1.   SETTING UP JAWS ON YOUR HARD DISK
 
     The set up of JAWS is managed by a setup program.  It is
not necessary to install your speech synthesizer before setting up
JAWS.  It, however, is absolutely necessary to set up Windows
before you set up JAWS.  If Windows has not been set up on your
computer, then follow the instructions provided by the Microsoft
Corporation for Windows setup.  At a minimum, JAWS requires
a 386 PC with at least 4 MB of system memory.
 
     There are two ways to set up JAWS software.  You can set
up JAWS from within Windows or from a DOS prompt.  The
process for doing a first time setup, an evaluation program setup,
or doing a program update is the same.  Simply use one of the
setup commands shown below.  The questions asked when doing
a program update will be fewer in number because the setup
program uses existing information from the previous program
setup.
 
Setting Up JAWS from within Windows
 
     After Windows starts, place your original "JAWS FOR
WINDOWS" program disk in your floppy drive.  From Program
Manager or File Manager, activate the Files menu by pressing
ALT+F.  Press R to activate the Run dialog.  At the command edit
window type either:  A:SETUP or B:SETUP, depending on the
disk drive you are using.
 
     You will then be asked a series of questions about your
computer and speech synthesizer before software is copied on to
your hard disk drive.  If this is a first time setup or an evaluation
program setup, then you must install an authorization key on
your hard disk drive after files have been copied so that JAWS
can function.  Information about moving authorization keys is
presented in the next section.
 
Installing JAWS from a DOS Prompt
 
     Place the diskette labeled "JAWS FOR WINDOWS" in your
floppy drive, and type one of these commands at a DOS prompt: 
A:SETUP or B:SETUP, then press ENTER.
 
     You will be asked a series of questions about your
computer and speech synthesizer before files are copied to your
hard disk drive.  If this is a first time setup or an evaluation
program setup, then you must install an authorization key on
your hard disk drive after the JAWS files have been copied so
that JAWS can function.  Information about moving authorization
keys is presented in the next section.
 
 
2.   MOVING AN AUTHORIZATION KEY
 
     An authorization key must be present on your hard disk
drive or on a floppy diskette in your diskette drive in order for
JAWS to work properly.  If an authorization key is not present,
then JAWS will stop talking 60 seconds after it is loaded.  An
Authorization Key is simply computer information that must be
present on your hard disk when JAWS for Windows starts.  
 
     Authorization keys are stored on your original "JAWS FOR
WINDOWS" diskette.  Use one of the procedures shown below to
move an authorization key from your diskette to your hard disk. 
IMPORTANT!  Your original "JAWS FOR WINDOWS" program
diskette must be in your floppy drive before you use either of the
commands shown below.  If you have not exited the JAWS setup
program, then please do so now by following the instructions on
your screen.
 
     If your JAWS program diskette is not in your A: drive and
your JAWS program was not set up on your C: drive, then you
must make the appropriate substitutions when you type one of
the commands.  The "A:" that appears in the command identifies
the location of your JFW program diskette, and the "C:" identifies
the location where your JAWS program files were copied.  You
will be asked to confirm the transfer of the authorization key.
 
     If you are working from a DOS prompt, then type the
following command and press ENTER.
 
     C:\JFW\EVMOVE A: C:
 
     If you are working from within Windows, then use the Files
menu of Program Manager or File Manager to activate the Run
dialog.  Type the following command and press ENTER.
 
     C:\JFW\WINMOVE A: C:
 
 
3.   STARTING JAWS
 
     Begin by removing any diskettes from your floppy drive
and rebooting your PC.  If you have not installed your speech
synthesizer, then you should do so now.  If your synthesizer uses
a software device driver, then this software must be installed
before you can use JAWS.  Please follow the installation
instructions that were included with your synthesizer to ensure
proper hardware and software installation.
 
Automatic Loading of JAWS
 
     If you set up JAWS from within Windows, then you had
the opportunity to have JAWS added to your Program Manager
Startup group.  If you indicated that you wanted JAWS to be
added to the Startup group, then JAWS starts whenever Windows
starts, and you do not need to do anything else to load JAWS.  If
you decide that you do not want to have JAWS loaded
automatically, then you can delete the JAWS icon from the
Startup group.
 
Manual Loading of JAWS from within Windows
 
     If you need to start JAWS from within Windows, then you
can start JAWS in one of several ways.  You can choose the
JAWS icon in the "JFW" program group of Program Manager, or
you can use the Windows Run dialog.  
     To start JAWS from the JFW group of Program Manager,
press CONTROL+TAB until the JFW group is activated, use your
arrow keys to highlight JAWS, and press ENTER to start JAWS.
 
     To start JAWS with the Run dialog, press ALT+F to
activate the Files menu, and then press R to display the Run
dialog.  In the command edit field, type C:\JFW\JFW.EXE and
press ENTER.
 
Manual Loading of JAWS from a DOS Prompt
 
     If you installed JAWS from a DOS prompt, then you will
need to type a command at a DOS prompt to load Windows and
JAWS.  A batch file for loading Windows and JAWS was installed
in your \JFW subdirectory for this purpose.  At a DOS prompt
type RUNJFW and then press ENTER.
 
     When JAWS is installed from a DOS prompt, the
installation program does not create a "JFW" program group in
Program Manager.  If you wish, you can create a "JFW" program
group and add a JAWS icon to the Program Manager Startup
group by following the instructions in Chapter 1 of the JAWS
Technical Reference.
 
 
4.   SUCCESSFUL LOADING OF JAWS
 
     If you heard words being spoken by your speech
synthesizer when any of the above methods were used to load
JAWS, then you are ready to learn about using JAWS.  Don't
worry if you did not understand the words that were spoken. 
There are several adjustments which may be needed to make the
speech of your synthesizer more intelligible.  At this point, our
goal is simply to have the JAWS software ready for use. 
 
     If JAWS starts and immediately speaks an error message
that tells you that an authorization key is not present, then you
must follow the procedure for installing an authorization key. 
JAWS will stop speaking shortly after the error message is
spoken.  Follow the steps in Appendix 2 to manually install an
authorization key on your hard disk drive.
 
     If JAWS does not speak any information or Windows does
not load, then please see the troubleshooting suggestions
presented in Appendix 3 of this booklet.
 
5.   REGISTERING JAWS
 
     Registration of JAWS software is done after you complete
program setup.  When you complete the registration process, you
confirm your eligibility to receive technical support from Henter-
Joyce, Inc.  Please register today!
 
To Register:
 
     After starting Windows, place the JAWS Registration Disk
in your floppy disk drive.  From Program Manager or File
Manager, activate the Files menu by pressing ALT+F.  Press R
to activate the Run dialog and type REGISTER in the command
edit window.  Press ENTER when you are done typing.
 
     Once you answer the questions asked by the registration
program, your answers will be copied to the JAWS Registration
Disk.  You must then send the diskette back to Henter-Joyce, Inc. 
A self addressed postage paid diskette mailer is included in your
JAWS software package for this purpose.  The diskette mailer is
made of cardboard and has the name "Henter-Joyce" printed in
Braille.
 
 
6.   CUSTOMER SUPPORT
 
     Our training tapes, manuals, and on-line help system
address the needs of computer users with a wide range of
experience.  If you are a new computer user, then you should plan
on using our training tapes to learn about JAWS and Windows.
 
     Our manuals are available in print and in the JAWS on-
line help system.  Chapter 1 of JAWS Basics describes how to use
JAWS.  Chapter 1 of our Windows Reference provides a solid
introduction to the Windows environment as experienced from the
perspective of a visually impaired computer user.  Our Technical
Reference is designed for those who wish to setup JAWS to
respond to the most challenging screen reading tasks within
Windows.  Our on-line help system contains the entire text from
these manuals in addition to information about program changes. 
Information about using the help system is presented on the
JAWS training tapes, and is also available from the opening
menu of the help system.  To start the JAWS on-line help system,
press INSERT+J to activate the JAWS application window, press
ALT+H to display the Help menu, then choose the "Contents"
menu item.
 
     Our manuals are also provided in text files.  The text files
for American English are in the \JFW\MANUALS\ENU
subdirectory.  Other subdirectories in \JFW\MANUALS contain
text files for other languages.  Names for these subdirectories
follow the standard abbreviations used by Microsoft Windows. 
 
     Our customer support staff provides technical assistance
for the set up of JAWS and other Henter-Joyce products.  We
cannot provide free customer support for products we do not
produce or sell.  Customer support for those who are using
evaluation copies of JAWS is limited to program setup.  On-going
customer support is only made available to those who purchase
and register JAWS.
 
     When you call us for customer support, please have your
JAWS serial number available and be ready to take notes.  To
display your JAWS serial number from within Windows, choose
"About" from the Help menu of the JAWS application window. 
Use of the JAWS application window is described in JAWS Basics
and on our training tapes.  Your JAWS serial number also may
be displayed on the front cover of your JAWS Basics manual.
 
     Our bulletin board service (BBS) is another source of
Henter-Joyce customer support.  You can use your computer and
a modem to download software programs, technical bulletins, and
JAWS program updates from our BBS.  Our BBS can be used 24
hours a day, seven days a week.  For information about using the
BBS, download the file "CALGUIDE.ZIP".
 
     Our CompuServe forum can be used to obtain product
information and software updates, and to communicate with
Henter-Joyce customer support staff through forum mail.  Join
the forum by typing "GO JAWS" at a prompt.  Our CompuServe
forum is part of the Windows Vendor H Forum.
 
 
7.   PROGRAM CHANGES
 
     We continue to develop JAWS for Windows, and as a
result, there may be new information which does not appear in
our printed documentation.  The "README.TXT" file, located on
your "JAWS FOR WINDOWS" program diskette and in the \JFW
subdirectory on your hard disk, may contain the most important
of these changes.  The "Changes" menu item of the JAWS Help
menu describes program advancements in an organized manner
so that you can learn about all program improvements in one
location.
 
 
Appendix 1:  COPYING JAWS PROGRAM DISKETTES
 
     You cannot use the DOS DISKCOPY command to make
backup copies of your original "JAWS FOR WINDOWS" program
disk.  Copies made with DISKCOPY will be corrupted because of
the presence of the JAWS authorization keys.  You can use the
DOS XCOPY program to make a backup copy, however the
authorization keys will not be copied.  A sample of the XCOPY
command is shown below.
 
     XCOPY A: A: /S
 
     This assumes you are using your "A" drive.  If you are
using a different floppy drive, then substitute the appropriate
disk drive letter.  The XCOPY program will prompt you to put in
the source disk and the destination disk at the appropriate time. 
You need to use a blank formatted diskette when making these
copies.
 
 
Appendix 2:  ABOUT AUTHORIZATION KEYS
 
     This section describes the process for moving authorization
keys and for replacing lost authorization keys.  JAWS program
files can be copied from one PC to another, but if an authorization
key is not present on the computer's hard disk drive or on a
floppy diskette in its floppy drive, then JAWS cannot run. 
     Purchasers of a single copy of JAWS software receive three
authorization keys.  Purchasers of an evaluation package receive
1 authorization key.
 
     If you back up your hard drive onto floppy disks or onto
tape, you will not be able to backup the authorization key. 
Therefore, you must move the authorization key back to your
original JAWS program diskette before you perform disk
maintenance activities such as reformatting.  If you erase an
authorization key, then JAWS will no longer function.  The use
of unfragmenting utility programs will not damage authorization
keys.
 
How Do You Move or Uninstall an Authorization Key?
 
     To move an authorization key from your hard disk, begin
by placing your original "JAWS FOR WINDOWS" program disk
in your floppy drive and then use one of the following two
commands.
 
     From a DOS prompt, type the following command and
     press ENTER.
 
          C:\JFW\EVMOVE C: A:
 
     From within Windows, use the File menu of Program
     Manager to activate the Run dialog, type the following
     command, and then press ENTER.
 
          C:\JFW\WINMOVE C: A:
 
     The parameters which follow the command "EVMOVE" or
"WINMOVE" are the same for both the DOS and Windows
commands.  The first parameter is the source disk drive from
which the authorization key is to be moved, and the second
parameter is the destination disk drive where the authorization
key is to be copied.  To move an authorization key from your
floppy disk to the hard disk, simply reverse the drive letters that
were shown above.  If your JAWS program diskette is not in your
"A:" floppy drive and your JFW program files were not set up on
your "C:" drive, then make the appropriate substitutions.
 
     In some situations, you might encounter an error message,
because you do not have any more authorization keys to copy or
there already was an authorization key on the hard drive.
 
How Can I Determine the Number of Authorization Keys That Are on
My JAWS
Program Diskette?
 
     Begin by placing your original "JAWS FOR WINDOWS"
program diskette in your floppy drive, then use the DOS
commands or the Windows commands shown below.
 
From a DOS Prompt
 
          Log onto the floppy drive that contains your original
     "JAWS FOR WINDOWS" diskette.  Next type DCHKINST
     and press ENTER.
 
From within Windows
 
          Activate File Manager, and log on to the floppy drive
     that contains your original "JAWS FOR WINDOWS"
     diskette.  Next press ALT+F to activate the Files menu of
     File Manager, and press R to choose the Run dialog.  Type
     CHKINST and press ENTER.
 
HOW CAN I OBTAIN A NEW AUTHORIZATION KEY?
 
     There, of course, will be unusual situations where an
authorization key is erased or lost, and a replacement is needed. 
Contact Henter-Joyce technical support for assistance in the
event this happens.
 
 
Appendix 3:  TROUBLESHOOTING
 
     If you set up Microsoft Windows and the Windows software
does not load when you reboot your PC, or when you type WIN at
a DOS prompt, then please consult your Microsoft Windows setup
manual or contact Microsoft technical support for assistance.
 
     If Windows loads as it should but JAWS does not speak,
then please follow these suggestions before calling us for
assistance.
 
 
     If you have a new speech synthesizer, then you should
recheck the tightness of synthesizer connections including
external speaker or headphone connections, and be sure the
volume level is set to a mid-range loudness setting.  If your
synthesizer installation instructions require the installation of a
synthesizer driver, then be sure it has been installed properly.  If
you installed an external synthesizer, then be sure you connected
it to the port that you indicated during setup and that its power
supply is connected and the synthesizer is turned on.  
 
     If your synthesizer had been working with a DOS screen
reader and does not work with JAWS for Windows, then begin
your troubleshooting by looking at your Windows Task List. 
When you press CONTROL+ESCAPE to activate the Task List,
you should find JAWS in the list of running applications.  If
JAWS is not in the list, then it has not been loaded.  Follow the
steps presented earlier in this booklet for "Starting JAWS".
 
     If you load JAWS and its name appears in the Task List,
and it does not speak, then you probably need to run the JAWS
setup program again.  If you did not choose the correct
synthesizer or port when doing the first installation, then JAWS
will be unable to communicate with your synthesizer.  Simply run
the setup program again and be sure you are choosing the correct
synthesizer.  Please note:  If you chose to not install a
synthesizer, then JAWS cannot speak until you provide the
proper "DLL" and "INI" files. Information about installing these
files is contained in the file "SYNTH01.TXT" which is located in
the \JFW\TECNOTES\ENU subdirectory. 
 
     We provide documentation on some speech synthesizers,
though the documentation that came with your synthesizer
should be your primary source of information.  You may find
some documentation for your synthesizer on the "Synthesizer
Drivers" disk.  Read the "READ.ME" file on the disk for
information about where to find the files you need. 
Documentation files specifically prepared by Henter-Joyce for
synthesizers is contained in the \JFW\TECNOTES\ENU
subdirectory.  The file "READLIST.TXT" describes the files in this
subdirectory.
