To convert your installation of PC MACLAN in demo mode to the full featured version, enter a valid serial number in the Serial Number edit field.  You will need to restart your system after entering the serial number.

On this page you will find items of interest pertaining to the installation and use of PC MACLAN for Windows 95/98.

The “Program Directory” is the location to which the PC MACLAN executables and associated files were installed.  If it is necessary to change this location, you must first uninstall then reinstall the software.  Be careful to backup the file server system files to a separate location before uninstalling.

“User Information” is made up of the name of the individual who installed PC MACLAN (“User”) and the name of the system’s Registered Organization (“Company”) unless altered during installation.  If you have installed PC MACLAN in "Demo mode," these will be blank.  Your name and organization may be entered at the same time a valid serial number is entered.

“System Information” contains items specific to the functioning of the Miramar Systems AppleTalk protocol.  The Serial Number is checked during system startup and is checked on the network as the protocol loads.  An incorrect, missing or duplicate serial number will cause the protocol to be disabled.  A serial number displayed as “Demo” will enable the limited use version of PC MACLAN ("Demo mode").

The Selected Adapter is the name of the network card to which the Miramar AppleTalk protocol is bound.  Only one network adapter can have access to the AppleTalk network.  Changing the binding of the AppleTalk protocol from one network adapter to another must be accomplished from  the Network Control Panel.

The Selected Zone, initially, is the default AppleTalk zone for the physical network connected to the selected adapter.  To have the system register on a different AppleTalk zone, select the desired zone from the pulldown list.

Unchecking the “Show Startup Screen” checkbox disables the Miramar Systems license graphic displayed during system startup.  This option is not available when in "Demo mode."
