Starting The RSS
Create a Back-up Copy of RSS
Diskette(s)
We recommend that you make a back-up copy of the RSS. To make a
back-up copy, follow these steps:
1. Insert the RSS diskette you received with this manual into drive A.
2. Type DISKCOPY A: A:
3. Keep the original RSS diskettes in a safe place away from magnets,
moisture and heat.
What To Do with Previous
Versions of RSS Diskettes
It is recommended that you discard previous versions of the RSS so
that the RSS version you have is the very latest. This will also ensure
that you do not mistakenly program a radio with outdated data.
Note: The latest RSS version usually has updated codeplug
structures which cannot be read by old versions of RSS.
Installing the RSS on your Hard
Disk
Install the latest RSS version as soon as you receive it. The software
installation will take approximately three minutes, but this duration
may vary based on the processing power of your computer.
The INSTALL program will:
❒ Create the MRSS, MCS and ARCHIVE directories if they do not
already exist.
❒ Create OFP, SYSKEY, SRIB and UPGRADE directories.
❒ Write over the old version’s program files with the same name, if
they exist.
The INSTALL program will NOT write over your archive files.
You may install the RSS on several personal computers and laptop
computers at a single site depending on the terms of your license. If you
have additional sites (such as a second shop), you should purchase
additional subscriptions.
Note:
The RSS is NOT a Windows program. If you have Windows
loaded, the RSS program will not operate properly.
Caution
Accidentally reversing the insertion order of the diskettes
will erase the contents of the RSS diskette. You will be
prompted to insert the source diskette (the original RSS
diskette) and the target diskette (a newly formatted one)
respectively. When the disk copy command has been
executed, use the target diskette as the new working
copy.
