2.2.5.2 Changing the Driver Association for a Compatible GigE
Network Adapter
During installation of the Basler pylon SDK or the Basler pylon Viewer, the current network adapter-
driver associations are changed for all network drivers installed in your PC with Basler drivers
replacing the current drivers.
If you want to reestablish a network adapter-driver association with the original driver, follow the
procedures below. As an example, the procedures describe how to change the driver on a GigE
network adapter from the Performance Driver back to the original driver.
1. Open a Network Connections window. Make sure that the window is set to display details (right
click within the window, select View, and select Details).
2. Find the entry for the network adapter whose association you want to change. When moving
the pointer over the name of the network adapter, notice that the tooltip indicates Basler GigE
Vision Adapter.
3. Right click on the name of the network adapter.
4. Select Properties from the drop down menu. A LAN Connection Properties window for the
adapter will open.
5. Click the Configure button.
6. Select the Driver tab.
7. Click the Update Driver button.
8. When the hardware wizard opens, select No, not this time and click the Next button.
9. Select Install from a list or specidfic location (Advanved) and click the Next button.
10. Select Don't search, I will choose the driver to install and click the Next button.
11. From the list that appears, select the original driver for the adapter (e.g., in a case where the
Intel PRO 1000 GT Desktop Adapter is installed in the PC, select Intel PRO 1000 Desktop
Adapter from the list) and click the Next button.
12. The system will update the driver. Click the Finish button.
13. Close the Properties window.
14. In the Network Connections window, notice that the Device Name for the adapter has changed
(in the case of the Intel PRO 1000 GT, it will now be Intel PRO/ 1000 GT Desktop Adapter).
The network adapter-driver association is changed.
