Neo8000Center Usage
CHAPTER
The Neo8000Center software allows you to access and control the NEO 8000 Library from
a Windows-based PC. It supports most of the same commands and controls that are
available from the GUI touch screen on the front of the library. It is also the only way to
partition a library.
The Neo8000Center software must be installed on the PC.

Installing Neo8000Center on a Host

instructions on that CD for installing the software.
Neo8000Center is designed to run on a PC using Windows 95, 98, 2000, NT 4.0, XP,
Server 2003, or Server 2008.
