Step 2. Software Installation on the PC Workstation


ControlWave Designer software will have to be installed on the PC if the ControlWave
EFM is to be utilized in an application other than that supported by the standard load.
This is accomplished by installing the ControlWave Designer Package from the Open
BSI CD ROM.

You must install the Open BSI Network Edition. For information on minimum system
requirements and more details of the installation, see the installation procedure in Chapter
2 of the Open BSI Utilities Manual (document # D5081).

If you have an older version of ControlWave Designer already installed:


Beginning with ControlWave Designer Version 3.3, the copy protection key (dongle) is
NOT required. Prior to installing ControlWave Designer 3.3 or newer, you MUST remove
the hardware dongle from the parallel port of your PC workstation. Otherwise, when you
subsequently start ControlWave Designer, it will operate only in ‘DEMO’ mode, and will
limit the available system resources.

IMPORTANT:

When you start ControlWave Designer, you will be reminded to register the
software. Unregistered software can only be used for a maximum of 30 days. For
more information on the registration process, see Chapter 2 of the Open BSI
Utilities Manual (document# D5081).
