2.2 Driver Installation
We recommend you to install the driver before you install the
PCI-1240/PCI-1240U card into your system, since this will guarantee
a smooth installation process.
The 32-bit DLL driver Setup program for the card is included on the
companion CD-ROM that is shipped with your DAS card package. Please
follow the steps below to install the driver software:
Step 1: Insert the companion CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive.
Step 2: The Setup program will be launched automatically if you have
the autoplay function enabled on your system. When the Setup
Program is launched, you’ll see the following Setup Screen.
Whenever you handle the card, grasp it only by
its edges. DO NOT TOUCH the exposed metal
pins of the connector or the electronic compo-
nents.
Note Keep the antistatic bag for future use. You might
need the original bag to store the card if you
have to remove the card from PC or transport it
elsewhere.
Note If the autoplay function is not enabled on your
computer, use Windows Explorer or Windows
Run command to execute SETUP.EXE on the
companion CD-ROM.
