Minimum system requirements:
• PC with Intel P4 Processor, 2Gb Memory
• Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, or 10
• .NET Framework 4.2
Installation
You will need to have Administrator rights to successfully install the GENEActiv drivers and software onto your
PC. If you do not have this then contact your system administrator.
1 Install CD into PC disk drive. Installing the GENEActiv software with Windows requires an additional piece of
software called .net Framework 3.5. This will be automatically installed with more recent versions of Windows
but if it is not shown in the list of programs, it can be installed from the supplied CDROM or downloaded from
the Microsoft website. Double click on “dotnetfx35” to install from the CDROM and follow the instructions
2 Once the CDROM is in the PC, simply double click on GENEActiv software “GENEActivPCSoftwareInstaller”. Install
the software by following the instructions in the wizard. Click ‘Allow’ (if shown) on any security
pop-ups so the installation can proceed
3 Connect the GENEActiv charging cradle to a USB port and plug in a single GENEActiv device as shown. Make
sure that the device ‘clicks’ into place (if it has a strap fitted, the
strap may need to go behind the mounting clip to ensure a good
connection)
4 There is a different set up process dependant on which version of
Windows you are using. Please follow the appropriate setup for
your system (see page 6), for you
to successfully install GENEActiv
5 Allow GENEActiv devices to charge for 3 hours before using them
with the software. A red light on the device will flash to show that
it is charging. When it is fully charged a green light will flash and
the device can be removed
