Dash Manager Software

The parallel port must be either an 8 bit bidirectional port or an ECP parallel
port. Single directional parallel ports will not work, these are found on some
older computers and some plug in cards.

Installing Dash Manager

From a CD-ROM

Place the CD-ROM into the CD drive of the pc.

A new window will appear. This can be navigated in the same way as a web
page.

If it does not appear, click on the Windows Start button and select Run. Type
‘D:\Iindex.htm’

Click on the button marked ‘Software Archive’.

Select the version of Dash Manager (or other software) that you wish to install
and click on the name.

When the dialog appears asking you to ‘Open’ or ‘Save’ the selected file,
choose ‘Open’ and then follow the setup program instructions.

From the Internet

Go to the MoTeC web site at

www.motec.com.au

and select Software

Updates | Current Release Software. Click on one of the Dash Manager links
to start the down load and choose to save the file to a location where it can be
easily located after downloading (such as the desktop). After downloading
double click on the file to start the installation process.

Mouse & Keyboard

The Dash Manager Software may be operated using the keyboard or a
mouse.

On many Notebook PCs the pointing device (mouse substitute) is difficult to
use and in many cases it is much easier and faster to use the keyboard. For
details on using the keyboard refer to the topic on Windows Keyboard Use
latter in this manual.
