or 7 on a stand-alone PC with a minimum screen resolution of 800 x 600, a CD drive and 
an available USB 2.0 socket. 

13.1.  Downloading Micro 800 Link

 

PC Software from the Palintest

®

 website 

The Micro 800 Link

 

PC Software is available for download from www.palintest.com 

13.2.  Software Installation 

Unzip the downloaded  .ZIP file into a temporary directory or load the CD into the optical

. Browse the temporary directory and click on ‘

setup.exe

’. You will be given the usual 

Windows

® 

security  warnings.  Allow  the  software  to  install.  Once  installed,  Micro  800  Link 

will run automatically.  

 

To  communicate  with  the  Micro  800 

Meter,  two  further  software  ‘drivers’  need  to  be 

installed. These are  the '

Micro 800 Meter

' driver and a '

USB Serial Port

' driver. 

13.3.  Driver Installation 

Connect the Micro 800 

Meter to your PC using the USB cable provided. The ‘Found New 

Hardware’ wizard on your PC should activate automatically.

 

 
Different versions of Windows

® 

react to plugging USB devices in differently. Earlier versions 

will  give  you  the  option  to  '

locate  and  install  driver  software

'.  If  this  happens,  direct 

Windows

® 

to your temporary directory containing the unzipped download.  

 
If your version of Windows

® 

tries to search the Internet or 'Windows Update' for the drivers, 

stop the search and direct Windows

®  

to your temporary directory.  

 
If  Windows®  reports  a  problem  installing  the  drivers,  go  to  your  Windows®  Device 
Manager, locate the 'Micro 800  Meter' device  and update the driver forcing Windows®  to 
search your temporary directory for the driver. Repeat this process for the USB Serial Port.
