INSTALLATION

ANASCAN User’s Guide 7

For easy removal of recorded data, you may install the DATALOG and
ALARMLOG directories on the A or B floppy drives. For automatic
reboot use the B drive recording data to the floppy.

Copy all the supplied files to the ANASCAN directory.

Installation Program

The installation program, SCANINST.EXE, customizes each
ANASCAN program for the application. When typing C:SCANINST
(if it’s on the hard disk), or B:SCANINST (if it’s on drive B), The
installation screen appears and enables you to select parameters used by
ANASCAN.

SCANINST.EXE stores the program setup parameters in a file called
INSTAL.DAT. When run, the SCANINST program reads the
INSTAL.DAT file from the default disk directory. If both files are on
the same disk directory, enter the directory and type SCANINST.

If the SCANINST.EXE and INSTAL.DAT file are on different
directories, enter the disk directory containing INSTAL.DAT and type
SCANINST preceded by the path to the disk directory containing
SCANINST. For example, if INSTAL.DAT is on drive A and
SCANINST.EXE on drive B, type :

B:>A: [Enter] to change the current default drive to A

A:>B:SCANINST [Enter] to start the installation program

If the installation program cannot find INSTAL.DAT, an error message
appears. Verify the location of INSTAL.DAT file.
