Successful termination of .NET framework V1.1 setup 

3.4.2.2  Installing the Microsoft .NET Framework V2.0 

 

MK8000 software also requires the support of the Microsoft .NET V2.0 framework 
library (note that V2.0 does not replace V1.1, which remains required). As with 
other Microsoft libraries, this package is distributed free of charge and can be eas-
ily installed selecting the corresponding option in the 

Pre-requisites

 menu. 

During the setup procedure started from the setup page (Fig. 5), follow the installa-
tion wizard (Fig. 8), confirm you accept the terms of the license agreement (Fig. 9), 
and wait for the procedure to complete (Fig. 10).
