Software

Installation

Insert the CD containing the software. If the installation

does not start automatically, run the program 'setup.exe'

from the CD containing the software. (This will be found in

the directory 'Software' on the CD). An automated script will

install the program on your PC. By default, the directory

C : \ P r o g r a m F i l e s \ D i a l o g

Management\DA9026

will

demonstration files will be placed in the same directory.

Plug in the USB cable, and Windows will detect the USB

device. It will prompt for the drivers, which should be

automatically located on the root directory of the CD The

setup file is Dlgezusb.inf. If Windows suggests that this is

not the driver of this device, please run the program

USB_ID that will be found in the root directory of the CD.

If you are using Windows XP, you may get a message

saying that a USB2 device is attached to a USB1.1 port.

This can safely be ignored.

To uninstall the software please use the Windows 'Add/

Remove Programs' function that can be found under 'Start'-

>'Settings'->'Control Panel'.

Demonstration Panel

Run the DA9026 program by clicking the shortcut on the

appropriate item in the Start menu. The best setting for the

PC display size is 1024x768 pixels, but the default setting is

800*600. The standard Windows option is available to the

user to resize the panel to fill the current screen. It is

important to note that a display size other than the

recommended setting may affect the way in which the

panels appear.

Figure 2. Demonstration panel interface

With this 'Demonstration Panel' the user is provided with the

option of running one of the demonstrations. Up to 20 pre-

configured demo-files may be available, with names of the

form: DEMO1A.txt, DEMO1B.txt, ... DEMO1T.txt. These

demonstration files can be easily changed to different files,

with the format as described in Appendix B.

Select a demo-file from the drop down menu, and then load

and start the DA9026 demonstration by left-clicking the

appropriate demonstration name. This demonstration will

then run continuously, or until an alternative demonstration

is started, or it is stopped.

To change to a different demo-file, just select a new file

from the drop-down menu, and start the demonstration as

before.

The program has an option to play a '.wav' file at the same

time as the demonstration. This is quite simply achieved

within the program by checking for the existence of a

corresponding '.wav' file to the '.txt' file; i.e for DEMO1N.txt,

the corresponding '.wav. file would be DEMO1N.wav. If the

file exists, then it is played at the same time as the

'lightshow'. To aid the user, a 'Sound Icon' is displayed

adjacent to the drop down menu if a corresponding sound

file does in fact exist.

continuously, so there a command button is provided to

'stop the current demonstration', should this be necessary.

On this panel there is also the option of viewing the DA9026

button. These are the values stored in the program that

have been downloaded to the DA9026 device, rather than

the retrieved values from the device.

The command button 'Exit Program' ends the DA9026

program.
