Imported Hardware Window

The program gets the Hardware information from the .GCF and .MCF files.

Type

All modules are imported as CIBs.
Change as required if the old modules are AIBs or IOBs.
If you have IOBs, select IOB STD, since this was the only
IOB supported in the old program.

Banks

The DOS version of the program supported only 1 bank.
For AIB modules, if you upgrade the Astrotac comparator
to more than 8 receivers, change this field.

Location

There was no Location field in the old program. Add a
location description if desired.

Name

The module Name was part of the xxx.MCF file. You
probably won't see a name unless you have hand-edited that
file. Enter a name for this module if you desire.

Channel

The DOS program did not support an explicit Channel field.
Many people put Channel information in the Receiver
Description field in the DOS version.

-Open the Channel Window and add channels as
appropriate.
-Select the appropriate channel for each module.
