Installing Software

There are two software programs that work with Dimension.

•

CatalystEX is the preprocessing software that controls 
Dimension. If you have not already done so, you will need 
to install the CatalystEX software on your PC. You will find 
the CatalystEX software on the CD-ROM included in your 
Startup Kit (

See “Install CatalystEX:” on page 22.

).

•

There is also ‘controller’ software loaded directly onto your 
Dimension system from the factory. Because we do 
occasionally make changes to this software, you will need 
to verify that you have the latest version installed (

See 

“Verifying controller software version:” on page 22.

). A 

controller software CD is included in your Startup Kit.

Install CatalystEX:

1.  Insert the CatalystEX installation disc into your CD-ROM drive.

The installation menu automatically appears.

2. Click the 

Install

 button. 

3. Follow the prompts to finish installing the software.

NOTE

CatalystEX’s installation setup allows you to change or confirm 
the target installation directory. To install CatalystEX in a 
directory other than the default, type the path and directory name 
in the dialog box when prompted.

4. If you want to customize your installation, select the 

Custom 

option. Custom options include the following:
•

CatalystEX Files

•

Training Files

Verifying controller software version:

1. Check the version displayed on the system keypad.

•

From 

Idle

, press 

Maintenance

. The version number will 

be listed in the top display window under 

Maintenance

.
