This file covers the following topics:

- What's New
- Software Compatibility Issues
- Additional Notes
- Installation Issues
- What's In the Toolkit

- Support Numbers


What's New
----------
Windows resource files are not required for AMS 13.0

The following items have been added to the toolkit:

- The MAP File Maker and MAP File Tester utility has been added to assist in the creation of MAP files
- Procedure updated for creating a .mrg file
- Added information on .fhx, .alm, .alert files.


Software Compatibility Issues
-----------------------------
This toolkit is for use with AMS 13 or higher only.  Please
Use the AMS Device Manager tool kit 10.x for version 10.0 to 12.5 of AMS Device Manager


AMS Device Manager 13.0 support HCF tokenizers version 8.x

This toolkit supports all versions of Microsoft Windows 
supported by AMS Device Manager.  Please refer to the AMS Device Manager Installation Guide 
for a list of the versions supported.


Additional Notes
----------------
In order to fully utilize the software provided in this 
toolkit, you should have AMS Device Manager version 13.0 or higher.

Further note that the tools and techniques provided in this toolkit may alter the 
functionality of AMS, and as such, should only be used on 
a development system running AMS and NOT on a production 
system.

This toolkit provides the information and sample files 
you need in order to create a Device Installation Kit for your 
device.  

AMS is capable of simulating the basic functions of 
any device for which a device description has been 
installed.  The use of AMS under simulation can be
helpful in developing the AMS interface for a device.
Instructions for simulating devices are available in
the included Developer's Guide.

Installation Issues
-------------------
To install the toolkit sample files, double click the zip file and extract to <drive>:\AMSTK13. To use MapFileTester, the MapFileTester.dll must be moved to <drive>:\AMS\bin.

Note:  Adobe Acrobat will not be installed with this 
installation.  It is available on the Adobe website.

What's in the Toolkit
---------------------
The AMS Toolkit for HARTŪ Device Developers contains
the sample files you need in order to integrate
your device into AMS Device Manager. The software is organized as follows:
 
AMSTk13
	The default root directory where the
	toolkit is loaded.

AMSTk13\MapFiles\MapFile_Install_Instructions.txt
	A file to help you load the appropriate Map File 
	Tools for your targeted versions of AMS Device Manager.

AMSTk13\MapFiles\Map File Manual & Spec.pdf
	Describes the Map File Template which 
	Helps device developers create map files.

AMSTk13\MapFiles\MapFileTester
	The set of files you need to use MapFile Maker
       And Map File Tester on your targeted version of AMS Device
       Manager.


AMSTk13\src\devices\hrtsim00.dat
	The simulator file you will use to 
	specify the devices you wish AMS to 
	simulate 

AMSTk13\src\devices\ddinstal.ini
	The sample installation script you will
	need when you are ready to create an
	Installation Kit for your device.

AMSTk13\src\devices\000026\0006
	The directory contains the tokenized output
	samples for the 3051cr23 device, the 
	DLL for the 3051cr23, The 3051cr23 is an example
	of a simple, single mode device.  Note 
	that the tokenizer output files are of
	the form device revision-dd revision. The
	actual binary output from the tokenizer for
	this device is the 0203.fms file.  The
	symbol file output for this file is 
	0203.sym.  The table file for this device 
	is 3051cr23.tbl.  The MAP file for this
        device is 0203.map.
AMSTk13\src\devices\00002e\0015
	The directory contains the tokenized output
	samples for the 3081C (2e150101) device, 
	the DLL for the 3081C,  The 3051cr23 is an example
	of a complex, multi-mode, mapable dynamic
	variables device.  The MAP file for this 
        device is 0101.map.

AMSTk13\src\devices\0000fc\00fc
	The directory contains the tokenized output
	samples for the dproto device, the 
	DLL for the dproto.In addition to
	the tokenizer files, also included here 
	is an empty merge file, dproto.mrg.  This
	file can be used initially in Installation 
	Kit testing.  Creation of a full merge file,
	as described in the toolkit documentation,
	is required to complete the Installation
	Kit, however.  A blank MAP file template has
        been included in this directory, called 
        0101.map.
