Installing application software and drivers
Installing the TestPoint support
It is anticipated that, in the future, TestPoint will implicitly support the KPCI-3160 board with-
out installing additional drivers. Check with the following concerning current availability of
TestPoint support for the KPCI-3160:
•
The TestPoint technical support page of the Keithley web site (www.keithley.com).
•
The TestPoint manufacturer, Capital Equipment Corporation (CEC).
Installing the LabVIEW software and driver
If you plan to use only run-time LabVIEW applications with your KPCI-3160 board, you need
not install a special driver. LabVIEW run-time support is automatically installed when you
install and configure DriverLINX.
However, if you plan to develop custom applications using the LabVIEW Integrated Develop-
ment Environment, you must install the DriverLINX Virtual Instruments (VIs). These VIs are
provided on your DriverLINX CD-ROM but do not install automatically when you install Driv-
erLINX and your board. You must first install the LabVIEW application program and Driver-
LINX, then install the DriverLINX VIs.
If you do not install the VIs during the same session in which you install DriverLINX (refer to
your Read this first document), you may install them later as follows:
1. Start setup.exe on the DriverLINX CD-ROM. The DriverLINX Browser introduction screen
appears.
2. Click Next on the DriverLINX Browser introduction screen (or wait a few seconds). The
DriverLINX CD Navigator screen appears.
3. On the DriverLINX CD Navigator screen, click Install DriverLINX. An Install These
DriverLINX Components screen appears.
4. On the Install These DriverLINX Components screen, click LabVIEW™ Support.
5. Follow the series of on-screen instructions that appear.
Installing the KPCI-3160 board
This subsection helps you to do the following:
•
Prepare for the board installation.
•
Physically install the board.
CAUTION
Ensure that the computer is turned OFF before installing or remov-
ing a board. Installing or removing a board while power is ON can
damage your computer, the board, or both.
Handle the board in a static-controlled workstation; wear a
grounded wrist strap. Discharge static voltage differences between
the wrapped board and the handling environment before removing
the board from its protective wrapper. Failure to discharge static
electricity before and during handling may damage semiconductor
circuits on the board.
Handle the board using the mounting bracket. Do not touch the cir-
cuit traces or connector contacts when handling the board.
