Zoomer Users
============

For installing Expert Mode on the Zoomer, first, establish a connection between a computer and the Zoomer. This is most likely done with a serial cable and GEOS Ensemble running on the PC. Then, load the Expert Mode files from the Expert Mode floppy disk onto the PC. You are now ready to start.

1. Connect the serial cable to your PC and Zoomer. Set up the Connect options under the Preferences of both PC/GEOS and the Zoomer.

2. Start GeoManager on your PC. Click on the "Connect" button. Launch File Manager on the Zoomer and select "File Linking" under the Connect menu. The two machines should connect and you'll be ready to transfer the files.

3. Using GeoManager on the PC, open drive B of the Zoomer.

4. Change to the Geoworks\World directory. Your path should now read:

      B:[INTERNAL]\GEOWORKS\WORLD

5. Copy the following Expert Mode file to this directory:

      EXPERT.GEO

6. You can optionally install the help file that goes along with Expert Mode. If you want the help file, follow the next two steps. If you don't want the help file, skip the next two steps.

7. Now change to the Geoworks\Userdata\Help directory. Your path should now read:

      B:[INTERNAL]\GEOWORKS\USERDATA\HELP

8. Copy the following file:

      EXPERT__.000

This completes the installation of Expert Mode to your Zoomer. Thank you and we hope you enjoy using Expert Mode!


OmniGo Users
============

For an OmniGo, follow these steps to install Expert Mode:

  To install Expert Mode to the OmniGo, you must get the Installer program. You can get Installer from America Online, CompuServe, or the BMS web page (http://members.aol.com/nfiedler/). Use Installer to extract the EXPERT.GPK file into the Expert Mode program and its help file, and transfer them directly to the OmniGo. Here are the basic steps:

  1. Turn on your computer and OmniGo. Connect using a serial cable.

  2. Run Transfer on the OmniGo, and select PC, then Connect. Start Installer on the PC, and select the appropriate COM port (the one the serial cable is plugged into).

  3. In Intaller, select the drive and directory where EXPERT.GPK is located (initially it is on the floppy disk with these instructions), and select Install to install the program. The Expert Mode program and help file will be copied over to the OmniGo.

  4. Exit Installer on the PC, and close Transfer on the OmniGo.

  5. Now you can run Expert Mode. It will be located on the Home Screen.

This completes the installation of Expert Mode to your OmniGo. Thank you and I hope you enjoy using Expert Mode!
