Install the device driver software provided with your network card.

Run any diagnostic software provided by the manufacturer of the network card to
ensure that the card is working properly.

Installing the GEnet System Manager (GSM) Software

To become fully operational, your GEnet LAN Interface hardware requires correspond-
ing GEnet LAN Interface Software. This software is provided on floppy diskettes.

For PLC LAN Interfaces, each diskette contains the GSM software as well as the Commu-
nications Software and Configuration Editor for your LAN Interface. Select the size of dis-
kette you wish to use.

For CNC LAN Interfaces, each diskette contains the GSM software as well as the Com-
munications Software and Configuration Editor for one Station Type/Load Type (e.g.,
Series 15MA, Series 15TT, Series 16MA, etc.). Select the diskette that is compatible with
your Station Type/Load Type.

Caution

Preserve the original software diskette as a master. Set the diskette
write protection to avoid damage to the diskette, copy the diskette, and
retain the original as master software. Only working copies should be
used for running the software.

During the installation of the GSM and LAN Interface software, sample DOS system files will
be created in the C:\GSM directory. When the software installation is complete, you will need
to modify your DOS system files based on the sample files. Refer to the sections on setting-up
the DOS system files after you have completed the GSM software installation.

Perform the steps described below to install the GSM software onto your hard disk.

Power-up the PC into DOS.

Go to the root directory (\) of the drive on which you want to install the GSM. We
recommend that you install the GSM on C: because the sample DOS System Files for
your PC Interface card are created using C: (see Appendix D).
