2 Installing the Software and
the PCAN-USB Hub
This chapter deals with the software setup for the PCAN-USB Hub
under Windows and the connection of the hub to the computer.
Drivers for the CAN interface as well as the RS-232 interfaces are
installed. All drivers are installed from the provided Product CD.
Setup the driver for the CAN interface before
connecting the PCAN-
USB Hub to the computer for the first time.
Do the following to setup the driver for the CAN interface:
1. Make sure that you are logged in as user with administrator
privileges (not needed for normal use of the PCAN-USB Hub
later on).
2. Insert the CD into the appropriate drive of the computer.
Usually a navigation program appears a few moments later.
If not, start the file Intro.exe from the root directory of the
CD.
3. On the page English > Drivers activate the entry PCAN-USB.
4. Click on Install now. The setup program for the driver is
executed.
Follow the instructions of the setup program.
Tip: If you don't want to install the CAN monitor PCAN-View for
Windows onto hard disk together with the driver, you have the
option to start the program later directly from CD without prior
installation.
