The installer will ordinarily place a shortcut to the OPTIMOD-PC control
application in your computer's START menu under

modPC.exe
When you click on the agent icon, it will open the OPTIMOD-PC control

The installer will also install the OPTIMOD-PC server application and set it
to start automatically at boot-up, running as a Windows service. Please
note that the network cannot see your OPTIMOD-PC card(s) unless you
explicitly expose them to the network as described in step 7 on page 2-9.
Auto-starting the server at boot time allows it to automatically reload
OPTIMOD-PC's DSP code on boot, which can be invaluable in a streaming
application where the stream must automatically restart after a system
crash. The server application has no user controls and you do not have to
interact with it or otherwise worry about it, other than to be aware that
it is normal for it be running in the background as a Windows service.

cards' serial numbers.
If, for convenience in identifying them, you wish to assign them easily remem-
bered names ("aliases"), you must edit their profiles as described in step 6 on
page 2-7.
