11. To continue with the installation of the USB drivers from TI (serial number < 5251200), follow these steps:
a) If this is your first installation, the recorder VCP Installer will launch and run. Accept the license
agreement and continue.
Note:
If you have previously installed the TI USB driver, the installer will uninstall the old driver. You will
then have to install the driver manually. To install the driver manually run setup.exe, which is
located on the release CD in the Ti-Usb_driver folder.
b) Once the software has been installed, turn the recorder on and plug the USB cable into the unit and
your PC.
c)
The “Found New Hardware Wizard” will launch (as shown in step 10e above).
d)
Make sure the installation CD is still in the CD drive and select the “Yes, now and every time I
connect a device” option. Then click the Next> button.
e)
Select the “Install the software automatically (Recommended)” option and click the Next> button.
f) The Wizard will search for the device
– depending on your system this may take some time. Once the
driver is found you will get the following warning message:
g) Click the Continue Anyway button. When you are done click the Finish button to complete the
installation.
Note: Although the recorder connects via the USB port, the PC sees it as a virtual
COM port. You can check the successful installation by right clicking on the My
Computer icon in the Start menu and selecting Properties. Then choose the Hardware tab and click the
Device Manager button. You should see two instances of the recorder device as shown below, one as
“Multi-port serial adapters” and again under Ports (COM & LPT) as USB-recorder (COMx). For successful
operation “x” should be 6 or less.
Tip: Make sure you have no other programs running that take
control of the serial ports in the background (like some Hotsync
programs), as these will prevent the Navigator Software from
seeing the COM port.
Navigator Software is now installed in Demo mode. If you have purchased an upgrade license, you may activate
it by running the software and selecting Setup - Features - Update on the toolbar and typing the license number
provided.
