      This diskette contains installation programs for the ParaHubs, AF-152 and
      AF-142, for two-in-one-out and one-in-two-out modes.

1. INTRODUCTION

	This package contains a DOS driver routine for the ParaHub, which is 
	designed to give you full controls of the ParaHub by simple keystrokes.

	Once executed under DOS, a TSR program stays in the memory and
	can be activated by pressing several keys at the same time, and these 
	keys are Hot Keys.

2. INSTALLATION

	     1. Put the CD into drive D:.
	     2. Enter
			D:
	     3. Enter
			CD \AF152\DOS
	     4. Enter   
			INSTALL C:
		The INSTALLation program creates an AF directory in drive C:
		and copies necessay files to it.

3. EXECUTION 

	     To run the program, simply go to the AF directory and enter one
	     of the followings under DOS:
		- If the ParaHub connects to your computer's LPT1 port, enter:
			AF-152 1
		- If the ParaHub connects to your computer's LPT2 port, enter:
			AF-152 2
		- If the ParaHub connects to your computer's LPT3 port, enter:
			AF-152 3
			
	     One of the above commands may be added to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file
	     to run it automatically when your computer resets.

	     If, for any reason, this TSR program can not co-exist with other
	     TSR program, you may un-load it by entering this command at DOS
	     prompt:
			AF152 U<Enter>

4. OPERATION

	     To activate the TSR program, simply hold down 'Alt' key, the 'Shift'
	     key on the left keyboard, then press a third key.  These keys are
	     the Hot Keys.  For example, to bring up the HELP screen, press:

			-----  -----------  -----
			|Alt|  |LeftShift|  | H |
			-----  -----------  -----

	     The HELP screen pops up and shows you all the options provided by
	     this program.

	     When TSR is activated by Hot Keys, it displays two characters at
	     the upper left corner of the screen for one second as
	     acknowledgement.  The acknowledgements are:

		    For 1-in-2-out mode:
	      +-------------------------------+----------------------------+
	      |   Acknowledgement & Hot Keys  |          Function          |
	      +-----+-------------------------+----------------------------+
	      | PA  |   [Alt][LeftShift] [A]  |       Link to Port A       |
	      +-----+-------------------------+----------------------------+
	      | PA  |   [Alt][LeftShift] [1]  |       Link to Port A       |
	      +-----+-------------------------+----------------------------+
	      | PB  |   [Alt][LeftShift] [B]  |       Link to Port B       |
	      +-----+-------------------------+----------------------------+
	      | PB  |   [Alt][LeftShift] [2]  |       Link to Port B       |
	      +-----+-------------------------+----------------------------+
	      | Br  |   [Alt][LeftShift] [X]  |       Broadcast Mode       |
	      +-----+-------------------------+----------------------------+
	      | Br  |   [Alt][LeftShift] [C]  |       Broadcast Mode       |
	      +-----+-------------------------+----------------------------+

		    For 2-in-1-out mode:
	      +-------------------------------+----------------------------+
	      |   Acknowledgement & Hot Keys  |          Function          |
	      +-----+-------------------------+----------------------------+
	      | LE  |   [Alt][LeftShift] [L]  |    File Transfer Enable    |
	      +-----+-------------------------+----------------------------+
	      | LE  |   [Alt][LeftShift] [E]  |    File Transfer Enable    |
	      +-----+-------------------------+----------------------------+
	      | UD  |   [Alt][LeftShift] [U]  |    File Transfer Disable   |
	      +-----+-------------------------+----------------------------+
	      | UD  |   [Alt][LeftShift] [D]  |    File Transfer Disable   |
	      +-----+-------------------------+----------------------------+

	  Note: The two-character acknowledgement is effective in TEXT mode
		only.

	     To select Port 'A', press:

			-----  -----------  -----
			|Alt|  |LeftShift|  | A |
			-----  -----------  -----
				or
			-----  -----------  -----
			|Alt|  |LeftShift|  | 1 |
			-----  -----------  -----

	     'PA' should appear at the upper-left corner for one second.  

	     If the Hot Keys coincide with other TSR program's, you may hold
	     down a 'Ctrl' key along with an 'Alt' key and the left 'Shift' key
	     to resolve Hot Keys conflict.  For example:

			-----  -----------  ------  -----
			|Alt|  |LeftShift|  |Ctrl|  | A |
			-----  -----------  ------  -----
				 or
			-----  -----------  ------  -----
			|Alt|  |LeftShift|  |Ctrl|  | 1 |
			-----  -----------  ------  -----

	 END
