3. Demo Installation:
---------------------

For full information please refer to JIDA32.PDF

Windows 9x, Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows XP:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Run the sample JidaTst.EXE in the \Win9xNT\bin directory which will dynamically 
install the drivers.

Under Win NT you need Admin rights to install the drivers for the first time.

For Windows 9x Watchdog you to manually install an additional driver.
See JIDA32.PDF for details, especially for board with Winbond controllers.

Windows XP Embedded:
- - - - - - - - - -

The Kontron Windows XPE Solution Pack also includes the JIDA interface. So you don't
need to do the manual install. You might need to copy over the JIDA binaries
since this package might contain newer version. Please check the time stamp.

The binaries are the same as for regular XP.

Windows NT Embedded:
- - - - - - - - - -

The Kontron Windows NTE Solution Pack also includes the JIDA interface. So you don't
need to do the manual install. You might need to copy over the JIDA binaries
since this package might contain newer version. Please check the time stamp.

The binaries are the same as for regular NT.

Windows CE:
- - - - - - 

The Kontron Windows CE Solution Pack also includes the JIDA interface. So you don't
need to do the manual install. You might need to copy over the JIDA binaries
since this package might contain newer version. Please check the time stamp.

Add these line to the MODULES section of any *.BIB file:

    jida.dll        $(_FLATRELEASEDIR)\jida.dll             NK  SH
    jidac.dll       $(_FLATRELEASEDIR)\jidac.dll            NK  SH
    jidatst.exe     $(_FLATRELEASEDIR)\jidatst.exe          NK  S
    jwdogtst.exe    $(_FLATRELEASEDIR)\jwdogtst.exe         NK  S

Place the three files from the \WinCE\bin directory into any files directory.

The drivers are dynamically installed upon running JIDATST.EXE. You can do that
in your own application as well.

Alternatively load the driver on start-up with these line in any *.REG file:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\JidaC]
   "Dll"="jidac.dll"
   "Prefix"="JDA"
   "Index"=dword:1
   "Order"=dword:9

Linux:
- - - -

Copy the files form the Linux directory to your Linux root directory. 
See JIDA32.PDF for details.

VxWorks:
- - - - -

Copy the files form the VxWorks directory to your Tornado directory. 
See JIDA32.PDF for details.
