LICENSED DASHDAQ DRIVERS
Some third party devices require the purchase of a licensed driver in order to provide full operation with the DashDAQ. These licenses
can be purchased online at,
www.dashdaq.com
, or by calling Drew Technologies. Licenses can be purchased at the time of purchase or
any time thereafter.
Licenses are assigned to the DashDAQ, based on the DashDAQ serial number, and can not be refunded or transferred.
A license purchased after the original DashDAQ purchase, can be added to the DashDAQ using the DashDAQ Recovery tool. An email
will be sent alerting you when you can update your device with the new license.
Follow the Updating DashDAQ instructions below for further instructions.

2. Using the [<] or [>] locate and select the driver you wish to install. Then tap [install].
3. Next select which port the input is located on. You can only have 1 item per port type.

manager.
Now your device will be installed in the slot you specified. All installed devices can be assigned to any gauge.
To remove a driver/input:
