Checking configuration
Configuration disk
For first-time installations, check your software packet for a CONFIGU-
RATION floppy disk after installing VISCPRO
®
. If you have one, insert
the disk in your floppy disk drive and follow the instructions printed on
the disk label to add factory calibration information for your instrument
to your VISCPRO
®
database.
CAUTION
Copying floppy disk information to your VISCPRO
®
directory will over-
write existing sample data. If you wish to restore the original configura-
tion, make certain to archive your sample data before doing so (see
Chapter 13 for information on using the Database Manager software).
Follow the procedures in the next several sections of this chapter to
verify/edit the instrument and calibration settings to ensure that they
conform to the actual characteristics of your CANNON
®
instrument.
Configuration protection
To check the configuration settings for your instrument(s), you must log
in to the security system as a manager. The software is installed with a
default Manager account. This account has no password, allowing any
operator access to manager-level software functions as long as the
password is not activated/changed. If you would like to engage the full-
release security options, see Security Options in Chapter 4 for instruc-
tions.
