Installing the zebris Animal Analysis Suite
If your measuring system is delivered without PC/laptop, please install the application soft-
ware before connecting the measuring system to the computer. Please find information on
the installation in the user manual of the Animal Analysis Suite software.
Note
Please make absolutely sure that you have installed the zebris
software before connecting the Canid Gait sensor to the com-
puter using the USB cable.
If the Canid Gait sensor is connected without installing the software first, problems when
installing the device driver may occur and the system does not work.
Note
Should problems with the hardware driver of the Canid Gait platform
occur then disconnect the platform from the PC and restart it. Now
proceed with installing the Animal Analysis Suite again and reestab-
lish the USB connection.
Finally connect the Interface box and a free USB interface of your computer by using the
provided USB cable. Your measuring system is now ready for use. The control of a meas-
urement exclusively is carried out via the Animal Analysis Suite software. Therefore, please
carefully read the Animal Analysis Suite user manual.

ommendations for recording data".
