Installing DriverLINX Software and Documentation
Note:
Even if DriverLINX versions other than the PIO Series version are
already installed on your system, you must also install the PIO Series
DriverLINX version. In the process, some DriverLINX capabilities shared
by all boards may be upgraded (test utilities, for example).
This section discusses installation of drivers, interfaces, and
documentation. The component installation options provided by the
DriverLINX setup program are as follows:
●
Install Drivers
— This required component installs only the files you
need for configuring your hardware and running third-party
data-acquisition applications that require DriverLINX.
●
Install Interfaces
— This optional component installs the files and
example programs that you will need to develop custom applications
for DriverLINX using C/C++, Visual Basic, and Delphi.
●
Install Documentation
— This optional component installs
electronic documentation for DriverLINX that you can read, search,
and print using the Adobe Acrobat Reader.
●
Install Acrobat
— This optional component installs the Adobe
Acrobat Reader for the DriverLINX electronic documentation.
Install the DriverLINX software and board as follows:
1. Place the DriverLINX PIO Series CD-ROM in your drive and wait a
few seconds. On most systems, setup starts automatically. If not, run
the setup.exe file, found in the root directory of the CD-ROM.
A DriverLINX Browser Introduction screen
appears. Thereafter, the
DriverLINX CD Navigator screen appears automatically after
waiting a few seconds or after clicking
Next
