Before installing AKIP-A_Standard_V3.12, please close any running programs and uninstall any previous version of the Logic Analyzer software. 3.2. Insert the installation disk of PRIST Logic Analyzer into CD-ROM and carry out the following process: 1.If the drive auto-runs the installation program, please click "Install PRIST Logic Analyzer" button. 2.If CD isn't auto-run, please double-click "My computer" icon on desktop and double-click Setup.exe on CD-Rom. Then, click "Next" button. [Note] During the installation process, if your computer requests authorization, please click to authorize permission to install the program. If there is an error message during the installation process, please check with your system administrator to ensure that the account has sufficient rights to install system drivers. 3.3. After installation, please click [I accept the terms in the license agreement] to continue installing. If you don't accept the terms, the installation will be cancelled. 3.4. When the installation is completed, system will ask you to re-start. You can choose to re-start system right now or later. "Yes" is recommended. 3.5. After you connect and apply power to the Logic Analyzer, the system will find the new hardware and install the Logic Analyzer's driver automatically. When the installation is completed, the Logic Analyzer is ready for use. 3.6. If the system doesn't find the the Logic Analyzer when it has been connected and switched on, please check that the file, bulkusb.INF, is in the path, "C:\Program Files\PRIST\AKIP-A\Standard". (This path is created during the installation or selected by yourself). 3.7. You may see a "AKIP-A_Standard_V3.12" icon on the Desktop. Double-Click this icon and then you can execute the Logic Analyzer software. Besides, you can click the "Start" button at the left side of menu bar. Next, move the mouse cursor to "Program Files" and then you can see the "PRIST" item from the pull-down menu and select the "AKIP-A" to execute the Logic Analyzer software. 4.
