CSW Host

 o After Setup to install CSW Host, you have the option to Continue or Exit Windows.
    We recommend that you  Exit Windows and run one of the supplied batch files, 
    WINCSWH.BAT or WINHOST.BAT.  WINCSWH.BAT loads the CSW Host 
    TSR (HOST.EXE) and the Redirector TSR (MAPDRV.COM) before starting Windows,  
    whereas WINHOST.BAT just loads the CSW Host TSR before starting Windows.

  o The WINHOST.BAT and WINCSWH.BAT batch files include a command "Host -a -q"
     to insure Host acquires the COM Port before Windows is started.  This is essential if
     you want to connect to the Host and subsequently run DOS boxes remotely.  If Host
     has not successfully acquired the COM Port before Windows starts, then when going
     to DOS boxes, the line will disconnect.  This problem is being analyzed for a better
     approach.

  o Standard mode is supported but currently the performance with Standard mode in 
     remote control is very slow.  This problem is being analyzed.

  o CSW Host and Remote have been tested with the following display drivers:
       -Mach driver from ATI; use version 2.11 or greater;
       -Wonder driver from ATI;
       -SpeedStar driver from Diamond;
       -VIPER driver from Diamond;
       -Stealth Pro driver from Diamond;
       -Cirrus driver from Cirrus Logic;
       -Rocket driver from Western Digital;
       -Kelvin 64 driver from Orchid;
       -Fahrenheit 1280 Plus from Orchid.
       
     The tested driver list is ongoing and is updated weekly.

 o If you get a blank screen on the CSW Remote when going to a full-screen DOS box, 
    try putting the following line in the SYSTEM.INI file in the [Enh] section:
      
          SysVMin2ndBank=0
    
o If Windows resources are critical, you can suppress the loading of the CSWH Control
   Center.  This can be done by renaming CSWH.EXE.  Alternatively, edit the WINCSWH.BAT
   or WINHOST.BAT batch files and add the command-line option "-nc" to the Host line.  This
   suppresses loading CSWH.EXE and CHAT.EXE.  For example,  HOST -a -nc.


CSW Remote

 o After Setup to install CSW Remote, you have the option to Exit or Restart Windows.
    If you want to use the Redirector capabilities, then Exit Windows and run the supplied 
    batch file, WINCSWR.BAT.  This batch file loads the Redirector TSR (MAPDRV.COM)
    before starting Windows.

o Baud rates higher than 19.2 KB are Not recommended unless your serial port is a 16550.
   Baud rate of 115.2 KB is not supported with Windows or Triton's Comm drivers; however,
   115.2 KB works with the TurboCom/2 driver from Pacific CommWare.  At this rate, at least
   a 16550 UART is mandatory.

o Multiple instances of CSW Remote has the limitation that only one (1) of the 
   simultaneous remote control sessions can control a Host running Windows; the
   other simultaneous remote control sessions, for v1.0, can only control a Host
   running DOS text or graphics.

o Voice/data switching is not working. This problem is being worked on.

o To get full screen Remote Window view, make sure the option "Hide Title When 
   Maximized" in the Terminal setup is enabled.

o When maximizing the remote control window to go full-screen a notification box is 
   displayed by default telling you how to get back to a "windowed" remote control window; 
   if you select the check box to subsequently suppress this notification, it is saved in 
   CSW.INI under the option "Show HotKey Message".   

o Printing issues:
   For those users who have printers selected which do not support PASSTHROUGH
   data streams, CSW will access the printer port directly.  This may cause some
   intermixing of printed output if you are trying to print with a local
   application to the same LPT port.  It is suggested that you postpone any local
   printing operation if you intend to use CSW for printing operations.

o The CSW Remote is compatible with Host versions 6.1a or greater.


Redirector (MAPDRV.COM)

 o Accessing a redirected drive from within a DOS box on either the Host or Remote
    is a problem and it is being analyzed.

o There are no default redirected drives defined for the Host.  To use drives on the
   Host redirected to real drives on the Remote you must first define them using the
   MAPSETUP.EXE utility at DOS or the Redirector function in the CSW Host
   Control Center.

o There are default redirected drives defined on the CSW Remote.  These start
    with the first drive designator after the last physical drive.

o Generally, CD-ROM drive designators take precedence over the Redirector, so these
   drive designators cannot be used.


Miscellaneous

o the DOS versions of the CoSession Phone Book, Options, and MAPDRV Setup utilities 
   are included as a convenience to allow maintenance of the CSW Host Phone Book,
   Options, and Redirector Map files from DOS as well as from Windows via the Control 
   Center.

o two wallpaper bit maps are included, CS16.BMP and CS256.BMP for 16 and 256 color,
   respectively.
