                        STARS.BAT

STARS is a batch program that uses the ATEST program
to play music through the audiometer. This shows how 
the ATEST program can be used to control the audiometer 
via a batch file. 

The Stars batch program does this by reading a data file 
to send commands to the audiometer through the ATEST 
program. Three data files are used. They are located in 
the DAT subdirectory. STARS.DAT contains the commands to 
operate ATEST automatically.SEQ0.DAT and SEQ2.DAT contain 
the music notes that will be sent to the audiometer. 
SEQ0 and SEQ2 are two seperate voices for the music.
Two other files SEQ1 and SEQ3 are also provided which 
contain alternate voice information for the song. 
You can try them out by editing the STARS.DAT file
and replacing the SEQ0 or SEQ2 filename in the command
sequence. 

The DAT files are standard MSDOS raw ASCII data files. 
Each line contains a single command followed by a CR/LF. 
For more information on the Sequecer, see the SEQOP.TXT 
and SEQCMDS.TXT files.

By default, the STARS program uses COM1. If you will be 
using COM2, you should add "2" to the command line;
"STARS 2".


The STARS program currently does not run with the Windows
version of ATEST. It will only work with the MSDOS 
version of the program.
