CAUTION
BEFORE INSTALLING THE NEW CONFIGURATION SOFTWARE, IT IS
ALWAYS ADVISABLE TO CLOSE ALL OTHER APPLICATIONS INCLUDING
VIRUS SCANNERS AND OFFICE SUITES. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT
IN THE CORRUPTION OF CERTAIN COMMON FILES.
The configuration software is provided on either one CDROM or two 3.5”
diskettes. It may be installed on any Windows® operating systems. To install,
insert the provided media into the proper drive on your computer and run either
“setup.exe” (floppies) or “cspm481.exe” (CDROM). Follow the onscreen
instructions to complete the installation.
The configuration software may also be freely downloaded from Conax’s web site
at http://www.conaxbuffalo.com. Once at Conax’s site, navigate to “Technical
Data” and browse the page to find the latest version referencing SPM indicators.
For proper communication using your programming adapter, you must first
identify and set the serial port to which it is connected. After the proper serial
port is identified, open the SPMconfigurator32 software. From the menu bar,
select the “Options” menu, click on “Communication” and enter the correct COM
port designation from the pull-down menu. See Figure 1.
