4. Symphony Composer Installation Wizard
After you have installed a Symphony HomeRF adapter, the Symphony
Composer Installation Wizard will automatically appear to guide you through
the setup and configuration of your wireless network. You need to complete
the Composer Wizard on each computer in which you installed an adapter.
Note:
To use the Symphony Conductor to share a modem or communi-
cate with another network, complete the Composer Wizard on
the computer that will run the Conductor program FIRST. A
Windows 2000 Professional computer cannot be the Conductor.
The Composer provides a friendly user interface that helps you configure your
network. Each configuration option is explained in detail as you navigate
through the Composer’s installation screens.
The Composer’s Welcome screen, shown below, appears automatically follow-
ing each installation. Also, you can launch the program from the Start Menu
at any time to reconfigure the wireless network.
