The first stage of the installation of the Micro CADAM free demonstration
software can be broken down into 6 steps as follow:
1. DOWNLOAD THE FILES FROM THE BBS TO YOUR COMPUTER AND COPY THEM ALL INTO
THE SAME DIRECTORY ON YOUR HARD DISK:
There are five (5) files to download:
a. MCADAM.ZIP which contains
i. Install2.txt (this file)
ii. Overview.txt (gives an overview of Micro CADAM)
iii. Readme.txt (information about Micro CADAM)
iv. Disk1.bat (Unzips MCADAM1.ZIP to floppy disk 1 of 4)
v. Disk2.bat (Unzips MCADAM2.ZIP to floppy disk 2 of 4).
vi. Disk3.bat (Unzips MCADAM3.ZIP to floppy disk 3 of 4).
vii. Disk4.bat (Unzips MCADAM4.ZIP to floppy disk 4 of 4).
b. MCADAM1.ZIP which contains
i. MCD.ZIP file which is copied to disk 1 of 4.
ii. READ.ME file which contains additional information.
iii. PKUNZIP.EXE which is the registered version. Please use this
version to unzip your files.
iv. INSTALL.BAT which is the batch file used to install the Micro
CADAM program FROM the floppy disks TO your hard disk.
v. INSTALL.TXT which is a text file with instructions on how to
install (and also configure and setup) the Micro CADAM program
FROM the floppy disk TO the hard disk.
c. MCADAM2.ZIP which contains the MCD.ZIP file which is copied to disk
2 of 4.
d. MCADAM3.ZIP which contains the MCD.ZIP file which is copied to disk
3 of 4.
e. MCADAM4.ZIP which contains the MCD.ZIP file which is copied to disk
4 of 4.
2. UNZIP THE MCADAM.ZIP FILE INTO ITS INDIVIDUAL FILES IN THE HARD DISK
DIRECTORY:
Use your own copy of pkunzip.exe to unzip the MCADAM.ZIP files into
their present directory. When you are prompted to overwrite the
existing pkunzip.exe file, say yes. The registered version of
pkunzip.exe (included in the MCADAM.ZIP file) will now replace your
unregistered version of pkunzip.exe.
3. UNZIP THE MCADAM1.ZIP FILE FROM THE HARD DISK, TO A FLOPPY DISK:
a. Place an empty, formatted high density disk into your floppy drive
(either a 1.2MB 5-1/4" or 1.44 3-1/2" disk)
b. To unzip the MCADAM1.ZIP file from the hard disk to the MCD.ZIP
file (and some other files) on the floppy disk, type 'DISK1
<DRIVE:>', where <DRIVE:> is your floppy disk drive. For example,
if your floppy disk drive is A, then type 'DISK1 A:' (no quotes!)
c. After the files have been copied, label this disk as "MICRO CADAM
INSTALL DISK 1 OF 4".
d. You may now erase the MCADAM1.ZIP file from the hard disk.
4. UNZIP THE MCADAM2.ZIP FILE FROM THE HARD DISK, TO A FLOPPY DISK:
a. Place another empty, formatted high density disk into your floppy
drive.
b. To unzip the MCADAM2.ZIP file from the hard disk to the MCD.ZIP
file on the floppy disk, type 'DISK2 <DRIVE:>', where <DRIVE:> is
your floppy disk drive. For example, if your floppy disk drive is
A, then type 'DISK2 A:' (no quotes!)
c. After the files have been copied, label this disk as "MICRO CADAM
INSTALL DISK 2 OF 4".
d. You may now erase the MCADAM2.ZIP file from the hard disk.
5. UNZIP THE MCADAM3.ZIP FILE FROM THE HARD DISK, TO A FLOPPY DISK:
a. Place another empty, formatted high density disk into your floppy
drive.
b. To unzip the MCADAM3.ZIP file from the hard disk to the MCD.ZIP
file on the floppy disk, type 'DISK3 <DRIVE:>', where <DRIVE:> is
your floppy disk drive. For example, if your floppy disk drive is
A, then type 'DISK3 A:' (no quotes!)
c. After the files have been copied, label this disk as "MICRO CADAM
INSTALL DISK 3 OF 4".
d. You may now erase the MCADAM3.ZIP file from the hard disk.
6. UNZIP THE MCADAM4.ZIP FILE FROM THE HARD DISK, TO A FLOPPY DISK:
a. Place another empty, formatted high density disk into your floppy
drive.
b. To unzip the MCADAM4.ZIP file from the hard disk to the MCD.ZIP
file on the floppy disk, type 'DISK4 <DRIVE:>', where <DRIVE:> is
your floppy disk drive. For example, if your floppy disk drive is
A, then type 'DISK4 A:' (no quotes!)
c. After the files have been copied, label this disk as "MICRO CADAM
INSTALL DISK 4 OF 4".
d. You may now erase the MCADAM4.ZIP file from the hard disk.
The second stage of the installation of Micro CADAM involves installing the
program FROM the floppy disks, BACK ONTO the hard disk. Read the file
INSTALL.TXT on Disk 1 of 4 and follow the instructions there.
NOTE: Before installing the software FROM the floppy disks TO the hard disk,
it is best to remove the volume label from all 4 of the floppy disks.
Should the disks have an incorrect volume label, the pkunzip utility may not
recognize the disks in the correct order, and will then keep prompting you
for a disk when it is already inserted in the drive. Remember to insert the
disks in the proper order. When asked to insert the disk with the batch
file, this means disk 1. When asked to insert the last disk of the backup
set, this means disk 4.
After you have installed the Micro CADAM software FROM your floppy disk TO
your hard disk, all of the Micro CADAM files will be found in the \MCADAM
directory. Look in the \MCADAM\DOCS directory for more information on
concepts, quickstart, etc. Some of these files are in Wordperfect 5.1 format
(complete with graphics) so you can print them out. One of the files is text
only. Should you want to purchase the "USING MICRO CADAM" book (1224 pages)
please contact JDC DISTRIBUTING at 818-542-6500. (Cost is US $44.95 + $7.00
shipping and handling)
