Upgrading Sapera or any Board Driver
When installing a new version of Sapera or a DALSA acquisition board driver in a computer with a
previous installation, the current version
must be un-installed first. Upgrade scenarios are described
below.
Board Driver Upgrade Only
Minor upgrades to acquisition board drivers are typically distributed as ZIP files available in the DALSA
web site
http://www.imaging.com/downloads . Board driver revisions are also available on the next
release of the Sapera CD-ROM.
Often minor board driver upgrades do not require a new revision of Sapera. To confirm that the current
Sapera version will work with the new board driver:
•
Check the new board driver ReadMe.txt file before installing, for information on the minimum
Sapera version required.
•
If the ReadMe.txt file does not specify the Sapera version, contact DALSA Technical Support
(see
" Technical Support " on page 118 ).
To upgrade the board driver only:
•
Logon the computer as an administrator or with an account that has administrator privileges.
•
From the Windows start menu select Start • Programs • DALSA • X64 Xcelera-CL PX4
Driver • Modify-Repair-Remove .
•
Click on Remove .
•
When the driver un-install is complete, reboot the computer.
•
Logon the computer as an administrator again.
