13. ON SENSING 5 Getting Started 5 1 Installation Overview The software installation program uses the ClickOnce installation format and can therefore be installed onto a PC without administrator rights However administrator rights are required whenever the application connects to an individual MEV device for the first time This is because the application needs to change the MEV default driver settings which are stored in the HKEY LOCAL MACHINE area of the Windows registry For subsequent connections to that MEV device the application will not require administrator rights The recommended installation sequence is therefore 1 2 3 4 Obtain administrator rights on the PC Install the MEV driver see section 5 2 Install the software see section 5 3 The installation procedure automatically runs the application once the installation has completed and at this point you should connect to the installed MEV device using the Connect button 5 2 Installing the MEV RS485i USB Serial Converter Device Driver 5 2 1 Installation Procedure The MEV RS485i includes an installation CD containing a USB driver file To install the driver proceed as follows 1 2 DMU10 00 0100 910 Issue 1 January 2015 Ensure that you have administrator rights on the PC Run lt CD ROM Drive letter gt Drivers Win XP Vista 7 8 2003 2012 CDM20828 Setup exe This will install the required drivers into the Windows System folder Plug the MEV R
