b) INSTALLING/UPGRADING 489PC

Installation/upgrade of the 489PC software is accomplished as follows:

1.

Ensure that Windows is running on the local PC

2.

Insert the GE Multilin Products CD into your computer or point your web browser to the GE Multilin website at
www.GEindustrial.com/multilin. With Windows95/98, the Products CD will launch the welcome screen (see figure
below) automatically; with Windows 3.1, open the Products CD by opening the index.htm file in the CD root directory
with a web browser.

The Products CD is essentially a “snapshot” of the GE Multilin website at the date printed on the CD. As such, the proce-
dures for installation from the CD or the website are identical; however, to ensure that the newest version of 489PC is
installed, installation from the web is preferred.
