CDU/Convert Installation
The CD accompanying this manual contains the Windows applications
CDU
(Control and Display
Unit) and Convert. They are installed via a standard Install Shield set-up application. Also included on
the CD is sample source code, to aid development of software for interfacing with the receiver, and
product documentation.
These applications utilize a database in their operations so the necessary components of the Borland
Database Engine (BDE) are installed as well as the necessary database tables and an alias for the
database. The install set-up application does all this automatically so you have only to select where
you would like the applications installed on your PC. It is strongly recommended that you close all
applications before installing
CDU
and Convert. You must close any applications that may be using
the BDE before installing. The install set-up modifies the BDE configuration so that it can recognize
the new
CDU
and Convert.
The software operates from your PC’s hard drive. You will need to install the software from the CD
supplied by NovAtel or from our Web site:
1.
Start Microsoft Windows.
2.

d.

3.
