Quick Starts For MicroWIN 2000
This section will help get a MicroWIN 2000 system up and running quickly. However, it is no
substitute for reading the rest of the manual. People in charge of maintaining the system should
read the entire manual to get full use of MicroWIN 2000.
When working through this manual, it is best to have MicroWIN 2000 running to follow along
with. The manual presentation is given in an order such that moving linearly from section to
section will provide building blocks on what will come next.
Getting an Administrator Started
For this brief overview, let’s connect MicroWIN 2000 to one locally placed S1000 Dialer. This
will show how to:
• add a new dialer entry to the system
• tell MicroWIN 2000 what COM Port to use
• connect locally to this dialer and see its current status
• disconnect from this dialer
What is needed:
• An available computer COM Port (1, 2, 3, or 4). Make a note of this COM Port number.
• An S1000 that has version 3.0 firmware (See section Dialer Firmware, Page 6 for details).
• A standard RS232 Serial Cable (NOT Null Modem) connected from the Printer Port on the
S1000 to the computer’s free COM Port.
Add a New Dialer Entry
Now, run MicroWIN 2000. When it starts up, the Setup MicroWIN Entries form will be
displayed.
A Dialer Entry is an association from your computer to an S1000 Dialer. Each dialer will have
its own entry. Any number of entries can be in the system. Entries can easily be Viewed,
Added, and Deleted as the need arises.
Before anything else, let’s create a New Entry.
