2–6 Installing ODS
Publication MCD-5.1 -August 1999
Using Windows NT
Important: This procedure assumes that drive A is a 3.5-inch
floppy-disk drive and that drive C is a hard-disk drive.
If the drive designations on your computer are different,
substitute the appropriate designations.
1. Turn on the computer and insert ODS disk 1 into drive A.
2. Click the Windows NT Start button and select Run. A similar
box appears:
If the correct path does not appear by default in the Open:
pulldown menu box, type the correct path (e.g., a:\install a: c:,
where a: is the source drive and c: is the destination drive).
3. Press [ENTER]
The computer begins to execute the installation utility. Refer to
steps 4 through 15 in the Using DOS section (beginning on
page 2–2) for further instructions on installing your ODS
software.
If you are using a DOS–based system, you can optimize ODS
performance, by modifying your CONFIG.SYS file.
Important: 8100 HS110 software does not require you to add the
line ‘DEVICE=DF1DRV.SYS’.
1. Modify the CONFIG.SYS file, if necessary, to include these lines:
BUFFERS=25
FILES=20
DEVICE=DF1DRV.SYS
The record DEVICE=DF1DRV.SYS enables the DF1
communication driver to transfer files between ODS and the
servo controller.
