SUMMIT 8800 CONFIGURATION SOFTWARE 10
10. Configuration Software
10 .1 Introduction
The SUMMIT 8800 configuration software is Windows based software which has two major func-
tions:
• It allows the user to create a configuration, specific to his application.
• It also allows communication with a Summit 8800 to transfer configuration and setup data
and for downloading of results, tables and report data.
In this volume of the handbook, the second function will be described. In volume 2 and 3 the
actual configuration will be described.
The functionality of this Windows software is closely related to the firmware installed in the
Summit 8800. It is therefor imperative to have a software version which at least matches the
Summit firmware, see also chapter Firmware. As the software is upwards compatible, a higher
configuration software version can also be used.
The software is part of the SUMMIT 8800 package and is normally provided on CD-ROM. Newer
versions with additional functionality become available at regular intervals and can be requested
free of charge.
For an installation instruction of the Configurator, see Appendix: Install the Configurator.
