Installation, A Pictorial Overview

Step 1 – Install Software

IMPORTANT: Software must be installed before installing hardware.

1.Remove previous version Daq drivers, if present.

You can do this through Microsoft’s Add/Remove Programs feature.

2.Place the Data Acquisition CD into the CD-ROM drive. Wait for PC to auto-run the CD. This may take a few moments, depending on your PC. If the CD does not auto-run, use the Desktop’s Start/Run/Browse feature and run the Setup.exe file.
