CAUTION
Before inserting a PCMCIA card into the drive, touch
the case of the PC or some other ground to
discharge any static body charge. This step
minimizes the chance of damaging the card by
discharging your body static charge through the
PCMCIA card connector.
1. Insert a formatted and prepared (as supplied by Omega
Engineering Incorporated) PCMCIA card into the drive.
Be sure that a card is inserted fully into the drive before
testing.
2. Use the conventional DOS command DIR X: where X
represents the drive letter assigned to the PCMCIA drive
to read the files on the card.
Three files should be listed on the card:
FORMAT.MEM
NET.MEM
DATA.MEM
HyperWare Software Configuration
After the PD-1 drive has been connected, the drivers installed, an installed
drive letter determined, and access to the drive has been tested through
DOS, HyperWare must be configured.
Launch the HyperWare program under Windows and select the
Options/Paths menu from the HyperComm Window Menu Bar.
1. In the PCMCIA Format Command Text Box specify the
drive and path where the CardTalk drivers are located
followed by the command TCFORMAT.
In most installations, this will be
C:\CARDTALK\TCFORMAT.EXE.
The command TCFORMAT is a special command
supplied with the CardTalk drivers that is used for
formatting PCMCIA cards in the PD-1 drive. The
resulting card format is DOS compatible.
2. In the PCMCIA drive Text Box, specify the drive letter
that is used to access the PCMCIA drive. (This letter was
determined and tested earlier in checking installation of
the drive with the DIR command.)
3. Select OK to save the changes and close the dialog.
4. Double-click on the PC drive graphic and HyperWare
will scan the PCMCIA card installed in the drive checking
for proper format and the presence of the three support
files.
