CE790 GUI Operation

Overview

A CE790 installation can be managed via a Graphical User Interface (GUI) on 
systems that are running Windows. In order to use this management utility, two 
separate items of software must be installed on all of the PCs in your 
installation – WinPcap and the CE790 AP. This procedure is detailed in the 
following sections.

Before You Begin

WinPcap

The CE790 GUI is a WinPcap-based application. WinPcap is the industry-
standard tool for link-layer network access in Windows environments. For 
further information, go to 

www.winpcap.org

.

To install WinPcap on your PC, do the following:

1. Download the WinPcap executable file from the website, and run it.

2. Follow the instructions on the screen. The installation applet will 

automatically detect the operating system and install the correct drivers

3. WinPcap-based applications are now ready to work. Download the CE790 

AP as below.

CE790 AP

To download the WinPcap-based CE790 AP in order to use the Browser GUI 
to manage your CE790 installation, do the following:
