Chapter 2
– Installation and Setup
This chapter provides information on installing the operating software and setting up Mini-
Circuits’
Generators. System requirements for USB control are a computer (Pentium II or better) with support for
USB HID and a power source of 110-220V (a power cord matching the required power supply should be
selected when ordering the SSG unit).
For Ethernet control an Ethernet port with support for HTTP or Telnet, and a suitable power source are
needed.
To run the GUI program (described in chapter 3) a Windows operating system (either 32 or 64 bits) is also
needed.
