2.2 Installation of new run time files
If you are using the Modsoft programming software version 2.4 or 2.5, it is
necessary to update the following runtime files in order for Modsoft to
recognize your module. Versions prior to 2.4 are not supported. Version 2.6
and newer already include these updates.
LMSFDT.SYS Zoom screens
GCNFTCOP.SYS I/O Map module definitions
QUANTUM.SYS Quantum help screens
This may be accomplished by first identifying the pathname where you have
installed your Modsoft programming software and the drive letter of the floppy
drive from which you intend to install. A typical pathname assuming installation
of the C: drive is as follows:
C:\MODSOFT
The new runtime files required to use all versions of this module are supplied
on the 3.5 inch MSDOS formatted floppy disk titled:
“ Quantum Runtime Files,” Spectrum Controls, Inc Part Number: 20500121-xx
To install these files, operate your PC in MSDOS mode, perform the following
command:
C:>\COPY A:*.SYS C:\MODSOFT\RUNTIME
+ Note: This assumes you are installing from drive A: and that you have previously installed Modsoft
in the directory C:\MODSOFT. If not, you must make the appropriate substitutions.
2.3 General information on data register usage and terminology:
A total of nine 3x level and nine 4x level registers are used by the 140 ACI
052 00sc. After you have completed the runtime file installation, you can go
to the I/O Map screen and choose the 140 ACI 052 00sc by selecting the
desired slot, pressing which will display the modules available
for configuration into that slot. For module specific help, press .
After selecting the module, you must set the first 3x and 4x level registers to
be used. This will then automatically capture nine consecutive 3x level and
nine 4x level registers for use by the module. The architecture for this 32-
channel module is as follows:
