If you are UPDATING from an earlier version of LAN-LINK or PK232COM,
the Configuration files are not compatible. You must use the
Configuration file(s) supplied on this disk.
LAN-LINK uses HARDWARE Handshaking between the PC and the TNC, you must
have the cable wired correctly. A cable with three signal wires will not
work correctly.
Before you operate for the first time, bring up LAN-LINK and
use the options in the Parameter Menu to configure LAN-LINK to your
station and way of operating. AS A MINIMUM, CHANGE THE CALLSIGNS. Read
Section 18 of the documentation to see what the customization is capable of.
Update/Save the configuration file when finished.
LAN-LINK FILES
LAN-LINK EXE The program, run it.
LL156DOC EXE Self extracting LAN-LINK DOC Documentation file.
It is too big to fit on a 5.25" disk. (* Note 1)
KAM SYS Configuration file for KAM.
KPC SYS Configuration file for KPC.
LAN-LINK SYS Configuration file for PK232.
MFJ1278 SYS Configuration file for MFJ1278.
TNC1 SYS Configuration file for TNC1.
TNC2 SYS Configuration file for TNC2.
YAPP CNF Configuration file for YAPP (use in YAPP).
If you don't have a PK232, rename LAN-LINK.SYS to PK232.SYS,
then rename your TNC.SYS file to LAN-LINK.SYS and configure it.
For example, if you are using a KAM,
rename LAN-LINK.SYS to PK232.SYS, then
rename KAM.SYS to LAN-LINK.SYS.
LAN-LINK will run unconfigured, but please configure the callsigns
at least.
Note 1: If you are using a 3.5", LL156DOC.EXE is replaced
by the full documentation file, LAN-LINK.DOC, so you don't need
to extract it.
