To know before you start the installation
If the computer is purchased from Interacoustics, all the software / databases / drivers (e.g: OtoAccess®
Database, VisualEyes™, rotational chair drivers, PC Power Settings) are preinstalled. Either a laptop or
desktop computer can be selected for the VisualEyes™ system. It is recommended to use the computer
delivered by Interacoustics for the VisualEyes™ system as it has been tested to ensure compatibility.
NOTICE
1. You must have administrative rights to the computer on which you install the VisualEyes™ software.
2. Interacoustics will not guarantee the functionality of the system if any other software is installed on
the computer, with the exception of software delivered by Interacoustics and OtoAccess®.
3. Data from previous versions of VisualEyes™ can be reviewed and analyzed in VisualEyes™ 3
rd
generation. However, after being opened in VisualEyes™ 3
rd
generation, the data cannot be
reopened in previous versions of VisualEyes™. This is especially important to consider in a
server-client setup with multiple installations of VisualEyes™, where it is recommended to upgrade
all installations to the newest software.
