Connecting to your Network
The HMT140 Configuration Cable allows you to connect an
HMT140 device to your PC. You can then configure the
device with your network settings using the HMT140 Utility
software (software and cable shipped with viewLinc).
Install the HMT140 Utility Software
The HMT140 Utility software configures and reads the
settings in the HMT140 that use 802.11b and 80211g wireless
networks. The address of the destination host, the wireless
network parameters, transmit period, and other important
network functions of the HMT140 are specified using the
HMT140 Utility. The HMT140 Utility also provides you with
access to tools for diagnosing connection problems.
Before you configure the HMT140, the HMT140 Utility
software must be installed on the PC. The driver is
compatible with Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 7,
and Windows Server 2003.
To install the HMT140 Utility:
1
Disconnect the HMT140 Configuration Cable if it is
already connected to your PC.
2 Insert the CD that came with the HMT140 Configuration
Cable, or download the software from www.vaisala.com.
3 Run the HMT140 Utility installation program
(HMT140UtilitySetup.exe).
4 Accept the license agreement terms, then click Next to
accept the installation default settings. The installation of
the driver may take several minutes.
5 After the software is installed, connect the HMT140
Configuration Cable to a USB port on your PC to
complete the installation. You are now ready to set up
and configure your device.
If you wish to remove the HMT140 Utility software at a later
date, use the uninstall function on your Windows Control
Panel.
