Driver Information via the Device Manager Program
The Device Manager program provides a convenient method of collecting information about the
installed Xtium2-CL MX4. System information such as operating system, computer CPU, system
memory, PCI configuration space, plus Xtium2-CL MX4
firmware information is displayed or written
to a text file (default file name
–
BoardInfo.txt). Note that this program also manually uploads
firmware to the Xtium2-CL MX4 (described elsewhere in this manual).
Execute the program via the Windows Start Menu shortcut
