Robot Helper is a Mirosoft Windows 3.1 application designed to assist in the use of a Robot 1200c color scan converter. Robot Helper (RH) permits slow scan tv images to be stored on your hard disk and provides an easy to use disk storage manager, complete with thumbnail previews of all images. Images can be displayed in two on-screen full color preview windows before uploading them to the 1200c scan converter. A separate panel allows you to control the operation and mode of the 1200c directly from within RH. Robot Helper comunicates with the 1200c through a standard 8255 based interface. The interface port addresses are fully configurable from within the software. Robot Helper will also run in the background under Windows, permitting the simultaneous use of other Windows programs to provide paintbox and image processing functions. Images may be also stored on remote servers and accessed over a local area network (LAN). Clip-art images can also be loaded directly off CD ROMs.
