2. Installation of drivers and configuration of PC
parameters
The “Inertial Labs INS GUI” software doesn’t require any installation. Just
copy the software folder INS_GUI_002 to the working directory.
When you connect the INS to a standard computer COM port, drivers are
not needed. If the INS is connected to a USB port with a COM-to-USB
converter see “Appendix A. Installation of the COM-to-USB converter drivers
and configuration of PC parameters” for more details.
If you use the INS with RS-422 interface you need to install RS422-to-USB
converter driver. See “Appendix B. Installation of the MOXA Serial-to-USB
converter drivers (for INS with RS-422 interface)”
To know the numbers of the PC COM ports click “Device Manager” in the
“Hardware” tab of the “System Properties” window (Fig. 2.1). In the opened
“Device Manager” window (Fig. 2.2) you will see the COM ports which will
be marked as “Communications Port (COMN)” or “USB Serial Port
(COMN)” or “MOXA USB Serial Port (COMN)”. Number N in the port name
is assigned by OS.
