miniWIPER is battery powered and requires 2 AA size expendable or rechargable batteries. Voltage 
requirement is 3.6 VDC. Maximum current demand is 225 mA. 

CHAPTER 2: SOFTWARE 

2.1 Overview and Software Installation 

Software is supplied on CD or in a .

zip file. Copy or unzip to any folder on your computer’s hard 

drive. The software will contain these files: 

• 

miniWIPERControl.jar allows you to see the state of the wiper as well as set the wipe 
interval. 

• 

miniWIPERPlot.jar allows you to see plots of recorded wipe parameters. 

• 

miniWIPERConcatenate.jar gathers all daily files into one CAT.txt file. 

• 

Manual.pdf is this manual. 

These files are located on the root directory of the miniWIPER. This appears as a Local Disk when 
miniWIPER is connected to a Windows HOSTcomputer. 

PME suggests you leave these programs where they are on the miniWIPER, but you may copy them 
to any folder on your HOST computer's hard drive and operate them from this location. 

miniWIPERControl, miniWIPERPlot, and miniWIPERConcatenate are Java language programs that 
require the HOSTcomputer to have the Java Runtime Engine V1.7 (JRE) or later installed. This 
engine is commonly required for internet applications and will likely already be installed on the 
HOSTcomputer. The JRE can be downloaded via internet from 

http://www.java.com/en/download/windows_xpi.jsp 

At this time miniWIPER is supported on Windows operating systems but may also operate on 
Macintosh and perhaps Linux.
