Chapter 2 Installation
2.1 Software Installation
We recommend you to install the driver before you install the PCI-1241/
42 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 com-
panion CD-ROM that is shipped with your DAS card package. Please fol-
low 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 auto-play function enabled on your system. When the Setup Program
is launched, you’ll see the following Startup Screen. Then just follow the
installation instructions step by step to complete your DLL driver setup.
The Setup program can detect your operating system automatically and
install proper files into the system accordingly.

computer, use Windows Explorer or Windows

companion CD-ROM.
