2 Getting Started
Before starting:
Ensure the SpacePoint Fusion module is part number 13035. The SpacePoint Demo
Program will not operate properly with legacy part numbers 12905, 13008, or 13010.
Install the SpacePoint Demo Program on your computer. “Extract” all the files from the
“SpacePoint Demo.zip” file. This will put a folder called “SpacePoint Demo” on your
computer, and this folder will include the executable program, “SpacePointDemo.exe”,
and the folder “SpacePointDemo_Data”. These two items must remain located within
the same directory on your computer’s hard drive. The SpacePoint Demo Program is
built on a Unity platform and will run on Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows7
computers.
Ensure Microsoft’s .NET Framework and Visual C++ Redistributable are installed on your
computer. If you are uncertain if they are installed, go to the “Control Panel”, then “Add
or Remove Programs”. You should see “Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable – x86” and
either “Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5” or “Microsoft .NET Framework 4 Client Profile”
in the list of currently installed programs. If either is missing, they can be downloaded
at Microsoft’s website: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspx . In the
event the SpacePoint Demo Program does not work properly, uninstall all versions of
Microsoft .NET Framework and reinstall it.
While not necessary, a dedicated graphics accelerator card is recommended as some of
the SpacePoint Demo Program screens are rather graphics intensive. Also, closing out of
all other applications is recommended, as is using a single-monitor computer system.
Since this program is intended to demonstrate the possibilities enabled by PNI’s
SpacePoint technology, no guarantees are made regarding the ability to operate on any
or all computer configurations.
To use the SpacePoint Fusion demonstration module:
1) Plug the SpacePoint Fusion into your computer’s USB port. Once the module is
connected, its blue and green LEDs will light up.
