Autoplay/Autorun
Since the introduction of Windows XP, the term Autoplay (sometimes also
called Autorun) has come to be associated with the feature which assists users
in selecting appropriate actions when new media and devices are detected.
The Autoplay/Autorun feature is turned off in the instrument, by default, for
heightened security, unless the Administrator account is running.
If you wish to re-enable Autoplay/Autorun, you may use the Auto Play function
in the Control Panel. However, be aware that if you do this you may be more
subject to virus attack from portable media such as USB flash drives.
