Setting Up QuickLog
Make sure that your QuickLog package is complete. In addition to this printed document, it should contain
a floppy disk, the Hardware Installation Manual, and the registration card.
Make sure that there is at least 2 MB of free space on the hard disk on which you intend to install
QuickLog.
Insert the QuickLog disk into the floppy disk drive.
Starting the Installation
For Computers Running Windows 3.x
1. From the File menu in Windows Program Manager, choose Run. The Run dialog box will appear.
2. In the command line, type the drive letter of the drive you are using, followed by a colon and the
QuickLog installation program file name, SETUP. (You may type upper or lowercase letters.) For
example: A:SETUP
3. Press the Enter key. The QuickLog installation program will start.
For Computers Running Windows 95/98
1. Open the Control Panel.
2. Select Add/Delete Programs.
3. Windows 95 will search for the installation disk. Select finish and the QuickLog installation program
will start.
You can exit the installation procedure any time by clicking the Cancel button. However, QuickLog will not
be completely and properly set up.
Setup Summary
You will be asked to specify the drive and the directory where QuickLog is to be installed. The default is
C:/QLFW. You may type a different path, but it must be a valid MS DOS path:
Drive:/ Directory/Directory
Then choose OK. The installation program will:
• Check if the specified directory exists, and create it if necessary.
• Check if there is enough free space on your hard disk. If not, you will be asked to enter another drive or
to cancel setup.
• Copy all QuickLog program files to the drive and directory.
• Create a QuickLog program group in the Windows Program Manager. If the group already exists, it
will be opened.
• Create various program items within that group.
• Add the command line DEVICE=DRIVE:/DIRECTORY/ DIRECTORY/.../STIDATAQ.386 to the
[386Enh]section of the SYSTEM. INI file to install the virtual device drive needed to communicate
with the hardware.
Completing Setup
Restart Windows so that the changes made to your system can take effect, so that the driver will be loaded.
