2.4 Device Setup & Configuration
The
Advantech Device Manager
program is a utility that allows you to
set up, configure and test your device, and later stores your settings on
the system registry. These settings will be used when you call the APIs
of Advantech Device Drivers.
Setting Up the Device
Step 1:
To install the I/O device for your card, you must first run the
Device Manager
program (by accessing
Start/Programs/
Advantech Device Drivers V1.5).
Step 2:
You can then view the device(s) already installed on your
system (if any) on the
Installed Devices
list box. Since you
haven’t installed any device yet, you might see a blank list such
as the one below (Fig. 2-4).
