I/O Configuration
To inform the software of the hardware configuration, a Control
Panel applet is used. Open Control Panel and double-click on the
WiNRADiO icon. A dialog box will appear, which allows you to
specify the hardware configuration for the software.
Windows 3.1, 95 and 98
As can be seen, up to 8 internal cards can be configured, and for
each card installed, a suitable I/O address must be nominated.
In most situations, you can use the ‘Auto Detect’ feature, which will allow the software to
find all the internal cards and the IRQ and DMA settings for each. Only rare circumstances
stop the auto-detection from working.
If there are any problems with the settings (such as an address conflict), you will be notified
of the problem.
After you click on OK and any setting has been changed, you will be prompted to restart
Windows for the new settings to take effect.
Windows NT
Up to 9 receivers (internal and external) can be configured,
and for each receiver installed, its location must be
nominated.
In most situations you can use the ‘Auto Detect’ feature,
which will allow the software to find all internal I/O ports,
serial ports (must be switched on) and PC Card slots a
receiver is connected to. Note it will not detect the IRQ or
DMA settings for the internal receivers but will detect the
presence of the DSP.
An optional fifth field is provided that allows you to specify a name to be associated with the
receiver. The name will appear in the title of the main window instead of the traditional
‘WiNRADiO Spectrum Monitor #’ title.
After you click on OK, the new settings take immediate effect.
Uninstalling WiNRADiO
In Windows 95, 98 and NT 4, start up Control Panel and double-click on the ‘Add/Remove
Programs’ icon. Select ‘WiNRADiO’ from the list and click on the ‘Add/Remove’ button.
In Windows 3.1x and NT 3.5x, double-click on the ‘Uninstall WiNRADiO’ icon in the
program group that contains the WiNRADiO icon.
All software and changes to any configuration files will be removed from your hard disk.
