The tutorial exercises assume that you have already installed MATLAB and know something about how to use it. They also assume that you know how to use Microsoft Windows, and that you have installed and are somewhat familiar with Microsoft EXCEL.
Here's how to install DIGITIZER.
STEP1: Copy ONE of the program folders from the distribution CD to your hard disk. The choice depends on which version of Windows and which version of MATLAB you are using.
For Windows 98 and MATLAB 6.1, copy folder dig100w98m61 from CD to hard disk.
For Windows 98 and MATLAB 6.5, copy folder dig100w98m65 from CD to hard disk.
For Windows 2000 and MATLAB 6.1, copy folder dig100w2000m61 from CD to hard disk.
For Windows 2000 and MATLAB 6.5, copy folder dig100w2000m65 from CD to hard disk.
STEP 2: Change the name of the resulting hard disk folder to dig100.
STEP 3: Copy the tutorial folder tut100 from the distribution CD to hard disk.
STEP 4: IMPORTANT: Change the disk access properties of both folders and all the files in them to READ/WRITE access, by un-checking their "Read-only" Attributes. Here's how to do this:
In My Computer or Windows Explorer, select the file(s) or folder(s) whose disk access property(s) you want to change.
(You can select multiple files or folders by using the shift key in the customary Windows manner: click on the first file in the contiguous list of files or folders to be selected; then hold down the shift key and click on the last file in the contiguous list of files or folders to be selected.)
On the File menu, click Properties.
(You can also right-click a folder or file on your desktop, and then click Properties.)
Un-check the "Read-only" checkbox in the Properties dialog box and click OK.
The tutorials below assume that you have copied the folders to hard drive D.
You can change the folder names if you wish, but don't change any file names.
