Running the Orban Installer Program

Insert the installer CD into your computer's CD drive.
The installer should start up and ask you if you wish to install the PC Remote appli-
cation on your computer. If it fails to do so, navigate to Start \ Run on your com-
puter, and type X:setup (where "X" is the drive letter of your CD drive).
Follow the prompts on your screen to install the PC Remote software automatically
on your computer.

You might have obtained the automatic installer application from some other
source than Orban's CD, like Orban's ftp site or another computer on your net-
work. If so, just run the application and follow the on-screen instructions.

This program installs the necessary files and adds an Orban / Optimod 6300
folder to your computer's Start Menu. This folder contains shortcuts to the PC
Remote application and to the documentation. If you accepted the option dur-
ing installation, there is also a shortcut to the PC Remote application on your
desktop.
You have now installed all files necessary to use the PC Remote software. If you are
using a direct serial or a modem connection, the next step is to install and configure
