The software FM 302 Control is delivered with a ClickOnce installation
routine. To install the software the setup.exe has to be executed which
can be found at the CD in the folder D:\FM 302 Control\ and there in
the subfolder with the current version. The installation runs automatically
and starts FM 302 Control afterwards.
To run the software the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 is necessary. If that
is not available at the computer, it is automatically installed by the
installation routine too.
During installation an entry in the start menu is created so for later use the
software can be started via Start → program → Projekt Elektronik GmbH →
FM 302 Control.
