The DTU3005 Editor software can be installed from
the DOS prompt onto a PC running Microsoft® Win-
dows version 3.1, 95, or 98. The PC processor must be
less than 300 MHz (or have a utility program installed
to slow down the processor speed) for the Editor soft-
ware to work properly.
Note: The DTU3005 Editor software does not work in
a Windows NT environment.
If you are running Windows 3.1, double click the MS-
DOS Prompt icon in the
Main
