6. Appendix

A. Sample Programs (for MS-DOS)

This section covers the sample programs that are supplied on the
floppy disk included with this board.

COM-2(PC)F Diskette

CONTEC supplies a sample program diskette with each
COM-2(PC)F board. This diskette contains sample programs to
help you get started.

Use the DOS DIR command to see a list of files on the
COM-2(PC)F diskette.

A> dir

Backup Copy

Make a backup of the COM-2(PC)F diskette before use. This will
protect you if the original copy becomes damaged or destroyed.
Use the DOS DISKCOPY command.

A> diskcopy a: b:

Keep the original in a safe place and use the backup copy for the
following procedures.

Copy Files to Hard Disk

If a hard disk drive is available on your PC, then installing and
executing the sample programs from the hard disk drive will be
faster than using a floppy drive. To run sample programs from the
hard drive, create a subdirectory named COM2F on your C drive
and copy the files from A: to C: with the following commands.

A:> c:
C:> md com2f
C:> xcopy A:¥*.* c:¥com2f /s
