3.2 Installing and Running UDAS SYSCHECK

UDAS SYSCHECK provides an easy-to-use graphical interface for using and displaying the I/O capabilities of the UDAS unit.

System Requirements

UDAS SYSCHECK 1.0 only runs on Windows 98.

The installation requires approximately 1 Mbyte of free disk space.

Installing SYSCHECK

1.To install UDAS SYSCHECK, insert the UDAS-1001E Data Acquisition System CD into the CD ROM drive on the computer.

2.From the Windows 98 desktop, click Start, select Run and type:

<Use your CD drive letter>:\Syscheck\SETUP.EXE<ENTER>

3.Follow the software installation instructions in the dialogs (to stop the installation press ESC or click Cancel).

When the installation is complete, UDAS SYSYCHECK files are copied to a newly created folder on the computer’s hard drive. A new folder with shortcuts to the UDAS SYSCHECK program appears on the Start menu.

3.3 SYSCHECK Operation

When SYSCHECK runs, it queries the Universal Serial Bus (USB) to locate all of the UDAS units that are attached to the host. UDAS SYSCHECK reports the number of UDAS units detected and tracks the UDAS units by a unique serial number assigned to each unit. The serial number is provided on the outside of the unit, and internally in the UDAS unit’s firmware.

In the UDAS SYSCHECK window, the main menu contains three selection tabs, Unit Info, System Check, and Paced Analog Input as shown in FIGURE 3.1, Unit Info dialog .

In the Unit Info dialog, select one UDAS unit from the drop-down list. After making your selection, other features of the software allow you to display inputs to, or manipulate outputs from, the selected UDAS unit.
