Installing the software
After ProLink software installation is completed, the ProLink Setup icon
enables switching of protocols used by the ProLink program. To change
the protocol used by:
• The ProLink program, see
Section 2.8
, page 22
• An RFT9739 transmitter, see the RFT9739 instruction manual
Communications Port dialog box
After the installation/setup program establishes the protocol that the
ProLink program will use, the Communications Port dialog box appears
as shown above. The dialog box prompts the user to choose COM1 or
COM2 as the communication port.
Select the desired option, then click OK, or, if the personal computer has
more than two serial ports, and a port other than COM1 or COM2 is
desired:
1. At the Communications Port dialog box, choose COM2.
2. After installation is completed, use the Windows Notepad program to
open and read the 3COM.TXT file (located in the INST subdirectory
of the ProLink directory). The 3COM.TXT file is an ASCII file that
explains how to modify the CONFIG.SYS file to designate COM3 or
COM4 as the communication port.
