************************************
* MEDshare#1 1st TIME INSTALLATION *
************************************
1. Insure that you have at least 5 Mega bytes of free disk space
on your hard disk to hold the MEDshare#1 program and data files.
2. Insure that you have DOS 3.3 (or greater) installed on your
computer using the DOS 'VER' utility.
3. Check your hard disk for any faults using the DOS 'CHKDSK'
utility (see your DOS manual for more information). If any
faults are found they MUST be corrected before installing
MEDshare#1.
4. Check your 'CONFIG.SYS' file to insure that it has:
Single user DOS system....: FILES = 60 (minimum value)
BUFFERS = 9 (or greater)
Single user WINDOWS system: FILES = 150 (minimum value)
BUFFERS = 9 (or greater)
NET BIOS networking system: FILES = 150 (minimum value)
(per work station) BUFFERS = 9 (or GREATER)
NOVELL 2.x & 3.x system...: (read note below)
* Note - NOVELL places a limit of 40 file handles per station,
regardless of the station's local setting. This can be modified
by creating the following file and placing it in the same
directory as your CONFIG.SYS file for each work station.
File name: SHELL.CFG
Contents.: FILE HANDLES = nn (value 60 or greater)
CACHE BUFFERS = xx (optional entry)
5. If you had to make any changes to your CONFIG.SYS file you
must REBOOT your computer. The values placed into the CONFIG.SYS
file are only read by your computer at BOOT time.
*** You are now ready to load your distribution disk's and setup
your MEDshare#1 data files. ***
**********************************************
* MEDshare#1 1st TIME & UPGRADE INSTALLATION *
**********************************************
1) If 'UPDATING' your MEDshare#1 system - make a backup of your
current MEDshare#1 installation - program and data files. This
should be to either floppy disks or tape.
2) Make a backup of the distribution disks you received your new
release/update on.
3) To insure that you do not have any faults on your hard disk it
is advisable to run the DOS 'CHKDSK' program (without any fix
parameters). If you receive any error messages they must be
properly cleared before you can continue - CALL FOR YOUR LOCAL
HARDWARE SUPPORT - DO NOT USE YOUR COMPUTER UNTIL ALL DISK FAULTS
HAVE BEEN CORRECTED. (For normal day to day usage of your
system it is advisable to insert this 'CHKDSK' program request
into your 'AUTOEXEC.BAT' file so that a basic integrity test is
performed on your computer each time you turn it on.)
4) If there were no problems encountered by 'CHKDSK' then you
are ready to install the MEDshare#1 distribution files onto your
hard disk.
5) Place distribution disk #1 into either disk drive 'A' or 'B'.
6) From your DOS prompt enter the following:
for disk drive 'A': A:INSTALL <enter>
for disk drive 'B': B:INSTALL <enter>
This INSTALL routine will step you through the process needed to
load all of the MEDshare#1 distribution files onto your hard
disk. You will be prompted to enter information necessary to
properly install your MEDshare#1 distribution files, create the
sub-directory these files are to reside in, and make any
necessary to your CONFIG.SYS file. Upon completion of this
INSTALL process you will be ready to CREATE/UPDATE your
MEDshare#1 data files. To create your data files you must run the
program U107T108. This program will create/update all of your
data files for the MEDshare#1 main program. Run the COLLECT
program to create its data files .
* Note - If this is the first time you have installed MEDshare#1
on to your computer you should print a copy of the MEDshare#1
'USER MANUAL'. This manual is over 160 pages long and contains
instructions on how to load and use MEDshare#1. This 'USER
MANUAL' is in eight parts and can be printed by entering the
following command:
MANUAL <enter>
7) You can now load the MEDshare#1 program by entering: MED1
<enter>. If your MEDshare#1 data files need to be created or
updated you will be requested to run the U107T108.EXE program.
If your current data files do not need to be updated your new
MEDshare#1 system should be ready for use.
**** NEW RELEASE/UPDATE COMPLETED *****
* YOU ARE NOW READY TO USE MEDshare#1 *
Before you attempt to setup any patients you will need to build
at least one 'CHARGE' table and setup one 'DOCTOR'. The best way
to learn the features of MEDshare#1 is to start with the
'UTILITIES' section of the program and work your way UP the
MEDshare#1 MASTER MENU. Print out your MEDshare#1 user manual and
the README.2ND file and read both (at least become familiar with
their contents). If you have any problems on a specific data
element while entering data into MEDshare#1 just press the 'F1'
help key for assistance.
Please use our TECHNICAL SUPPORT LINE FOR ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY
HAVE IN USING MEDshare#1 - 972/736-1067. There is no charge for
this assistance other than you paying for the telephone call.
