System Requirements 2
To use SPM for system programming, you need the SPM diskette and an
approved PC with version 3.3 (or later) of MS-DOS
. At a minimum, your PC
should support and include the following items:
■ At least 640 kbytes of RAM
■ A floppy disk drive that will accommodate the SPM diskette (3.5-inch or
5.25-inch)
■ A monochrome or color monitor
■ A serial port that can use either a DB-9 or DB-25 connector
■ For a DB-9 connector, use a 9-pin to 25-pin adapter to attach the 25-pin
connector of the RS-232 interface cable.
■ An RS-232 interface cable of appropriate length for your site connection(s)
Depending on how you connect the PC to the control unit, you also need the
following items:
■ Direct local connection, if the PC is within 50 ft. of the control unit.
— Either a 355AF modular adapter (if there is a male connector on the
interface cable) or a 355A modular adapter (if there is a female
connector on the interface cable)
— A four-pair modular cord (D8W)
