FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE USING AN EPSON FX PRINTER AND WISH
TO USE THE VTRACE PROGRAM TO GET HARDCOPY OF YOUR TIMMING DIAGRAMS I
HAVE PUT TOGETHER SOME BATCH FILES AND PUBLIC DOMAIN SOFTWARE.
YOU WILL NEED THE FOLLOWING FILES......
PRINTER SET 5 1-01-80 12:17a
FXASCII EXE 3072 1-01-80 12:40a
TRACE BAT 86 1-01-80 12:21a
VTRACE COM 19096 1-03-80 9:00a
YOU WILL NEED TO HAVE PALASM2 AND SIM PREVIOUSLY TO GENERATE THE
HISTORY OR TRACE FILES TO PLOT. 4CNT.HST IS PROVIDED AS A SAMPLE
FOR INITIAL DEMONSTRATIONS.
AFTER YOU HAVE TURNED ON YOUR PRINTER EXECUTE THE TRACE.BAT FILE
BY ENTERING "TRACE" AT THE DOS PROMPT. FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS ON
THE SCREEN AND IT WILL START THE VTRACE PROGRAM WHEN EVERYTHING IS
READY. WHEN IN THE VTRACE PROGRAM USE THE PRINTER OUTPUT MODE FOR
HARDCOPY AND ANSWER Y TO THE QUESTION ON USING AN IBM GRAPHICS
PRINTER.
THIS BATCH FILE WILL PLACE THE PRINTER IN THE 7/72 LINE FEED MODE
AND WILL ALSO LOAD THE EXTENDED ASCII CHARACTER SET OF THE IBM PC.
WHEN YOU HAVE FINISHED USING THE VTRACE PROGRAM YOU WILL NEED TO
RESET THE PRINTER BY SENDING IT A MASTER RESET OR BY TURNING IT
OFF AND THEN BACK ON.
THIS PROGRAM IS VERY SLOW BUT IT DOES A NICE JOB ON THE GRAPHICS
PORTION OF THE TIMMING DIAGRAMS. THIS IS PUBLIC DOMAIN SOFTWARE
SO FEEL FREE TO DISTRIBUTE IT AND USE IT AT WILL.
IF YOU HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THIS SETUP CALL:
