Software Installation
Important Hints
The Protocol Tester is ready for use upon delivery. Windows XPe and the
K1297-G20 Monitor application have already been installed.
Base software, application programs, updates, and upgrades are supplied
on CD-ROM, with a setup program and a readme.txt file located directly
under the root directory of the CD-ROM. You should read the readme file
before installing the software.
Device-specific software keys protect the CD-ROM software against
unauthorized access. To enable the software on your Protocol Tester, you
also receive an additional Software Keyfile / License Information Disk (key
disk).
Mixing Different Software Versions. Software products from different CD
versions are NOT designed to be mixed. The Setup program has a security
mechanism that will ensure that such version mixes cannot be installed:
After having selected your software products from this CD, you will be
warned about older software products in your existing configuration that
will be removed.
H If you confirm with Yes, the Setup program removes the old products
automatically and proceeds with the installation of the new products.
H If you want to keep an old product, cancel the Setup program, backup
the software as described below, and then restart the Setup program
again.
If you want to install software products from different CD versions, first
perform a complete backup of the existing software. This will ensure you
the best control about the software configuration on your system and
possible dependencies with other software packages you might have
installed.
