The COMP.DAT in XENIX is binary. If you copy it into PC-DMIS, the file does not work.
From the AVAIL Software Package
Boot the computer under XENIX or UNIX.
Log on as "root", and type "hobbit" as the password.
Copy the AVAIL error compensation file to the PC-DMIS subdirectory on the DOS partition (that is, PCDMISW). The file is in one of two places: /usr/service or /usr/avail/trans/report:
doscp /usr/service/comp.asc c:/pcdmisw
or
doscp /usr/avail/trans/report/comp.asc c:/pcdmisw
Issue a shutdown or reboot command to UNIX:
shutdown -y -g0
or
reboot
Reboot the computer in DOS.
Change the directory to where PC-DMIS is installed (for example, PCDMISW).
CD \PCDMISW
Rename the COMP.ASC file to COMP.DAT:
REN COMP.ASC COMP.DAT
From the MM4 Software Package
Boot the computer under XENIX or UNIX.
Login as "root" and give "hobbit" as the password.
Log in and change the directory to /u/mm4/sys_data/files:
cd /u/mm4/sys_data/files
Copy the MM4 error compensation file to the PC-DMIS subdirectory on the DOS partition (that is, PCDMISW).
doscp comp.asc c:/pcdmisw
Issue a shutdown or reboot command to UNIX:
shutdown -y -g0
or
reboot
Reboot the computer in DOS.
Change the directory to where PC-DMIS is installed (for example, PCDMISW).
CD \PCDMISW
Rename the COMP.ASC file to COMP.DAT:
REN COMP.ASC COMP.DAT
From the MM3 Software Package
Boot the computer under DOS.
Change the directory to \MM3\SERVICE:
CD \MM3\SERVICE
Copy the MM3 error compensation file to the PC-DMIS subdirectory (that is, PCDMISW):
copy comp.asc \pcdmisw
Change the directory to where PC-DMIS is installed (for example, PCDMISW).
CD \PCDMISW
Rename the COMP.ASC file to COMP.DAT:
REN COMP.ASC COMP.DAT
