Thermo Scientific
Software communication from a computer to the PAL System can be done one of two ways:
(Serial control, requiring a serial cable provided with the PAL System, crossed wiring)
• P/N 00950-01-00332 (cable length 3 m, standard cable)
–or–
• PN: 00950-01-00333 (cable length 6 m, optional cable length)
The software is provided with every PAL-xt System, with an enclosed CD-ROM.
The PAL Loader.exe file is embedded in a wizard software package. Starting the wizard
executes the installation software. If no changes are made to the proposed installation path,
the Loader version 2.1.x uses the following default installation path
software:
drive:\Program Files\PAL Loader
Note You can start the wizard for the installation software by double-clicking the icon of
the file Setup PALloader.exe.
You can use the second file, PALloader.msi, for the installation as well. Double-click the icon
of the file, right-click, and choose Install from the shortcut menu. This path for installation
requires an up-to-date Windows Installer. If the current version is not installed, a
corresponding error message appears.
