DLA For Windows 3.x
───────────────────
The DLA For Windows converts your PC into a full functioning
Hardware Logic Analyser. It was designed to provide a cheap and effect
way of analysing digital electronic circuits using the standard IBM PC.
It has a maximum internal sample rate of 6.00 MHz (external 10MHz),
8 input channels, fully programmable trigger on any combination of 4
input channels, voltage over protection on all inputs makes it suitable for
RS232 and other higher voltage environments. It is ideal for anyone
interested in digital electronics.
The shareware distribution of DLA includes the following:
o full featured DLA For Windows 3.X software
o online help containing user instructions
o schematic diagrams of the hardware in postscript file format.
The kit version of DLA includes the following:
o full featured DLA For Windows 3.X software
o online help containing user instructions
o schematic diagrams in paper format
o all printed circuit boards needed for the hardware
o some of the hard to get electronic components
o extra instructions on how to build the hardware
This package requires both a software and hardware component and
as such is only suitable for people with knowledge in electronics and
experience in the construction of electronic kits. The hardware component
is fully documented in the schematic diagrams provided. These files are
the postscript files for a HP Laserjet III printer. To print them you will
need a postscript printer and then from the command line just use the
PRINT command (ie PRINT DLA1.EPS).
As mentioned earlier this is an electronics project, requiring that
some hardware be built. You can build the hardware from the schematic
diagrams using wire wrap techniques or by producing your own PCB's.
Alternatively it is possible it is possible to purchase the PCB's ready made.
For full details on this and any other topic it is recommended that
you install the software and with the software running press F1 key to get
online help. A good place to start is 'About this Product'.
To install the software see the section below. Follow the instructions
carefully, else the software may not install correctly.

Installation Procedures
───────────────────────
There are several ways you can install the software. Each of the
doifferent methods is listed below. The recommended method is method number 1
but all 4 will work:
1) Hardisk Install
Unzip the DLAV12.ZIP into a temporary directory. Start windows and change
to the temporary directory using the File Manager. Then run the SETUP.EXE by
double clicking on the item within File Manager.
2) 720kByte, 1.2 or 1.44 MByte Floppy Install
To install the software requires a blank 720 kByte or 1.2 or 1.44
MByte floppy disk. First expand the contents of the ZIP file to a temporary
directory. Once expanded, change to the temporary directory and run the
MAKEDISK.BAT batch file. This file will copy the required install files
to the floppy disk. Then, from within Windows use the File Run menu option
to start the A:\SETUP.EXE program. This program will install the software,
create a windows program group and program item.
3) 1.44 or 1.2 MByte Floppy Install
You can expand the contents of DLAV12.ZIP directly to a 1.2 or 1.44 MByte
floppy disk. Once this is done just run the A:\SETUP.EXE from that floppy as
outlined above.
4) Last resort.
Expand all the files manually to the loction you want the software
to be installed. Then manually create the program icon and group and our done.
Include in the DLAV12.ZIP file are the following files:
