Software Installation - SensLab Lactate Scout Assistant Quick Start Manual

2. SOFTWARE INSTALLATION

The installation file for the Lactate Scout Assistant version 1.03 is available
on CD or as download from www.senslab.de for free. Downloaded files
are in ZIP-format and must be extracted by additional software tools (usu-
ally implemented in common PC systems). Existing versions of the Lactate
Scout Assistant must be removed before installation, therefore select the
system settings „Add/remove software" from Windows operating system.
Removing an old version of the Lactate Scout Assistant does not harm the
stored LSA-files, they can also be read and edited continually by new soft-
ware versions without any change.
To execute the installation, your PC system needs the Microsoft Installer
(MSI) in version 2.0, as pre-installed in Windows XP. If using Windows XP,
click twice on the file „LSASetup.msi" for installation. For other operating
systems (Windows 95, 98, Me, NT/2000), click on the file „Setup.exe":
This will install the MSI at first, installing the Lactate Scout Assistant auto-
matically afterwards. The Lactate Scout Assistant has low requirements in
PC configuration (Pentium 90 MHz, Windows 95b).
Launching the LSASetup, a welcome message will
appear at first: Please take care to save all important
data, and to close all running applications, to avoid
any risk of system crashes or loss of data. For the
next step click on „Continue".
Now you can select in which directory of your hard
disk drive the application shall be installed. As the
standard setting, the installer creates a new folder
named „SensLab GmbH" in the „Application" folder
of partition C: At this place usually all other appli-
cations are installed, to launch easily from START
menu in the Windows task bar („all applications").
To install the Lactate Scout Assistant in a different
directory, click on „Browse". To realize free access of
this application for all users, activate „all users".
By click on „Continue", the installation will proceed
with the given settings. After succesfull installation,
you will see this symbol on the Windows-desktop:
