First start
WAVECOM Decoder W74PC, W-PCI/e, W-CODE, W-CLOUD Manual V9.1.0
W-
CODE Device…
The first time the decoder application is started with the decoder card installed, the location of the decoder
devices must be set.
In the example above, the W-CODE software is looking for devices in a local computer and remote W-
CLOUD devices as defined in the “W-CLOUD Networking” section. The process should only take a few sec-
onds.
A
Virtual Audio Cable
and a
soundcard
are detected on the local computer. The entry shows the type of
product found as well as the serial number (generated from part of the active MAC address of the comput-
er network interface and a counter).
Important
: If you see
Error
in the device field, there is a problem with the soundcard driver or hard-
ware. Try to reinstall the correct driver.
Windows Vista or Windows 7
: Sound card inputs are only detected when a cable or microphone is
plugged in. If you connect a cable, restart the WAVECOM server, otherwise the devices will not be listed in
the WAVECOM software.
Each device is identified by a unique serial number. Thus the application is able to search for devices au-
tomatically; this functionality is available for local as well as remote computers - pressing the
Connect
button will start the process.
The selected entry is stored in the initialization file (*.INI file) for the card or device and no further entry
is necessary, when the application is restarted. The settings may be changed at any time.
The system can be used in a network configuration. This allows the system to be remotely controlled.
