DASYLab – Standard Driver
896992 Configuring DASYLab for Personal Daq/54, 55, 56 2-3
Install Low-Level Hardware Driver
If the low-level hardware drivers for your device are not installed, or if you have received a new IOtech
Personal Daq/54, /55, /56 Data Acquisition CD ( p/n 1022-0612), follow these steps.
Both the low-level drivers, installed from the Data Acquisition CD, and the DASYLab
drivers, installed from the DASYLab CD, are required for DASYLab operation.
Note: The installation will automatically perform version verification to ensure that only newer support is
installed.
1. Place the data acquisition CD into the CD-ROM drive. Wait for the PC to auto-run the CD. This
may take a few moments, depending on your PC. If the CD does not auto-run, use the Desktop’s
Start/Run/Browse feature to select and run Setup.exe.
2. After the intro screen appears, click <Enter Setup>.
3. After accepting the licensing agreement, select Personal DaqView.
4. Select DASYLab Support.
5. Click the <Install> button; and follow the screen prompts until the DASYLab Hardware Driver
Selection dialog appears (following figure).
6. Select Personal Daq 54/55/56.
7. Follow the installation wizard configuration screens until the setup is complete.
Use Personal DaqView to verify connections and configurations. This use of Personal
DaqView can be very beneficial, especially in applications making use of expansion modules.
