6.1
Installing the PC Configuration Utility
The PC Configuration application (Aft_II.exe) can be downloaded from the AfterBurner-2 web
interface (via the “download local app” link) or the Ovation Systems website (see Section 7,
page 35 ). It is a stand-alone .EXE which does not need a formal Windows installation. The
application is connected to AfterBurner-2 via either a USB or serial (RS232) lead.
USB Driver Installation:
1. Connect the USB cable supplied to the input marked “Config”.
2. Windows may ask to download new drivers. If you have an internet connection, use
the “Yes, this time only” and then “Install the software automatically (Recommended)”
3. You may be asked to install a second driver. If so, go through the same procedure.
4. If you do not have direct Internet access the drivers are available from the Ovation
website (see Section 7, page 35 ) which can then be transferred to the required PC
with instructions on how to install locally.
