2. System Setup
Parallel-based programmer’s software installation is straightforward and self-explanatory. If it’s your
first time to use the USB-based programmer of XELTEK, this chapter will help you to properly install
the software and connect the hardware. USB devices are PnP devices. At first installation, Windows will
start with “new hardware wizard” to scan all available INF files, and find out the appropriate driver. In
order to avoid unwanted complication during installation of USB device, we strongly suggest that you
install the software first. The setup program will handle the needed INF files and drivers automatically.
2.1 Software Setup
The content in 2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.1.3, and 2.1.5 is applicable for both USB-based and Parallel-based
programmers.
2.1.1 Setup from CD-ROM
Insert the CD into a CD-ROM driver and the setup program will start automatically, if not, please run
SETUP.EXE in the root path.
Caution: Each model has its own software, please do not mismatch.
2.1.2 Download software from the Internet
You can download the specific software for a certain model at Xeltek website. It is usually a
self-extracting file. You only need to run this file to setup the software.
2.1.3 Setup Process
The setup procedure goes step by step, you can change the default settings as you needed during setup
process.
First, setup wizard, please read the text carefully.
