Installing the miniLAB 1008 

Installing SoftWIRE Graphical Programming 

SoftWIRE 4.2 for Visual Studio .NET is required to use MCC DAQ Components for 
.NET. You must install Visual Studio .NET before you install SoftWIRE for Visual 
Studio .NET.  

If you are interested in exploring graphical programming, but do not own a copy of 
Visual Studio, you can purchase a copy of Visual Basic .NET for under $99. To learn 
where, and to learn more about SoftWIRE Graphical Programming, call our Technical 
Sales Engineers at 508-946-5100 x2. 

SoftWIRE 3.1 for Visual Basic® 6.0 is required to use MCC DAQ Controls for VB6. 
You must install Visual Basic 6.0 before you install SoftWIRE 3.1 for Visual Basic 6. 

To install SoftWIRE 4.2 for VS .NET or SoftWIRE 3.1 for VB6, follow the procedure 
below. 

1.

 

Click on the 

SoftWIRE

 button. A 

SoftWIRE Installation

 dialog opens. 

 

2.

 

3.

 

Click to select the SoftWIRE version to install, and then click on the 

Install 

button. 

Follow the installation instructions as prompted.  

Installing SoftWIRE MCC DAQ Components or Controls 

You must install SoftWIRE for Visual Studio .NET before you install SoftWIRE MCC 
DAQ Components for .NET. You must install SoftWIRE 3.1 for Visual Basic 6.0 before 
you install SoftWIRE MCC DAQ Controls for VB 6. Refer to "

Installing SoftWIRE 

Graphical Programming

" on page 2-8 for instructions. 

You must install the Universal Library before you install either SoftWIRE MCC DAQ 
Components for .NET or SoftWIRE MCC DAQ Controls for VB6. Refer to "Installing 
InstaCal, TracerDAQ, and the Universal Library" on page 2-6 for instructions.
