Mapping a Drive and Transferring the Software File from your PC to the Analyzer

Microsoft Networking allows you to share a folder on your PC as a network drive

that you can then access across your local network from your Analyzer, thus

allowing you to copy the software file from your PC to the Analyzer.

You may need to first go to the Network Properties on your Analyzer

(right-click on the Desktop Network Neighborhood and select

Properties), highlight Clients for Microsoft Networking and select

Properties, and setup Logon Validation for your network domain.

Then you will need to restart the Analyzer and log into your network

domain.

The file sharing procedure is slightly different for each Windows operating

system. Generally, you will need to perform the following procedure on your PC:

1. On your PC, determine the directory to be shared (default is C:\temp) that

contains the software file OPVWNA-V2.EXE. From Windows Explorer, set

the folder to be shared by right-clicking on the folder name and selecting

the Sharing tab. Select the Shared As: radio button and enter a Share

Name.

You don't actually have to copy the software file to the PC hard disk

before transferring it to the Analyzer. You can map the CD-ROM

drive and copy the file directly from the OptiView Wireless Network

Analyzer CD to the Analyzer.

2. Connect the Analyzer to the same local network as the PC.

3. On the Analyzer, open Windows Explorer.

4. Select Tools | Map Network Drive.

5. In the Path field, enter the IP address of the PC followed by the Share

Name (e.g. \\010.010.010.012\sharename .) Click OK when done.

6. Copy the file OPVWNA-V2.EXE from your PC to the Analyzer

(recommended is d:\temp.)

7. You are now ready to Install the Software on the Analyzer.
