To install the GtDio6x software, follow the instructions described below.
● Check and see if a newer version of the software is available for download from Marvin Test Solutions’ web site (www.marvintest.com), in that case download and use the newer version.
● Run the GtDio6x.exe setup and follow the instruction on the Setup screen to install the GtDio6x software.
Note: When installing under Windows, you may be required to restart the setup after logging-in as a user with Administrator privileges. This is required in-order to upgrade your system with newer Windows components and to install the HW kernel-mode device driver which is required by the GtDio6x driver to access resources on your board.
● The first setup screen to appear is the Welcome screen. Click Next to continue.
● Enter the folder where GtDio6x is to be installed. Either click Browse to set up a new folder, or click Next to accept the default entry of C:\Program Files (x86)\Marvin Test Solutions\GtDio6x under 32-bit Windows or C:\Program Files\Marvin Test Solutions\GtDio6x under 64-bit Windows.
● Select the type of Setup you wish and click Next. You can choose between Typical, Run-Time and Custom setups type. The Typical setup type installs all files. Run-Time setup type will install only the files required for controlling the board either from its driver or from its virtual panel. The Custom setup type lets you select from the available components.
The program will now start its installation. During the installation, Setup may upgrade some of the Windows shared components and files. The Setup may ask you to reboot after completion if some of the components it replaced were used by another application during the installation – do so before attempting to use the software.
You can now continue with the installation to install the board. After the board installation is complete you can test your installation by starting a panel program that lets you control the board interactively. The panel program can be started by selecting it from the Start, Programs, GtDio6x menu located in the Windows Taskbar.
