Installing Application Software

Installing a license key for the selected application can be done automatically using a USB
memory device. To do this, you copy the license file to the USB memory device, at the root level.
Follow the instructions that come with your software installation kit.

Installing a license key can also be done manually using the built-in license management
application, which may be found via the instrument front panel keys at System, Licensing. . . , or
on-disk at:

C:\Programming Files\Agilent\Licensing

You can also use these procedures to reinstall a license key that has been accidentally deleted, or
lost due to a memory failure.

Updating Measurement Application Software

All the software applications were loaded at the time of original instrument manufacture. It is a
good idea to regularly update your software with the latest available version. This helps to ensure
that you receive any improvements and expanded functionality.

Because the software was loaded at the initial purchase, further additional measurement
applications may now be available. If the application you are interested in licensing is not
available, you will need to do a software update. (To display a list of installed applications, press
System

, Show, System.)

Check the appropriate page of the Agilent web site for the latest available software versions,
according to the name of your instrument, as follows:

http://www.agilent.com/find/pxa_software

http://www.agilent.com/find/mxa_software

http://www.agilent.com/find/exa_software

You can load the updated software package into the analyzer from a USB drive, or directly from
the internet. An automatic loading program is included with the files.
