If the “Bad Sectors” message does not reappear, format the
diskette once again to verify results. (This is a “best-two-
out-of-three formats” technique. Oftentimes, the diskette is
not “seated” properly in the disk drive when fi rst inserted,
and as such, the format process may fail.)

The diskette in drive B has now been formatted and
contains a copy of the DOS operating system. Remove
this diskette and lay it to one side in its protective
envelope. If you need to format another diskette, insert
another new, blank diskette into drive B and close
the door. The computer will now ask you if you wish
to format another diskette. Press

to format the

additional diskette.

If you do not wish to format any additional diskettes,
simply press

in response to this question. You will

then return to the DOS operating system.

COPYING DATA

Since the FCC/SCC II software is sent from WattMaster without
the DOS fi les, it will not “Boot Up” automatically until you have
copied the data fi les from the new FCC/SCC II disk to the newly
formatted disk which has the DOS system fi les.

The information from the FCC/SCC II disk (Source Disk) is copied
onto the newly formatted disk (Target Disk) using the following
procedure:

Insert the “Source Disk” into drive A (left drive) and
close the door. Insert a newly formatted diskette into
drive B and close the door. With the A> prompt showing
on the screen, type the following command:

A>

COPY *.* B:/V

The screen will now display the copy process:

A>COPY *.* B:

COMMAND.COM

AUTOEXEC.BAT

n File(s) copied

The diskette in drive B now contains the same data as
the disk in drive A. Remove this diskette and label it
using a SOFT FELT TIP PEN.

The newly made disk must be used as the FCC/SCC
II disk if you want the SCC/WCC II software to
automatically appear on the screen after you re-boot or
start the computer from a cold start. The original disk
should be kept in a safe place to be used as back-up in
case of an emergency.
