Installing the Software and

the Adapter

This chapter covers the software setup for the PCAN-USB Hub
under Windows and the connection of the hub to the computer.
Drivers for the CAN interface as well as the RS-232 interfaces are
installed.

Setup the driver for the CAN interface before connecting the PCAN-
USB Hub to the computer for the first time.

Do the following to install the driver for the CAN interface:

1. Make sure that you are logged in as user with administrator

privileges (not needed for normal use of the PCAN-USB Hub
later on).

2. Insert the supplied DVD into the appropriate drive of the

computer. Usually a navigation program appears a few
moments later. If not, start the file Intro.exe from the root
directory of the DVD.

3. On the page English > Drivers activate the entry PCAN-USB.

4. Click on Install now. The setup program for the driver is

executed.

5. Follow the instructions of the setup program.

Tip: If you don't want to install the CAN monitor PCAN-View for
Windows onto hard disk together with the driver, you have the
option to start the program later directly from DVD without
prior installation.
