USB DRIVER INSTALLATION
In order to use the USB interface of the AirGate-GPRS (so you can configure the equipment with the configuration
software, for example), it is necessary to install its USB driver. The installation steps can vary from computer to
computer, between different operating systems, and even between one version and another of the same operating
system.
Windows 8 (64 bits) does not allow the installation of drivers that are not “digitally signed” by Microsoft.
Thus, before installing the USB drivers of the AirGate-GPRS, the following script should be followed:
1. During the boot, you should press the F8 key to enter the Start-up Configurations.
2. Pressing the F7 key, you can disable the Imposition of the Driver Signature.
3. Windows 8 will now allow you to install the USB driver for AirGate-GPRS.
Following are the steps and guidance screens for the driver installation.
WINDOWS 8
1. Connect the AirGate-GPRS in a USB port on your computer. Windows will try to install a driver automatically and will
not succeed, because the necessary driver is not in its standard library.
2. On Desktop screen, right-click on the left-bottom corner of the screen and choose the "Control Panel" option. Then
choose the “System and Security” option, then the "System" option and, at last, "Device Manager".
