When I try to open MicroLab I get an error message |
|
This usually happens after the operating system fails to save one of MicroLab's settings files.
Navigate to MicroLab folder, delete the Settings.mls file and try to re-open the software.
If that doesn't help delete the Calibration.inf file and try again.
If that doesn't help delete the Defined sensors.ds file and then try to reopen the software.
In any case please contact your local fourtec's supplier for software upgrade

I've just installed MicroLab, and I am using my USB port. When I first plug the Cradle into the computer, it recognizes the Cradle and asks me to install the driver. When I select the option for the computer to automatically find the driver, it doesn't find it. What should I do? |
|
To install the USB driver in Windows Operating system:
1. Insert the CD into your CD drive. If Installation begins automatically (and you have already installed MicroLab), click Cancel to stop installation
2. Connect the Cradle to a USB port on your PC. Windows will automatically detect the new device and open the Add New Hardware Wizard
3. Select Specify the location of the driver, then click Next
4. Select Search for the best driver for your device, then check the Removable Media checkbox, and then click Next
Windows will automatically detect and install the necessary software
Note to the Windows XP user - if the found New Hardware wizard prompts you to a Hardware Installation dialog:
Just click Continue Anyway to proceed
