4  Hardware installation 

You need to install your Kvaser Leaf once (but only once) for 

each

 USB port you want to use 

on your computer. This is a design feature of Windows. 
 

 

Drivers installed? 

Install the Kvaser Leaf drivers if you have not already done so. 

 

Plug  in  the  hardware.

  Plug  in  your  Kvaser  Leaf

 

into  a  free  USB  port  on  your  PC 

(the computer does not need to be turned off).  

 

The  Welcome  dialog. 

In  a  few  seconds  the  dialog  in  Figure  7  will  pop  up.  You  do 

not need to insert the Kvaser CD although the dialog says  you should. Instead, just 
select  "Install  the  software  automatically",  and  then  press  the  "Next"  button.   

Note

You must have Administrator's rights to do this, or the operation will fail. In Windows 
XP,  Service  Pack  2  or  later,  you  will  be  asked  if  you  want  to  connect  to  Windows 
Update.  Here  you  should  answer  "No,  not  this  time"  and  then  press  the  "Next" 
button. Connecting to Windows Update is harmless but can take a long time.
