Chapter 3. Getting Started
This section of the manual provides a quick-start guide for your analyzer and software. If you need help
installing the application, please take a look at the
Installation .
3.1. Starting the Application
If you haven't already done so, install the software as described in Installation . Make sure the devices are
properly installed in or connected to the computer, have a matching power source and are turned on
(where applicable). Run the FireSpy application from the Windows Start menu -> Programs ->
FireDiagnostics Suite.
Device Selection
The device selection dialog will pop up, as shown in the picture below. The list on the left side shows the
serial numbers of the currently connected devices, as well as their IP addresses or DNS hostnames in
case they are connected by ethernet. All registered ethernet addresses are shown, including those of
disconnected devices.
Plug and play devices, such as USB and ethernet devices, can be connected or disconnected without
restarting the application or resetting the device. They will be automatically added or removed from the
list within a few seconds. Ethernet devices first have to be configured, as explained in the next section,
and their host address has to be manually added to the list.
The toolbar on the upper right side of the dialog can be used to modify the startup settings of the device.
Ethernet addresses can be added or removed using the + and - buttons on the left of the toolbar. Mil1394,
Normal or Symbol Recorder mode (when licensed) can be selected by expanding the Mode combo box on
the right. Left of the Mode combo box, a tool button exists for enabling or disabling the memory test that is
performed after the firmware is uploaded. This tool button is marked by a chip icon, and can be found
next to the Mil1394 tool button.
The right side of the device selection dialog has three possible configuration modes, which are explained
in further detail below. Apart from the default device information mode, the tool button with the wrench
icon can be clicked to enter the ethernet configuration mode and the tool button with the key icon enters
or exits the license configuration mode. Finally, the tool button with the question mark can be clicked to
open the manual relevant to the current mode. In the default (device information) mode, the device
manual of the selected device is opened. In the other two modes, either the ethernet configuration manual
or the license configuration manual will be opened.
In some cases, for instance when starting the Monitor application directly, multiple analyzers can be
selected at once. Sometimes it is also possible to start the application without selecting any devices (note
that clicking on a selected item de-selects it). In that case, you can still select Mil1394 mode, for instance
when you wish to use Mil1394 functionality in the Scriptor while no analyzer is available.
