Hi!  Thanks for buying a REX!  Here's how to get going quickly--
 
1)  follow the hardware installation steps...  [[REX Hardware Installation]]
 
2)  power on your laptop, enter BASIC, and type
 
  CALL63012
 
and, at the prompt, decline to start REX Manager.  You will be returned to MENU.  Now, enter BASIC again, and type
 
  CALL63012
 
and, voila, TS-DOS is now active in your Model T, courtesy of Club100 and REX.  For T200 installs, use the basic command
 
  CALL61167,2
 
 
Download all the verified working ROM images for use with your REX here....(see the links on the main page...).
 
 
You will see a program called REXMGR.BA is now installed.  You can run that program any time to enter REX Manager, to load and run all the different ROMs you wish, and to allow you to manage your RAM backups.
 
To load files to/from REX, you MUST have a way of hosting files REX can access over the serial (RS232) port.
 
To host files for transfer to REX via REX Manager alternatives include
* [[NADSBox]], [[LaddieCon]] for Windows XP, 2000, Vista, Windows 7,
* [[DLPlus]] for Linux/OSX/BSD, [[Desklink]] for Win98 or DOS or
* [[DLPilot]] for PalmOS 3.x era devices (UNVERIFIED, but should work)
as the best [[TPDD]] devices for use with REX Manager.
