Installing Resscan Software - ResMed ResScan Manual

Installing ResScan Software

ResScan is available on CD, or can be downloaded from the dedicated URL. Your computer
should be running Windows XP SP2 or later, Windows Vista or Windows 7. If you are not using
one of these operating systems, you must install or upgrade to one of them before installing
ResScan. In addition, ResScan can be installed onto a Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server
2008 R2 for use in the terminal services environment.
Ensure that all other applications are closed before beginning ResScan installation.
1. Insert the ResScan CD into the CD drive of your computer. The installation process will start
automatically.
2. If installation does not start automatically, select Run from the Start menu and type in the
CD-ROM drive location (typically D:) and the name of the installation
program—D:\setup.exe—and click the OK button.
Note: If you upgraded ResScan your saved preferences, custom reports and patient files will
still be available after the upgrade.
3. The install program prompts you through the installation process. Follow the instructions on
the screen.
During installation, one of the dialogs asks you to choose a Complete or Custom installation.
Choose Custom if you want to change the installation directory from the default location;
otherwise, choose Complete.
During installation, a dialog will ask you whether you want to install the drivers for the
ResMed USB Adapter, ResScan Data Card Reader and the ResMed USB Direct Connection.
This is the preferred method of installing the drivers if they are not already installed on your
PC. Alternatively, these drivers can be installed through the Windows Start menu. To install,
go to Start > Programs > ResMed > ResScan > Drivers.
When the installation program has completed copying all the necessary files to your
computer, the Installation Completed dialog box is displayed.
4. Click the Finish button to close the Installation Completed dialog box.
5. Your computer may need to be restarted. If a dialog box advises you to restart, you must do
so in order to have access to the ResScan software.
You will be able to start ResScan using the ResScan icon on the desktop. If the icon is not
available, start ResScan using the Windows Start menu.
Notes:

If you changed the default Patient Group Location in an earlier installed version of ResScan,
after installing a newer version you will need to reset the location via the Patient Manager
window (see "Patient Group Location (see page 13)").

The Utilities menu takes you to the ResScan Help and the ResMed website.

Contact your ResMed representative for more information on how to obtain the software.
