2.4 Device Setup & Configuration

The Device Installation program is a utility that allows you to set up,
configure and test your device, and later stores your settings on the
system registry. These settings will be used when you call the APIs of
Advantech 32-bit DLL drivers.

Setting Up the Device

Step 1: To install the I/O device for your card, you must first run the

Device Installation program (by accessing Start/Programs/
Advantech Driver for 95 and 98 (or for NT/2000)/Device
Installation).

Step 2: On the Device Installation program window, select the Setup

menu item on the menu bar, and click the Device command
(Figure 2-4) to bring up the I/O Device Installation dialog box
(Figure 2-5). You can then view the device(s) already installed
on your system (if any) on the Installed Devices list box.
Since you haven’t installed any device yet, you might see a
blank list such as the one on the next page (Figure 2-5).
