Re: ADT on a //c

[noone@nowhere.net]

I modified instructions for you from the CSA2 FAQ not included with the
ADT program.  I believe this will simplify the process for you.  I can
not verify this at this time as I do not have the cable for a IIc.

     If you find you just can't get your communications software to
transfer that ADT file, then lets try it without any comm software at
all.  We will still essentially make the IBM type in the program on the
Apple II using the comm ports of both computers. 

For the Apple Computer--- 

4. Plug in the cable to both computers.  (Properly wired cable is the
key.) 

For the WinDoze Computer-- 

5. Uncompress the ADT122.zip into a folder with the name adt122 on the
root of the C: drive for convenience.  (I use Winzip for ease of use.) 

6. Boot up a DOS disk and get to a DOS prompt.  For a Windows 95/98/ME
computer,  use a 'dos window' by selecting Start/ Programs/ MSDOS
Prompt. 

7. Set up the port for communications.  Type in the following command at
the dos prompt, replace the X with a port number,  1 or 2 where the 
cable is plugged into the PC. 

mode comX baud=300 data=8 stop=1 parity=n 
  
Now-- 

8. Turn on the Apple IIc and Press Control REset to get to a prompt. 
Then type the floowing two line pressing the Enter key after each line.

IN#2 
Ctrl-A6B


9. Go back to your Windows machine and type this into your Dos Prompt
window.  Replace the X with the port number, 1 or 2 as you did above. 

cd \adt122
TYPE DOS33.DMP>comX 

10. You will see the DOS file being typed in by your PC.
