ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6. Extended Help for EMT4PM ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
EMT4PM or "EMT for PM" stands for Electronic Master Transfer for Presentation
Manager.
The EMT4PM program is a productivity tool which enable you to pack or unpack
diskettes using DiskImage,LOADDSK, EMTCOPY or MIF files.
LOADDSKF file can be built for DOS, OS/2 and AIX diskettes. This is an
advantage over Jack Gersbach SAVEDSKF program which only packs DOS or OS/2
diskettes.
Help is available any time you press the F1 key from anywhere within the
program. Because this is context sensitive help, the help information that is
displayed depends on where in the program F1 was selected.
For instance, you receive help for the Options pull-down on the action bar when
you highlight Options and press F1. However, this is not the same help that is
displayed when you press F1 while the Format diskette choice in the Options
pull-down is highlighted.
Press Esc at any time to view the previous help window or to return to the main
EMT4PM window if there are no other help windows.
EMTFORPM is the 32 bit version. It runs under OS/2 Version 2. Some functions
like compare, checksum, and compress are faster with this version than with the
16 bit version. The file dialog is the OS/2 Version 2 model.
This program does not handle alternate logical diskettes (as B: for the A:
drive when only one diskette drive is installed). Be sure the active diskette
address for the diskette drive is the primary address (A: for A: drive for
example). Do not switch to the alternate address (B: for the A: drive when only
one diskette drive is installed) from another window when using the primary
address with this program.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 11. Help for diskette built ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use this function to build a diskette from a packed file. The packed file
should have a supported format.
Be sure to put a diskette of the correct type in the output drive before
starting the operation.
The input file must be a DISKIMAGE file, VMDISK , an EMTCOPY file ,a MIF file,
or a LOADDSK SAVEDSK file format.
When building a diskette from a SAVEDSK/LOADDSK file, set the FORMAT option to
ON if the output diskette is unformatted or if the output diskette format does
not match the input file format.
Copy protected diskette are not supported by EMT4PM.
If you have problem when building diskette from remote drive, copy the source
file to a local drive before using it.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 19. EMT4PM by Daniel VALOT ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
How to ...
When building diskette images, you have to choose the image format.
EMTxxx is the preferred format used by EPL because it supports different
diskette formats and includes label data. Its compression algorithm is only
efficient on repetitive data.
The DOS program to unpack such file is EMTCOPY by Carsten Groennemann who
created this format.
MIFxxx is the corporate standard for exchaging files between plants. It
features support for any kind of data. It is best to format the diskette before
writing the master diskette when using only part of the diskette. Then, when
creating the diskette image EMT4OS2 or EMT4PM only stores used sectors.
DISKIMAGE is just a file with every diskette sectors stored in the same file
without any added data, label, comments ot check-sum. Is is good for fast
operations.
VMDISK is just a DISKIMAGE with a small header. You can unpack VMDISK to
diskette using this program. VMDISK are diskette images built by the OS/2 V2.x
VMDISK.EXE program to be able to boot from DOS diskette image.
LOADDSK is a DISKIMAGE file without unused sectors, any data is compressed and
a label can be added, a check-sum is added to the file for comparison when
building the diskette. This is generally the best format for Diskette image.
When building image from diskette filled with compressed files, set the
"UNCOMPRESSED LOADDSK" option to bypass compression.
In an attempt to detect a non-standard diskette format, or to detect the format
of a defective diskette, the diskette may be set to an unknown state.
Generally, trying to format a diskette under OS/2 in the diskette drive is
sufficient to restore the diskette drive to a standard status. In rare
situation you will need to shutdown and restart your workstation.
When building a diskette from an image or EMT4PM selects the correct format,
and generally format the diskette if it is needed. If a check-sum is included
in the file a comparison is made when building the diskette.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 20. Help for Format diskette ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Unless you are using diskette formatted with an incorrect format, this option
should not be set. EMT4PM automatically formats the diskette if needed.
EMT4PM will always verify the diskette. When the diskette is formatted before
writing, the verification takes place between the format and write operation.
When the diskette is already formatted, the verification takes place after the
write operation.
If EMT4PM detects data check errors, please discard the diskette as it is
probably not reliable. A diskette which shows intermittent errors is a BAD
diskette.
Sometimes, after problems during the format operation, EMT4PM do not succeed to
reset the diskette drive to its normal state . You may try to use the OS/2
FORMAT program with this drive to reset it, or the CHKDSK program. If none of
the above succeed, you will have to restart your system to recover the drive.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 21. Help for HDR=APAR ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This function is used to produce EMT or MIF file for APAR as opposed to PTF
files. More information is asked to produce the file.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 22. Label file information ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Label file format
They are either label files got from EMT4PM or EMTCOPY
(9 * 36 characters strings - file length = 333)
or plain text file :
(9 lines having up to 36 characters)
To print label use or not the PagePrinter option
Without this option the page length is set to one line.
You may want to change your SPOOLER printer setup according to the label
length, and suppress or not any form feed.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 23. Help for Maximize window ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
With this option, the program starts maximized. Options are stored in the
OS2.INI file and the restore pull-down option erases EMT4PM options from
OS2.INI.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 24. Help for Iconize window ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This option minimizes the window during diskette or file built.
The window is restored when the operation ends.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 25. Help for Save window position ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This option saves window position in OS2.INI. At the start of the program, the
window is restored at the saved position.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 26. Help for retore default values ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This option restores EMT4PM default values and erases saved values from
OS2.INI.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 27. Help for building a DISKIMAGE file ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This function allows you to build a DISKIMAGE file.
Do not forget to put the source diskette in the source drive before starting
the operation.
The output file may be used by DISKIMGE, OS2IMAGE, EMT4OS2, EMT4PM or DSKIMAGE
to build a diskette later.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 28. Help for building an EMTCOPY file ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This function allows you to build an EMTCOPY file.
Do not forget to put the source diskette in the source drive before starting
the operation.
The output file may be used by EMT4OS2, EMT4PM, EPLCOPY or EMTCOPY to build a
diskette later.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 29. Help for building a MIF file ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This function allows you to build a MIF file.
Do not forget to put the source diskette in the source drive before starting
the operation.
The output file may be used by EMT4OS2, EMT4PM ,EPLCOPY or EMTCOPY to build a
diskette later.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 30. Help for building a Simple MIF file ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This function allows you to build a SIMPLE MIF file (UNCOMPRESSED MIF file).
Do not forget to put the source diskette in the source drive before starting
the operation.
The output file may be used by EMT4OS2, EMT4PM ,EPLCOPY or EMTCOPY to build a
diskette later.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 30.1. XDF format. ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The XDF format is introduced by IBM to pack OS/2 diskette. This format is
supported by OS/2 directly during installation. Then the system is enabled to
read OS/2 XDF diskettes.
Some version of EMTFORPM call XDFCOPY directly. Any problem related to XDF
format should be directed to OS/2 support.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 31. Help for Page printer option ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
If your printer prints labels with a line per page, set this option on.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 32. What is the CRC code ? ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
What is the CRC code/value ?
---For the EPL/EMT format, this is the sum of all vital data in the packed
file, excluding the comments and label data. This includes all diskette data
before compression. This CRC is not affected by the compression.
This is not the CRC code given by the CRC program. This code is included in the
file and displyed when testing the file or building the diskette.
---For the MIF format, this is also a word checsum of data stored in the *DATA*
portion of the MIF file. This exclude the label data and any description record
included in the file. This Checksum depends on the compression algorithm used.
It is often different from the value given by the DOS EMTCOPY program. Both DOS
and OS/2 programs give the same diskette and display the expected/actual
CHECKSUMs. This code is included in the file for comparison when building the
diskette.
---For the DiskImage format, the CRC value is the same value calculated by the
CRC program with the default parameters. This CRC value is NOT included in the
file and may be included in the Package file.
---For LOADDSK file this is the double-word sum of packed sectors before
compression. Only used sectors are packed on DOS-OS/2 diskettes. Every sector
is packed on non-DOS-OS/2 diskettes. This code is included in the file.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 33. Building several diskettes ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Building several diskettes
You can build more than one diskette at a time:
o Select Build
o Select Diskette
o Select Diskette A for example
o In the select dialog file list, select all needed source file.
o Press OK when ready to write the first diskette
o When operation completes for one diskette, a dialog box asks you to replace
the destination diskette.
This feature can be used to compare diskettes and files.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 34. Compare diskette and source file ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
To compare a diskette and a file, the file must be the image of the diskette.
For example, if you compare an image file from a 9 sectors per track diskette
and a 18 sectors per track diskette, you may end up with undetermined errors.
The comparison stops on the first error (showing the track number where the
error occured for DISKIMGE, EMT or MIF files).
You can compare LOADDSK files to diskette.
You can compare several diskettes in one operation by selecting several files
in the file selection list box.
After each diskette you are prompted for diskette replacement.
Do not unterchange diskette, or you will get an error on track zero.
At the end of each comparison the CRC value is displayed if available.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 35. Help for diskette to file comparison ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This function compares any EMT, MIF, LOADDSK or DiskImage file and the source
or target diskette.
The source file must be the diskette image or undetermined errors may occur.
Multiple source file can be selected.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 36. Help for 96 TPI 5.25" diskettes. ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This option must be set if you build file from 80 Tracks low density 5.25"
diskettes (720KB diskettes). If you do not set this option, the file will look
like a 3.5" 720KB diskette. This options is only valid when building EMTCOPY
files.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 37. Default Font selection. ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Select the font used by the program to display its messages.
The selected font name will be saved in OS2.INI for future invocations of
EMT4PM
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 38. Help for building a LOADDSK file ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This function allows you to build a LOADDSK file.
Do not forget to put the source diskette in the source drive before starting
the operation.
This version of the program can pack non DOS or OS/2 diskette images. This is
an advantage over Jack Gersbach SAVEDSK which only handle DOS or OS/2
diskettes.
This version add a label support to LOADDSK format. This add-on is compatible
with LOADDKS.
The output file may be used by EMT4PM, EMT4OS2, EMT4WPS or LOADDSKF to build a
diskette later.
For DOS or OS/2 diskettes, only used sectors are saved and eventually
compressed. The checksum displayed is the sum of every words in the saved
sectors before compression.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 39. Credit ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Time to write the program: My family.
Compression algorithm: Ziv, Lempel, Victor S. Miller, Mark N. Wegman, Richard
Redpath, Robert Cahn and Deborah Kruesi.
EMT file format: Carsten Groennemann
MIF file format: IBM corporate standard.
LOADDSK file format: Jack Gersbach.
CRC code for DISKIMAGE: Donald R. Blake.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 40. Uncompressed ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Software distribution diskettes are already compressed. Do not compress them,
you would get larger files. For LOADDSK files, set this option to bypass
compression (when building files). Other formats are not affected by
compression problems. The Checksum is not affected by compression. This is the
DATA checksum before compression (for "loaddsk" format).
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 41. Help for Print label from packed file ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
When building diskette you may want to print the diskette label from the packed
file.
Only EMT, LOADDSK or MIF file can include label data. A lot of them have no
label data included or the label data format do not match the limited set
supported by EMT4PM
EMT4PM supports 9 * 36 characters lines for EMT files and 9 * 72 characters for
MIF or LOADDSK files.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 42. Help for Print label from label file ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Label file are plain text file having 9 lines of 36 characters
This format was created with the EPL/EMT format and does not support every
