The product consists of the following:¶

Directory: 210913C-xx-01
User area: FLOPPY-USER

File name	Type	Contents
MON-CALL-LIB	MODE	Mode file to install library files
MON-CALL-NAMES	MODE	Mode file to install name file
MON-CALL-1B-C	BRF	Monitor call library for ND-100 1-bank
MON-CALL-2B-C	BRF	Monitor call library for ND-100 2-bank
MON-CALL-LIB-C	NRF	Monitor call library for ND-500/5000
MON-CALL-NAMES-C	DATA	Monitor call names

Installation procedure¶

The file MON-CALL-NAMES-C:DATA must be copied to user area SYSTEM, the other files may reside on any user area. All files must have public read access.

Log in as user area SYSTEM and insert the diskette in the floppy drive.

Enter the directory on the floppy:

@ENTER-DIRECTORY 210913C,FLOPPY-DISC-<controller no.>,<floppy-unit>

Copy the monitor calls name file to disk:
```
@MODE (210913C:FLOPPY-USER)MON-CALL-NAMES:MODE,,
```
The library files are usually placed on user area SYSTEM, but they may reside on any user area. If necessary, change user area to the one selected, and copy the library files to disk:
```
@MODE (210913C:FLOPPY-USER)MON-CALL-LIB:MODE,,
```

Release the directory and remove the diskette:
```
@RELEASE-DIRECTORY 210913C
```
