Installing Software

There are two software programs that work with Dimension.
• CatalystEX is the preprocessing software that controls
Dimension. If you have not already done so, you will need
to install the CatalystEX software on your PC. You will find
the CatalystEX software on the CD-ROM included in your
Startup Kit
• There is also 'controller' software loaded directly onto your
Dimension system from the factory. Because we do
occasionally make changes to this software, you will need
to verify that you have the latest version installed
"Verifying controller software version:" on page
controller software CD is included in your Startup Kit.
Install CatalystEX:
1. Insert the CatalystEX installation disc into your CD-ROM drive.
The installation menu automatically appears.
2. Click the Install button.
3. Follow the prompts to finish installing the software.
CatalystEX's installation setup allows you to change or confirm
the target installation directory. To install CatalystEX in a
directory other than the default, type the path and directory name
in the dialog box when prompted.
4. If you want to customize your installation, select the Custom
option. Custom options include the following:
• CatalystEX Files
• Training Files
Verifying controller software version:
1. Check the version displayed on the system keypad.
• From Idle, press Maintenance. The version
number will be listed in the top display window under
System Maintenance.
