USB DRIVER INSTALLATION
The following installation steps may be slightly different depending on your PC configuration and Windows version.
Follow the Wizard instructions and use the following steps and figures to select the correct installation options.
1. Insert the myPCLab CD in the CD-ROM drive.
2. Connect the module to a PC USB port. Windows® will detect the new hardware and after a few seconds the new
hardware wizard will start.
3. The Found New Hardware Wizard will show-up and ask if you want to connect to Windows Update to get the driver.
Select the “No, not this time” and select “Next”.
4. Select “Install from a list or specific location (advanced)” and select “Next”.
5. Select “Search for the best driver in these locations” and check option “Search removable media”. Select “Next”. If the
installation files are not in a CD, select option “Include this location in the search” and type the path for the required
files.
6. If a warning message regarding Windows® XP compatibility appears, select “Continue Anyway”.
7. The myPCLab driver files will be copied to your computer and, when concluded, a window will show up informing that
the wizard has finished installing the software. Select “Finish”.
8. It is possible that the previous steps repeat a second time for the completion of installation.
After driver installation, proceed to the next chapter to install the myPCLab software that provides configuration,
visualization, recording and data export.
In future connection of myPCLab modules, it is possible that Windows® prompt again for the USB driver installation. In
this case, the same wizard will be presented. Follow the above steps, but select option “Install the software automatically
(recommended)”, since the driver files are already installed.
The following figures are examples of Windows XP® New Hardware Wizard. For Windows 2000® they look different, but
the information is the same.
