9.5 Quick start commissioning/start-up
(CTSoft)
CTSoft is a Windows™ based software commissioning/start-up tool for
Unidrive SP and other Control Techniques products.
CTSoft can be used for commissioning/start-up and monitoring, drive
parameters can be uploaded, downloaded and compared, and simple or
custom menu listings can be created. Drive menus can be displayed in
standard list format or as live block diagrams. CTSoft is able to
communicate with a single drive or a network.
CTSoft can be found on the CD which is supplied with the drive and is
also available for download from www.controltechniques.com (file size
approximately 25MB).
CTSoft system requirements:
• Windows 2000/XP. Windows 95/98/98SE/ME/NT4 and Windows
2003 server are NOT supported
• Internet Explorer V5.0 or later must be installed
• Minimum of 800x600 screen resolution with 256 colors. 1024x768 is
recommended.
• 128MB RAM
• Pentium III 500MHz or better recommended.
• Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.1 or later (for parameter help). See CD
provided
• Microsoft.Net Frameworks 2.0
• Note that you must have administrator rights under Windows 2000/
XP to install.
To install CTSoft from the CD, insert the CD and the auto-run facility
should start up the front-end screen from which CTSoft can be selected.
Any previous copy of CTSoft should be uninstalled before proceeding
with the installation (existing projects will not be lost).
Included with CTSoft are the user guides for the supported drive models.
When help on a particular parameter is request by the user, CTSoft links
to the parameter in the relevant advanced user guide.
