1.3

Installing the SCSI card

Before you install the WinCue prompter software you need to install and configure the SCSI card in accordance

with the documentation supplied with it. Information on the issues involved with setting up SCSI cards and how to

get round problems can be found in Appendix A of this guide.

1.4

The I.M.T. Scroll Card

The I.M.T. scroll card allows WinCue to prompt text in any language. Data from the scroll card is sent to the

prompter screen via the on-board composite video channel. The I.M.T. card also features an on-board genlock

port. In addition, an I.M.T. scroll control can be attached to the I.M.T. card leaving all the ports on your PC free for

other peripherals.

1.5

Installing the I.M.T. Card

The I.M.T. card will have been configured prior to dispatch for the settings required in your country. Therefore

changes to jumpers or dipswitch settings should not be necessary.

Remove the cover from the PC’s case and find a free full length ISA slot. Remove the appropriate blanking plate

and carefully insert the I.M.T. card.

Connect the SCSI cable to the I.M.T. card and replace the PC’s cover.

Please refer to Appendix A for more details of the I.M.T. card.

1.6

Laptops

Insert the PCMCIA SCSI card in the designated slot in the laptop. Start the laptop and the card should be detected

when you boot up. Install the relevant drivers for the SCSI card.

Refer to Appendix A for help in setting up your PCMCIA SCSI card.
