CONFIGURATING LOCATOR
Installing software and drivers
You can find Locator software and necessary
drivers in the CD-ROM included in your TWIG
Locator sales package. Latest drivers and con-
figuring tools are available under support sec-
tion in www.twigworld.com.
Connect Locator to your computer with Miini
USB cable. The operating system will notify
you of finding new device, and prompt for
installing necessary drivers. Select to install
drivers manually, and then browse for drivers
in the CD-ROM directory, or your local folder if
you downloaded the drivers from support web
site.
Note that since Locator uses two ports, the
system will prompt for drivers twice. When
this happens, repeat the manual installation
of drivers. After the installation is done, you
may need to restart and reconnect Locator
before changes take effect.
To install Locator configuration software,
select the software file (.exe) from the CD-
ROM and save it in your computer. The config-
uration software is ready to be used without
separate installation.
Opening connection
Once the software and drivers are installed,
you can establish a connection between Loca-
tor and your computer.
Note that Locator
must be turned off
when
connecting to computer except when the
NMEA mode is activated.
Connect Locator to your computer with Mini
USB cable. Then open the configuration soft-
ware by double-clicking Locator .exe-file, or,
depending on the version, L2UPDATE.EXE, on
your computer.
Locator connects automatically to the right
COM port, which you can see in
COM
drop-
down menu. If connection is not created auto-
matically, you can also choose the right COM-
port manually from the
COM
drag-down menu
