Unlike previous versions of OmniCom, there are a number of ways in
which you can safely install OmniCom. You can do this through using
Windows Explorer or using the Start/Run feature. You no longer have
to install from the DOS command prompt. When executing the self-extracting
OmniCom file you download from the Omni webpage, you will be prompted
for a directory to install OmniCom to. You must choose to install
OmniCom to a directory that does not currently exist, for example:
C:\OMNI73.17. If you already have a copy of Omnicom installed, do
not attempt to install this copy over it. You must remove the old
version of OmniCom first or rename the old OmniCom directory before
beginning a new install to a directory by the same name.
If you wish to install the downloaded OmniCom on another PC, simply
copy the downloaded executable file to a floppy diskette and you can
install it on another PC.
OmniCom defaults to version 20 the first time it is started. If you
wish to communicate with Omni flow computers that have a version of
firmware other than 20, use the UTIL/OMNICOM APPLICATION menu in OmniCom
to change to that version.
Note: Unlike previous versions of Windows, when running OmniCom as
a DOS session under Windows 2000 or XP, Windows 2000 and XP have the
"Quick Edit Mode" turned on by default. Quick Edit Mode
allows use of the mouse to select text, cut, copy and paste in the
command shell. OmniCom is not compatible with this mode. If you right
click on the OmniCom icon and select properties and go to the Misc
tab you will see that "quick edit mode" is greyed out and
cannot be changed. You have to do the following to change it.
1) Run Omnicom but do not press any keys.
2) Right click the title bar of the DOS window, select properties
and uncheck quick edit mode.
3) Click OK.
4) Select Save Properties for Future Windows with the same Title and
click OK.
5) Exit Omnicom and then restart Omnicom.You should now be able to
use the mouse in Omnicom.
