On the Parallels menu bar, click Actions, select 'Run Parallels Compressor' from the drop down
menu and click OK on the drop down dialog box. The Parallels Compressor timer window
appears and starts to count down. Do not click anything on this timer window. Just wait for
the timer to expire and allow the Parallels compressor to start up in automatic mode. During
the compression procedure, Windows will restart automatically and display a dialog box
stating that Windows has finished installing a new devices and will ask if you want to restart
your computer now. Click the No button in response to this dialog box to allow the
compression utility to complete its job without interruption. The compression utility will run
for 10 to 15 minutes and a drop down dialog box will notify you when the process is done. Click the OK button to close this dialog box and then click the Finish button to complete the
compression procedure.
Shut down Windows by clicking the Windows Start button, click Shut Down, Select Shut
down from the list box and then click OK. It's a good idea to do another backup at this
point. Create a new backup folder named 'Windows 2 after compression' and copy the
~/Documents/Parallels/Microsoft Windows folder into this backup folder.
The next step is to add a serial port to the Parallels Windows virtual machine configuration. To do this, start Parallels Desktop, select Microsoft Windows from the list of virtual machines
and click the Select button. On the Parallels Desktop menu bar, click Edit, select Virtual
Machine from the drop down menu and click the Yes button on the drop down dialog box. The Configuration Editor window will be displayed.
Click the Add button in the Configuration Editor, select Serial Port from the Available
Hardware list and click the Next button. Select 'Use a socket' and click the Next button. The
following window shows the properties of the serial port. The default name of the serial port
is /tmp/serial and this does not need to be be changed. Set the socket role to 'Server',
check the 'Connect the Serial Port at startup' checkbox and click the Finish button to complete
the setup of the serial port. Click the OK button to close the Configuration Editor and then
quit the Parallels Desktop application.
The last thing to do before installing the Airmail software is to get the Keyspan USB to Serial
Adapter driver connected to the serial port. To do this, plug the Keyspan adapter into an
available USB port. If the Mac OS X Keyspan driver is working properly, the green LED on
the adapter should be blinking on and off.
Start the SerialClient application and it will display a serial port configuration window. The
Stream Path field will have the default name of the serial port in it and must be the same as
the name given to the serial port when it was added to the Parallels virtual machine with the
Configuration Editor. Set the Baud Rate to 57600 and the Flow Control to Hardware
(RTS/CTS).
