Where to Start
We suggest you ease yourself into the world of schematic editing and sim-
ulation with LogicWorks by taking the following steps:
1. Install the package using the procedures outlined in Chapter 2,
Getting Started, and read any “ReadMe” files supplied on the
disk with the package.
2. If you are using LogicWorks for the first time, work first
through Chapter 4, Tutorial. It provides step-by-step
instructions for basic schematic editing.
3. Refer to Chapter 5, Schematic Editing, for background on basic
editing techniques.
