SWV20 Version 1.1
Copyright 1987 Thomas M. Langley
All Rights Reserved
SWV20 is a driver for the NEC V-Series microprocessors that
enables the 8 bit emulation mode of the device and creates an
environment that emulates a superset of the 8 bit CP/M. SWV20
runs on any V20 or V30 equipped microcomputer running C/M-86,
MP/M-86, Concurrent CP/M-86, Concurrent DOS-86 or Concurrent PC-
DOS. SWV20 can operate as SW! in a CompuPro environment and be
automatically invoked by the system shell during program search.
The program operating in the 8 bit environment has access to
nearly all of the function calls available under the host
operating system, thus far more than normally available under CP/M
version 2.2.
Installation:
To install SWV20, copy the SWV20.CMD file, the SWV20I.BAT file and
the *.INP files onto your hard disk or second floppy and log onto
that drive. Next, make sure that sid86 or ddt86 is present on the
a drive and that it's user number is 0 (root directory for a DOS
disk), and enter SWV20I swname [C]
swname is the command name to be used for the new SWV20
use SW! for CompuPro.
C if entered (the [] means it's optional and should
not be entered) means this is for a CompuPro system.
The batch file will create the file swname.CMD
Now for all systems except CompuPro, load each 8 bit program onto
your system and change the .COM extension to .CPM. For CompuPro
systems, copy the .COM program onto your system and run the 8BIT
utility supplied with Concurrent DOS-816 to set the proper file
attributes. That's all there is to it. To run a program enter
the program name you gave SWV20 and the CP/M command line. For
example: to run the 8 bit program ddt on test.com and you gave the
program the name SWV20 you would enter - SWV20 DDT TEST.COM. For
CompuPro systems, there is no need to enter the SW! program name
just enter DDT TEST.COM and the system shell will internally
invoke SW! when it detects that the request is for an 8 bit
program. NOTE for CompuPro Systems: When setting up the COMPUPRO
switch programs, assume an 8085/8088 system UNLESS you are using
SPU-Z in which case there is no need for SWV20. There are
additional switch programs involved if you have various slave
processors installed in your system. You can install SWV20 in
place of SW!8085 that came with your system. You can use SWV20
with the CPU-8085/88 board or CPU-8086/87.
