2 Installation of the ADwin CDROM

Please, connect your ADwin system with your PC only if told to do so.
The same applies for the connection of the inputs and outputs, in order to avoid
damages at the ADwin system or at your device.
System requirements:
– Windows operating systems 9x, ME, NT, 2000, XP.
The latest Windows update should be installed.
– PC local RAM of at least 16MB RAM
The graphic card and monitor should support at least 256 colors.
– Free memory on the hard disk of min. 80 MB (both program packages).
– The ADwin CDROM (see www.ADwin.de, Support Downloads)
If the version of the CDROM is lower than 4.00, see the notes in the fol-
lowing chapters.
For an update first uninstall all existing ADwin program packages (Windows
start menu: Settings
CDROM.
Pay attention to the version number of your ADwin CDROM. Older ADwin ver-
sions do not always have the necessary drivers.
If you do not have installed the right drivers, much more effort is necessary to
correct a wrong driver installation.
After an update, you should not install an older ADwin version. The updates of
the ADwin software are designed in such a manner that applications, pro-
grammed in ADbasic 3.0x, can be used without changes.
For installation under Windows NT, 2000 and XP you must be member of the
user group "Administrators". It is not sufficient to have full access rights on
the PC. Ask your system administrator.
Install the program packages as follows:
1. Insert the ADwin CDROM into the drive of your computer; the setup pro-
gram starts automatically. If not, start the program <setup.exe>
directly from the CDROM.
2. Under "Show readme.txt" you will find important installation infor-
mation, helping you to install correctly.
3. Select "Driver and ADbasic Setup"; this program package is nec-
essary for working with any ADwin system. Follow the notes in the instal-
lation program.
We recommend to use the proposed destination file <C:\ADwin\...>, so
that you can use all example programs without any changes.
4. The program package "Developer Software setup" contains the
interfaces for the development environments (see "Contents of the
CDROM" below). We recommend to install this package in any case.
Use the drivers only when the ADwin system is working. How to use the
drivers is described in the corresponding driver manual.
5. "Show Features" shows the changes of this CDROM compared to ear-
lier versions.
