The Setup program then starts the Super32 Network Addition program which enables you to
add Micro-DCI network instruments to your system. This is a good time to add Micro-
DCI networks to your system since you need to reboot your PC after installing the Micro-Tools
software and after you install the Micro-DCI networks.

The first Network Wizard window lets you select whether you are adding a network that
is connected to your system through a supervisor board (SUP) or though a COM port (COM).
