2.7 Software Installation

Once the wiring is completed, the software on the host computer must be installed. Insert the

LinkNet compact disk (CD) in the computers CD-ROM drive. If “Auto Insert Notification” is enabled
for the drive (it is by default), then the LinkNet installation program will automatically start when the
CD is inserted. If for some reason “Auto Insert Notification” is not enabled, hit the “Start” button on the
desktop, select “Run...” and when prompted for the name of the program to run type “D:\SETUP”
(without the quotes) and hit the “OK” button. Note that the “D” in “D:\SETUP” should be the drive
letter of your CD-ROM drive.

The installation program will ask where to put the LinkNet files. It is strongly recommended that the

default directory be accepted. Program and data files will then be installed.

The installation program will create a new program group called “LinkNet” and will put a LinkNet

icon on the windows desktop. To start LinkNet, double click on the icon on the desktop, or select it
from the programs menu by hitting the Windows “Start” button, then “Programs”, then the “LinkNet”
group, and then the “LinkNet” selection in that group.
