Introduction
General
To run the After Sales SW, a parallel port software protection device (PKD–1) has to be
connected. The user can use WinTesla functions in modules for testing NME–3 mobile
stations (MS). The test functions send test messages from PC to MS and receive results
and show them in the PC display. The messages can be sent via M2BUS.
Note: if this software is to be run on laptops, the power saving feature MUST be switched
off.
Hardware requirements for Windows 3.1x
The recommended minimum hardware standard to run Service Software is any com-
puter which is 386 33 MHz or greater with at least 4 MB of memory and VGA type display
(640 x 480). This assumes that only the WinTesla with After Sales Support Modules is
active, i.e. other Windows packages are not running in the background.
Hardware requirements for Windows 95
The recommended minimum hardware standard to run Service Software is any com-
puter which has Pentium processor, memory 8 MB and meets HW requirements recom-
mended by Microsoft.
Software Environment of the Support Modules
The Service Software user interface is intended for the following environments: Micro-
soft Windows 3.1x (enhanced mode) and Windows 95 environment running in en-
hanced mode. Support for Microsoft NT may be added, if required. Detailed information
about Windows and application usage can be found from the Microsoft Windows Ver-
sion 3.1 Users Guide chapter one (Windows Basics) and chapter two (Application Ba-
sics).
As an ordinary Windows application, the main idea in the user interface is that selections
are made with menus, push buttons and shortcut keys. Selections can be done by using
keyboard and/or mouse. There is always a status bar displayed at the bottom of the
main window which contains information about current actions.
