Troy Dimms
There are 3 Troy 4100 series check printers on campus. W_MONEYMACHINE is the AP checkprinter. W_SISCHECK is the cashier's printer for SIS checks. W_CHA_CHING is in feepayment and is a hot backup for either sis or ap printers. Remember that the Banner queue is tied to the ip address determined by the network card in the printer. Each printer has 2 dimms. One is troy firmware and one is ours. Moneymachine and cha_ching both have our check images in dimm 0. Sischeck has them in dimm 1. You can't change this. It is determined by what Troy initialized their own dimm to
In order to move files back and forth, you need to pull the network card, hook up to the printer with a bidirectional cable on lpt1, and add the printer to your machine on lpt1. The files that go in there are in the business office group.
SIS all on dimm 0:
DARIN.all
LOGO.all
PAGE0.all
SEAL.all
FIS all on dimm 0:
DARIN_AP.all
LOGO_AP.all
PAGE_AP.all
SEAL_AP.all
Initialization file:
INIT0.all
Print test:
TEST1.all
In order to execute one of these files you have to run from dos in the appropriate directory the command....... copy filename.all lpt1: They either copy a macro to the dimm or in the case of test1,make a test printout of the macro. You will see the printer flash processing job if you are talking to it correctly
The software used to generate these files is tform.exe from the versacheck disk. You create a numbered macro and then go to flash/dimms under print and download to a file
SISCHECK is all on dimm1 and the sis files above won't copy over. They're ponted to dimm 0. You can either try editing them to dimm1 with a binary editor or using tform. In tform you would open filename.grp. Go to file/print/RAM-FLASH-DISK. Select the lpt1 printer in the Driver/Port. Choose the fsa xxxx Device 0 or fsa xxxx Device 1 depending on which dimm you want the macro to go to. Select download and download to file.
