the drivers currently installed on the computer.
4. Check for a “Midiman PORTMAN PC/P w/ LEDs,” “Midiman
PORTMAN PC/P no LEDs,” or “Midiman PORTMAN PC/P” entry
in the list of Installed Drivers. If none of them exist in the list, then
please continue to Step 5. However, if any of those three drivers do
exist, then the PORTMAN driver (or a previous version of the dri-
ver) has been previously installed. It will need to be removed —
discontinue this FIRST TIME WINDOWS 3.1 DRIVER INSTALLA-
TION procedure and instead go to the section UPDATING THE
WINDOWS 3.1 DRIVER.
5. Push the “Add” button.
6. Select the “Unlisted or Updated Driver” entry and push the “OK”
button.
7. You will be prompted for a disk drive from which to read the
Windows 3.1 drivers. Insert the PORTMAN PC/P diskette into
your floppy disk drive, and if necessary, enter the disk drive specifi-
cation (usually A: or B:) in the prompt box. Enter OK.
8. When the “Add Unlisted or Updated Driver” Window pops up,
select the “Midiman PORTMAN PC/P w/LEDs” and enter OK.
The PORTMAN PC/P MIDI Interface Setup dialog box will then
appear.
9. Select the proper Port Address and IRQ settings that match the
actual hardware settings of your computer’s printer port.
Typically, LPT1 will be address 3BCh or 378h on a desktop comput-
er. Also typically, if LPT2 is installed, it will be at address 278h.
Usually LPT1 uses IRQ7 and LPT2 uses IRQ5. You may also select
other “non-standard” IRQs if required to do so — checking the
“Use Custom Port/IRQ” checkbox will make “non-standard” IRQs
available for driver use.
If you are unsure of what your Port Address is, please see the sec-
tion in this manual titled “About Your Printer Port,” or consult your
computer’s owner’s manual.
10.Once the Port Address and IRQ are selected, press the <OK> but-
ton.
11. In order for Windows to complete the new driver installation, you
will be required to exit and restart Windows. Select the <Restart
Now> button to do so.
12.Windows will restart. You will then be asked to run the one-time
calibration of the PORTMAN.
