Chapter
Utility software
You can check the status of this unit, and
change settings, by installing the utility
software on a computer connected to this
unit, and carrying out the operations on the
computer (see Chapter 5, "Using the Utility
Software" (page 38)).
To install the utility software, insert the
supplied CD-ROM (PDW-D1 PC Utility)
in the computer's CD-ROM drive, and copy
all of the following files from the
PC_Utility folder of the Win folder on the
CD-ROM to an appropriate folder on the
computer:
• PC_Utility.exe
• D1_API.dll
• FAM_API.dll
• PC_Utility.chm
For the operating environment required for the
utility software, see page 13.
Notes
• The utility software operates using the
FAM (file access mode) protocol, and
therefore requires the FAM driver to be
installed in the computer (see previous
item).
• Pins 1, 3, and 4 of switch S1401 on the
rear panel of the unit must be set to OFF
(the factory default setting is OFF) to
enable utility software settings. If any of
these pins are in the ON position, return
them to the OFF position.
