     INSTALL
     -------

     First "ofcource" unpack the orginal distribution package into a sub -
     directory of your choice.

     For example :

     C:\MD ZYRION
     C:\CD ZYRION
     C:\ZYRION> ARJ E C:\NEWFILES\ZR400F.ZIP

     Now you need to "EDIT" your "AUTOEXEC.BAT" file, and add this statement

     SET ZSE=C:\ZYRION

     The ZSE environment is not needed, but it will speedup ZyRion a bit.

     Also include a Path statement, IF needed.

     SET PATH=C:\ZYRION

     IF you need a LOG file include this line :

     SET ZRLOG=C:\ZYRION\ZYRION.LOG

     Note that ZyRion.log can be any filename you want!

     At this point you are ready to - REBOOT - so that the  new Environments
     are active.

     If you did NOT read the file VERSIONS.TXT, please do that first before
     you proceed with the SETUPn instructions.


     SETUPn
     ------

     Second type again :

     C:\CD ZYRION
     C:\ZYRION> ZYRION SETUPn "Where n=COM1 - COM8 as integer."

     For Example IF you want to Setup ZyRion for COM4 type

     C:\ZYRION> ZYRION SETUP4

     If you have more lines, then simple Setup ZyRion for each line as above
     the range is from 1 - 4 [ UNREGISTERED ], and from 1 - 8 [ REGISTERED ]!


     SETUP CONFIGURATION
     -------------------

     Third step, now  you need to tell ZyRion how your configuration need to
     look like.


     WALK WITH ME AND LETS SETUP ZYRION!
     -----------------------------------

     Lets first fill out the packet section,name, BBS Name, Country e.c

     Here you need to Enter YOUR FULL name, Will be verified if you have
     a "KEY"!

     If you have NO KEY just press Enter!

     Owner Name Verification [ First and Lastname ]............>

     Next you need/or NOT to enter your BBS System name "IF ANY!"

     Please enter your BBS System Name [ Enter=NON ]...........>

     Enter here your REAL phone number [ for example 3145256961 ]

     Your Phone Number Please..................................>

     Enter now your country and City! (Real Please!!!!!!!!!)

     Country and City..........................................>

     The above lines are used to build a Hello Security Packet.
     
     IF you use a HIGH SPEED Modem, then you'll need to enter here the
     MAX. DTE Rate in Bits Per Seconds, For Example >38400
     
     IF Locked the -C parameter need to be used, otherwise the -B Parameter
     for this purpose more later in this documentation.

     Locked Rate in Bits Per Second [ Press ENTER = NON ]......>

     Enable/Disable Write Buffer, this option is Default Disabled, however
     IF Enabled it CAN improve your CPS rate!
     IF Enabled it will use an 32 Kbyte RAM Buffer between the I/O Matrix
     System of ZyRion and your HardDisk.

     Enable W_Buffer [ 32 Kb -- Default = OFF ] y/N............>


     This option will Enable a security LOG so you can see who has called
     with a Valid KEY or DEMO KEY or UNREGISTERED.
     By Default this option is ON, Enabled, but IF you don't need it you -
     can Disable it.

     Enable Security Log (Create "Secure.log") Y/n.............>

     Now we need to set the FIFO Transmit Interrupt Bytes, NOT needed
     If you have NO 16550A.. Installed, by default ZyRion will set this
     to 8!

     Setting FIFO TX Interrupt Bytes to [ Default=8 ]..........>

     IF you have a multitasker installed it would be better to use the -
     Verification I/O sequence, to be sure that DOS  will  verify for  -
     proper read/write operations, Also IF you have a slow system this -
     option need to be set to Y=ON!

     This option will slow down ZyRion a litle bit .004% but it is a safe
     way, therefore this option is set by default to ON.

     Set Write/Read Verification Y=ON N=OFF [ Default=ON ].....>


     By Default ZyRion uses Direct Screen writes, but you can Disable this
     method and use BIOS instead.

     Use BIOS Screen writes, y/N [ Default = No ]..............>


     ZyRion will "AUTO READ" your IRN number IF a key excist, otherwise it
     will be Disabled "000000000000" means, No KEY found, UNREGISTERED!

     Internal Rev. Number....... [ ZCR Mode ] IRN..............>ZR??????????


     How many HEADER Retry's should ZyRion do, before give up (Timeout).
     Default = 12, This includes extra frames and error retry's!

     Header Retry Counter, Sender only [ Default = 12 ]........>

     This will force the receiver to use a alternate Download Path
     whatsoever, the Download path on the command line, will be  -
     IGNORED!

     IF you want a variable Download Parameter use [ ENTER ] here!

     Default Download Path, or Press [ RETURN ] for NON........>

     Here you can define how you want the calculation, in CPS or
     in BPS or in "%"-Efficiency, IF you press Return here "%" -
     will be used (Default).

     CPS display unit E)fficiency in % or C)ps or B)ps.........>

     By Default ZyRion will send SubPackets with a size from 4096
     bytes, however you are free to change them, the range is from
     128 bytes - 4096 bytes, If you set the SubPacketSize to 128
     bytes then ZyRion will NOT exceed this size!

     However IF you have a REAL BAD phone line (central), then you
     can set the SubPacketSize to lower Packets, for Example 1024
     bytes, to advoid large retransmissions on Error hits, to keep
     the CPS rate in a good margin.

     Define SubPacket Size [ Range 128 - 4096 ]................>

     If you want you can Disable the Automatic hardware Handshake
     by default this is set to CTS/RTS (Normal Operation).

     Disable Automatic Hardware Handshaking y/N................>

     And at last you can Enable the Automatic Software Handshake
     XON/XOFF!

     Disable Automatic Software Handshaking Y/n................>

     Now Press Enter to close the PRM file, and this section is
     done.

     You are ready to use ZyRion, but _before_ you need to know
     the parameters, needed for the proper operation.

     ZYRION EXAMPLE
     --------------

     ZyRion and interface problems are NOT easy for some end users, so let me
     try to help you.

     First we know that we need the Port number [ COMX ], the Baudrate in BPS
     and the Up/Download Parameters, or IF Locked the Connect Rate.

     A lot of people searching in Docs and compare that with the Docs from -
     protocols, and then they hope that there is a answer somewhere.

     Most of the times you got stuck, becauce all kind of variable from the
     Terminal Communication Software.

     Lets assume we have a terminal called "TelComm" but you got stuck, now
     there is a simple method to find out what the passed variables are.

     Please note that ZyRion will Ignore batch transfers in UNREGISTERED Mode!

     Create a batch file called "GETVAR.BAT".

     Put in this batch file the following statements :

     COPY CON GETVAR.BAT
     ECHO OFF
     CLS
     ECHO %1
     ECHO %2
     ECHO %3
     ECHO %3
     ECHO %4
     ECHO %5
     ECHO %6
     ECHO %7
     ECHO %8
     PAUSE
     ^Z

     Now that we have created this batch file, let it call by your terminal -
     package, in our case "TelComm".
     First call this batch file in receive mode, and you'll see something like
     this :
     
     C:\NEWFILES\    [1]
     8               [2]
     N               [3]
     2400            [4]
     4               [5]

     Write this down, and do the same in Transmit mode, and you'll see some -
     thing like this :

     0                        [1]
     8                        [2]
     N                        [3]
     C:\TEMP\MYFILES\TELEM*.* [4]
     2400                     [5]
     4                        [6]

     Write this down to, ofcource you'll get other variables but its for that -
     you got the idea.

     Now with the above parameters we can make a ZSend.bat and a ZRcvd.bat for
     ZyRion.

     This would be look like this, NOTE: Not locked!

     COPY CON ZRCVD.BAT  (Receive)
     ECHO OFF
     CLS
     ZYRION RD -P%5 -B%4 %1
     ^Z

     You'll get this : ZYRION RD -P4 -B2400 C:\NEWFILES\


     COPY CON ZSEND.BAT
     ECHO OFF
     CLS
     ZYRION SD -P%6 -B%5 %4
     ^Z

     You'll get this : ZYRION SD -P4 -B2400 C:\TEMP\MYFILES\TELEM*.*


     Now we do the same but this time we know our terminal package is locked
     and ZyRion also at 38400 Bits Per Second DTE rate.

     C:\NEWFILES\    [1]
     8               [2]
     N               [3]
     2400            [4]
     4               [5]
     38400           [6]

     Write this down, and do the same in Transmit mode, and you'll see some -
     thing like this :

     38400                    [1]
     8                        [2]
     N                        [3]
     C:\TEMP\MYFILES\TELEM*.* [4]
     2400                     [5]
     4                        [6]

     Write this down to, ofcource you'll get other variables but its for that -
     you got the idea.

     Now with the above parameters we can make a ZSend.bat and a ZRcvd.bat for
     ZyRion.

     This would be look like this, NOTE: locked!

     COPY CON ZRCVD.BAT  (Receive)
     ECHO OFF
     CLS
     ZYRION RD -P%5 -C%4 %1
     ^Z

     You'll get this : ZYRION RD -P4 -C2400 C:\NEWFILES\


     COPY CON ZSEND.BAT
     ECHO OFF
     CLS
     ZYRION SD -P%6 -C%5 %4
     ^Z

     You'll get this : ZYRION SD -P4 -C2400 C:\TEMP\MYFILES\TELEM*.*

     Final the @<control File> option, this can be usefull if you send a lot of
     files, since DOS will not allow that many.

     All you need to do is REPLACE the %4 parameter with @MYCTL.CTL
     At this point ZyRion will process the plain Ascii file, your control file
     and ZyRion will send all files listed in this control file in batch mode
     You need to have a registered version for this purpose, since ZyRion will
     NOT allow Batch Transfers in UNREGISTERD Mode!

     Sample control file

     MYCTL.CTL
     C:\TEMP\FLIB20.ZIP
     D:\DOS\CHKDSK.EXE
     A:\TERM312.ZIP

     And so on, you can make this list so long as you want.

     In the above Examples we used the method like below :

     ZYRION SD -P4 -C2400 C:\TEMP\MYFILES\TELEM*.*

     But you can also do this :

     ZYRION SD -P4 -B9600 C:\*.ZIP A:\*.ARJ D:\TE*.* B:\*.GIF  [ and so on ].

     Thats all you'll need to do, and ZyRion will work!
