Advisories
Three types of advisories are used throughout the manual to stress important points or warn of potential
hazards to the user or the system. They are the Note, the Caution, and theWarning. Following is an example
of each type of advisory:
Note: The note is used to present special instruction, or to provide extra information which may
help to simplify the use of the product.
CAUTION!
A Caution is used to alert you to a situation which if ignored may cause injury or
damage equipment.
WARNING!
AWarningisusedtoalertyouofasituationwhichifignoredwillcauseseriousinjury.
Cautions and Warnings are accented with triangular symbols. The exclamation symbol is used in all cautions
and warnings to help alert you to the important instructions. The lightning flash symbol is used on the left
hand side of a caution or a warning if the advisory relates to the presence of voltage which may be of
sufficient magnitude to cause electrical shock.
Use caution when servicing any electrical component. We have tried to identify the areas which may pose
a Caution or Warning condition in this manual; however, ICS Advent does not claim to have covered all
situations which might require the use of a Caution or Warning.
You must refer to the documentation for any component you install into a computer system to ensure proper
precautions and procedures are followed.

Chapter 1: Installation
Backing up the Disk
The software provided with theAOBx/12 is in MS-DOS format on diskette.You should make back-
up copies for everyday use and place your original master diskette in a safe location.You may make
as many back-up copies as needed.
The easiest way to make a back-up copy is to use the DOS DISKCOPY utility. First, use the DOS
command FORMAT/S to format a new diskette and then copy files from the master diskette.
In a single-drive system, the command is: DISKCOPY A: A:
You will need to swap disks as requested by the system.
In a two-disk system, the command is: DISKCOPY A: B:
This will copy the contents of the master disk in driveA to the back-up disk in drive B.
Hard Disk Installation
The files contained on the master diskette may also be copied onto your hard disk. To do this
perform the following:
1. Place the master diskette into a floppy drive.
2. Changetheactive drivetothedrivethat hasthemasterdisketteinstalled. Forexample,ifthe
diskette is the A drive, type A:
3. TypeINSTALL and follow the screen prompts.
Files contained on the disk are stored in separate directories as follows:
ROOT DIRECTORY: Contains the FINDBASE PROGRAM that will help you to decide
what base address to use with the card. Also contains the
DA12SET.EXE setup and calibration program.
PSAMPLES: Contains Pascal samples and the Pascal-linkable driver.
CSAMPLES: Contains “C” samples and the “C”-linkable driver.
BSAMPLES: Contains the BASIC and QuickBASIC samples as well as the
binaryandlinkabledrivers.
VBACCESS: VisualBASIC utility driver that includes PEEK and POKE
statements for reading and writing RAM as well as INPORT and
OUTPORT for reading and writing I/O. The driver is in the form
ofa DLL and allows you to access hardware as if thelanguage was
designed for it when you use VisualBASIC for Windows.
