DriveTools32 and
Database Files

DriveTools32 uses a unique database file for each drive product so that you can
configure each drive individually. DriveTools32 ships with many of the database
files it will need (refer to Appendix A).

If you connect to a drive for which DriveTools32 does not have a database file,
you will be prompted to upload a new database. Click OK and DriveTools32
uploads a database which you can then configure.

Installing
DriveTools32
Software

To install the DriveTools32 software, you need to:

1.

Exit all Windows programs.

2.

Insert the DriveTools32 CD in your CD-ROM drive.

The program automatically displays the Setup Status window to let you
know that it is preparing the InstallShield wizard to help guide you through
the installation. Once the InstallShield wizard program is ready, you are
placed in the setup script.
