2.3. Software and Hardware Installation
Installing the digiBASE and the MAESTRO MCA Emulation Software takes just four easy
steps:
1) Install the accompanying version of the CONNECTIONS Driver Update Kit (p/n 797230),
being sure to select USB-based instruments on the Instrument Families screen.
2) Install the accompanying version of MAESTRO (A65-BW).
3) Connect the digiBASE to the USB port on the computer.
4) Run the MCB Configuration program to establish communication with your MCBs.
2.3.1. Step 1: Install the CONNECTIONS Driver Update Kit
The first step is to install the accom
panying version of the CONNECTIONS
Driver Update Kit. This product
must be installed before MAESTRO
can be installed. On the Instrument
Families page, be sure to mark the
USB-based instruments checkbox,
as shown in Fig. 3. Otherwise the
digiBASE will not be able to com-
municate with the computer and
MAESTRO.
If you also have other types of MCBs
attached to this computer, refer to the
installation instructions in the corre-
sponding hardware manuals. Note that
you can install device drivers for other
types of instruments later, as described
in the CONNECTIONS Driver Update
Kit instructions.
2.3.2. Step 2: Install MAESTRO
Install the accompanying copy of MAESTRO according to the instructions in its User’s Manual.
