Using Programming Utilities
The PSC portable comes with a collection of applications and utilities
on a disk. This collection is called the Portable Applications Library, or
PAL. Two of the utilities,
PDPROG and PERCPROG, enable
programming of the portable from DOS or Windows.
Both programming utilities check the version number of the portable’s
operating system. If it is different from the PAL version, it installs the
operating system along with the application.
PERCPROG
PERCPROG is the utility used to program a PSC portable through
Windows.
To customize the installation of an application, complete the following
steps:
1. Connect the portable to the PC (refer to page 18 for information
on getting started.).
2. Double-click on the Portable Programmer icon in the PSC PAL
program group. The PSC
Portable Programmer window will
open (refer to
Figure 4-1).
Note: For complete information about PAL, including installation
instructions, refer to the Falcon Portable Applications
Library (PAL) User’s Guide.
Note: The figures in this chapter show the utilities in Windows 95.
When using a different version of Windows, the utility
windows may look slightly different.
