computer. This should be done before proceeding with communications. 

When given the option to install IXXAT CAN drivers ensure these are selected, which is the default. 

Running the Instrument Explorer Software 

Having installed Instrument Explorer you can now run the application, which the rest of this chapter is based 
around. 
From the Windows ‘Start’ button, select 

Programs

, then 

Instrument Explorer

 or click on the shortcut on your
