c. Type in the names of the INTERCHANGE server files. Put each file
name on its own line followed by a hard return:
DTL_KT.EXE
DTL_DF1.EXE
CFG_KT.EXE
CFG_DF1.EXE
RNASTR.EXE
RNA.EXE
Do not close the file at this time.
5 If your
AUTOEXEC.BAT
is not open in your ASCII text editor, then
open it now. If you use the DOS text editor, type:
EDIT C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT
↵
Your
AUTOEXEC.BAT
file contents will appear in the editing window.
6 Locate the line in your
AUTOEXEC.BAT
file that begins with the word
PATH
. This is your system’s “Path Statement”, which tells DOS where to
look for executable files when no specific path is otherwise specified.
7 Move to the end of the Path line and insert the complete name for the
directory in which the INTERCHANGE server files were stored. In a
standard installation they are located in
C:\ABIC\BIN
. When you have
finished editing it, your Path Statement will look something like this:
PATH=C:\DOS;C:\APP1;C\APP2;C:\ABIC\BIN
Create CFG_KT.INI File
INTERCHANGE needs to know exactly what hardware you are using, and
how it is configured. It takes that information from a configuration file
(CFG_KT.INI
) you modify to match your own installation.
8 You can edit the file with any ASCII text editor. If you use the DOS text
editor, type:
EDIT C:\ABIC\BIN\CFG_KT.INI
↵
The
CFG.INI
file that installs with INTERCHANGE includes
configurations for numerous cards. Lines preceded by a semicolor (;)
have been commented out. To activate your interface card, edit and
uncomment the appropriate options by removing the semicoloen at the
beginning of the line.
If you are using a card other than the 1770-KF2 to to step 9 below. If you
are using the 1770-KF2 communications interface card skip step 9 below
and go directly to step 10.
