CATC IBTrainer InfiniBand Exerciser, August 2002
Setting Up the IBTrainer
Plug in the IBTrainer and use the delivered USB cable to connect it to
your PC.
N O T E
The IBTrainer has a USB 1.1 port. The delivered USB cable has therefore
two different ends (one for the IBTrainer, one for the PC).
Now start the software to make sure that the IBTrainer is connected to
the PC:
♦ Press Start>Programs>CATC> IBTrainer(Release)>GUI.
The shortcut changes with the release installed. For example, if your
release is 2.0.1.0, then the name of the shortcut is IBTrainer2.0.1.0>GUI.
When the software starts, it looks for attached IBTrainers. The List of
Available Generators
dialog box should contain the name of your
IBTrainer. If your IBTrainer is not listed, double-check the USB
connection. Please also keep in mind that Windows NT does not support
USB.
