi-function Adapter models supported by Windows 95. Select the DS-200/300 Enhanced Serial Adapter Model Name from the list and click the Next button to continue.

8.A dialog box will appear with an unused I/O range and IRQ resources that Windows 95 has found available in the registry. Windows 95 has assigned these resources to the DS-200/300. Review these settings carefully before proceeding. You should either take notes of these resources being allocated to your new hardware, or have Windows 95 print a copy. You are required to manually configure the DS-200/300 to match these resources. Windows 95 will not automatically configure a DS-200/300 board, it will only assign an available I/O range and IRQ.

9.The “Add New Hardware” utility now asks for your Windows 95 installation disks. Serial communication ports require two drivers supplied by Microsoft to function: SERIAL.VXD and SERIALUI.DLL. Insert the disk or CD and click “OK”.

NOTE:

You may be able to skip step 9 if you are certain that your system has the latest version of these files installed. If you do not have your Windows 95 install disks immediately available, click “OK” anyway. A dialog box appears with an option to Skip the files. Click the Skip button and the files will not be installed. This is all right if the latest version of these drivers are currently in the SYSTEM directory.
