Actions on the Host Computer
1. Make sure the host computer is connected to the phone line
and number you pre-set in step 2 on page 4.
2. Run DriveRight VMS.
See software manual for instructions on how to run VMS.
3. Set the host computer to host mode.
In VMS, click the Setup menu, then Host Mode, and select Host
Mode On.
NOTE: Because the host computer has to be in host mode to receive the
downloads, it is a good idea to set up a schedule for download-
ing. For example, you can instruct drivers to download any-
time after business hours and then set the host computer to host
mode as the last task of the day.
Alternatively, you can dedicate one computer full-time as the
host and export data from it periodically to another computer for
analysis and reporting.
