1.4 Installing the DLS-1 Software
NOTE:
The DLS-1 software is not compatible with Microsoft Windows unless used in
conjunction with the DSC DLS-2 software package. If you are using the Microsoft
Windows for Workgroups v3.11 to install DLS-1 software, 32-bit file access must be
disabled. Do not use a system (boot) disk to install DLS-1. If you have multiple
operating systems and experience problems, make sure that the SHELL command
is set properly. (See your DOS manual.)
The following are step-by-step instructions for installing the DLS-1 software. At any
time you can abort the installation procedure by pressing the [ESC] key. When
prompted, pressing [ENTER] will automatically select the default condition.
The DLS-1 software will require at least 14.6 megabytes of disk space to install. The
procedure is as follows:
1 Insert the diskette labelled “Install Disk” into the proper disk drive.
2 Type the letter of the drive the diskette is in, type a [:], and press [ENTER] (e.g. [A]
[:] [ENTER]).
3 To run the install program, type [DSCINST], then press [ENTER].
4 If you are re-installing this software, or replacing a previous version of the DLS-1
software, pay careful attention to the first question in the installation process. You
will be asked whether or not you want to delete the Work Files. If you say yes, all
of your work files will be deleted. If you are installing DLS-1 for the first time, this
question is irrelevant.
5 Enter the letter designator of the hard disk drive you want to install the DLS-1
software on (e.g. [C]).
6 Enter the name of the directory on the hard drive where you want to install the DLS-
1. This directory must be off of the root directory. If the directory does not already
exist, it will be created for you. Do not install DLS-1 into the same directory that the
installation files are located.
NOTE: Ensure that the directory the DLS-1 software is stored in is not “hidden”. If the
directory or any of the DLS-1 files are “hidden”, the DLS-1 software may not operate
properly. Refer to your operating sytem manual for more information.
NOTE: Do not install the DLS-1 software to the same directory that contains the
DSCINST.EXE, DISK1.EXE, DISK2.EXE AND DISK3.EXE files.
7 You will be asked to verify that the drive letter and directory name are correct. If you
select “No”, you can re-enter this information.
8 If DLS-1 software is already installed in this directory, you will be asked if you wish
to return the settings to the default settings. If “Yes” is selected, all Log On Access
Codes will be erased, the DLS screen colours, and all other configurations will be
restored to the default settings.
9 You will now be asked for four items of information concerning the output ports and
modem to be used on your computer:
• Enter the number of the COM port you want to use for the modem (1 to 4).
• Enter the number of the parallel printer port (LPT) you want to use for the printer
(1 to 3).
