• F: Central configuration via bus

A: If the disconnection is not finished correctly, the AS continues transmitting picture

data (S 38x is appearing as error message). If another AS is selected from the
configuration AS via ANMS, pictures were shown from the last linked AS and the
new linked AS alternately.

E: Now unfamiliar AS picture data were rejected and reported with the new system

error message S 397 including the bus/station no. of the faulty transmitting AS
(error text: Picture data from no longer linked AS).

4.2 ASBEDIEN under Windows NT

There is a new version 2.0 of the operating program in the directory ASBEDIEN.NT on the
extracted IBS tool diskette now, which works under Windows NT / 2000.
You can choose a German or an English program version (see below and the user
documentation ASBEDIEN.doc or ASBEDI_E.doc).
Installation:
For the German version you have to use the files ASBEDIEN.EXE, ASBEDIEN.ERR and
ASBEDIEN.INI from the directory ASBEDIEN.NT, for the English version the files
ASBEDI_E.EXE, ASBEDI_E.ERR and ASBEDIEN.INI.
The two character set files *.FNT needed for the correct screen display have to be copied
into the Windows system directory FONTS during installation of ASBEDIEN/NT. If they are
already existing there (e.g. by PROGRAF AS+/NT), the old character sets have to be
deleted first. The new ones are compatible to those of PROGRAF AS+/NT, and are
included also in the new version 4.01 of PROGRAF AS+/NT.
With these character sets the AS characters and therefore the ASBEDI_E window can be
displayed with two sizes. The selection small or big depends on the resolution of the used
grafic module (min 1152 x 864 for the big display).
