Setup and Installation
Note:
Install the DriverLINX software before installing the PIO-32
board. Otherwise, the device drivers will be more difficult to install.
Inventorying Required Installation Resources
Before installing DriverLINX and the board, do the following:
1. Inventory your PIO-32 board’s configuration settings.
2. Determine the resources your PIO-32 board requires.
3. Inventory your computer’s resources already allocated to other
installed devices.
4. Determine whether your computer has sufficient resources for your
PIO-32 board.
5. Determine whether your PIO-32 board can use your computer’s free
resources.
Note:
The DriverLINX Installation and Configuration Guide
, Section 1,
amplifies the inventory process in checklist items 1-5. (Ignore the rest of
the checklist items for now.) To display this manual from your
DriverLINX PIO Series CD-ROM, open the Windows Explorer, then
double click on
X:\Drvlinx4\Docs\Instconf.pdf
, where
X
= the letter of
the CD-ROM drive. Acrobat Reader must already be installed on the other
system. If necessary, you can first install Acrobat Reader directly from the
CD-ROM by double clicking
X:\Acrobat\setup.exe
.
