ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1. Setup Location ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
HyperACCESS Setup shows the default paths for the HyperACCESS program files and
data files, and the amount of space required and available on the target disk
drives. By default the two paths are the same, but you can set up HyperACCESS
so that program files and data files are in different locations. To change
either path, click its Change... push button. When you're satisfied with the
paths, select OK.
If you have a previous version of HyperACCESS for OS/2 installed in the same
directories, the setup program recognizes it and requests confirmation to
overwrite the program and/or data files. If you're upgrading from HyperACCESS
Lite for OS/2, or HyperACCESS/5 for DOS and OS/2, you should install this
version in a different directory.
If you're upgrading from a previous version of HyperACCESS for OS/2, we
recommend that you use the same directory to avoid confusion. Setup
automatically saves your previous defaults and phonebook entries.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2. Directory for Program Files ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
HyperACCESS Setup shows where HyperACCESS proposes to install its program
files. If this location is acceptable, click OK If this location is not
acceptable, enter the full path and name of the directory where HyperACCESS
program files are to be copied. Then select OK.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3. Directory for User Data Files ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
HyperACCESS Setup shows where HyperACCESS proposes to install your data files.
If this location is acceptable, select OK If this location is not acceptable,
enter the full path and name of the directory where HyperACCESS user data files
are to be copied. Then select OK.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4. Existing Files ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
HyperACCESS Setup has found existing files in the directory or directories you
specified for installation of HyperACCESS files. You have four choices:
Go Back
Select this choice to return to the Setup Location dialog. You can then
specify different locations for installation of the HyperACCESS files.
Program Files
Select this choice if you want only the program files installed at the
location you specified.
User Data Files
Select this choice if you want only the data files installed at the
location you specified.
All Files
Select this choice to confirm that you want HyperACCESS Setup to install
its files in the location where HyperACCESS files already exist.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5. CONFIG.SYS Additions ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
HyperACCESS Setup displays the additions it proposes to make to your CONFIG.SYS
file.
If you are satisfied with the additions, select Let Setup make additions to
CONFIG.SYS now. When Setup finishes copying files, you will see a message
telling you that the CONFIG.SYS changes have been made and your old CONFIG.SYS
saved as CONFIG.BAK.
If you want to make the additions yourself, select You make additions to
CONFIG.SYS later. Setup proceeds with the installation.
Even if HyperACCESS modifies your CONFIG.SYS, you don't need to reboot right
away unless you want to run HyperACCESS from a command line location other than
the HAOS2 directory. Starting HyperACCESS from the icon in its folder (or a
desktop shadow of the icon in the folder) doesn't require the CONFIG.SYS
changes.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6. User Information ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Information you enter in this dialog is needed for installation. It will also
be used to log you on to the Hilgraeve Customer Support BBS.
Use Tab to move from field to field.
Enter your name, the name of your company, your address, and the serial number
of the HyperACCESS program you are installing. You can find the serial number
on the registration card or HyperACCESS Disk 1. When ready, select Continue.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 7. Type of Connection ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Select the type of connection you will use most often with HyperACCESS: Direct
Cable, Modem or Modem Pool, or TCP/IP.
If you need to change this selection later on, you can easily do so from within
HyperACCESS. You do not need to reinstall the program to change the type of
connection.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 8. Modem ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Scroll the list to find the name of your modem. If it is in the list, select it
and then select OK.
If the name of your modem is not on the list, select Not Listed. A dialog will
be displayed where you can specify whether you want to pick a similar modem or
add the name of your modem to the list.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 9. Unlisted Modem ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
You selected Not Listed on the previous dialog because you were unable to find
the name of your modem in a list provided by HyperACCESS. Use this dialog to
specify whether you want to pick the name of a similar modem (one made by the
same manufacturer and with a similar baud rate, for example) or add your modem
to HyperAccess's list.
If you select Pick Similar Modem..., you will return to the Modem dialog that
you saw before.
If you select Add Modem to List..., the Name Modem dialog will be displayed.
Note: If you arrived at this dialog because the exact name of your modem
doesn't appear in the list, you are probably better off to choose Pick Similar
Modem. For example, if you have a BogusCom 14.4EX that isn't listed, you should
probably go back and pick an existing BogusCom 14.4HX entry. Select Add Modem
to List... if no similar modem name appears or if you don't believe an existing
entry is appropriate.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 10. Name Modem ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use this dialog to add the name of your modem to the HyperACCESS list. You can
use the official name or you can make up a name.
You must enter a name before selecting OK.
If you select Exit, you will end the Setup program.
Note: Modems defined using the Not Listed... button are stored in the file
USERMDM.TXT. You can change the name, setup strings, and settings for these
modems by editing that file directly. The beginning of the file lists
guidelines for the proper format of modem entries within the file.
This feature provides additional flexibility in managing user-defined modems
beyond what can be achieved directly through the HyperACCESS user interface.
For example, you can provide a USERMDM.TXT file to other HyperACCESS users so
they can use modems you have defined. The file also enables you to specify
additional settings beyond those available in the user interface, such as the
message your modem displays when it establishes a connection.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 11. Duplicate Modem Name ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The name you entered in the Name Modem dialog is the same as that of a modem
already in the HyperACCESS list. You have two choices:
Select Use Listed Modem to use the modem name already in the list.
Select Enter Different Name... to specify a name not in the list.
After you enter a unique modem name, the Modem Setup dialog will be
displayed where you can enter modem setup strings and settings, or accept
the defaults.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 12. Modem Setup ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The Modem Setup dialog initially displays default information that you can
change. The following information is shown:
Modem name
The name of your modem as you entered it in the Name Modem dialog. This
text is read-only in this dialog.
Modem Setup strings
The setup string initially shown (1st string) is for a Hayes-compatible
modem. There are fields for three more initialization strings.
Default baud rate
The default baud rate, shown in a drop-down list, is 2400 bits per
second.
Use hardware handshaking for flow control
This check box is not checked initially.
Although these settings will work with most modems, to operate sophisticated
modems at their potential, changes are almost always necessary. To help you
make appropriate changes, background information is included in this help
topic. The setup strings and settings you enter in this dialog become the
default values for your modem.
When you
