Preparing for Software Installation
This section contains instructions on the installation of the AirMagnet Spectrum XT software.
To ensure that your software installation proceeds smoothly, it is strongly recommended that
you read these instructions carefully before starting the installation. Failure to read these
instructions may cause unnecessary delay in the installation process and even hinder you
from fully utilizing the application.
Keeping Your Serial Number and Serial Key Handy
The entire software installation may require the downloading of the software license from
AirMagnet’s website, which occurs when you restart the computer upon the completion of the
installation. To download the software license, you will be prompted to provide a valid serial
number and serial key for the software. It is strongly recommended that you have your
software’s serial number and serial key handy at the time of installation. Both the serial
number and the serial key are printed on a sticker attached to your software certificate inside
the product package.
Having Live Internet Access
Because you may need to download the software license and register your product from
AirMagnet’s website, you must have a live Internet connection, in addition to a valid serial
number and serial key, for the application to complete the process.
Installing AirMagnet Spectrum XT from a CD
This section discusses installing AirMagnet Spectrum XT from a CD. You should follow these
instructions to install the software if you have purchased the AirMagnet Spectrum XT
software package, which includes the software CD.
To start the installation process, insert the AirMagnet Spectrum XT CD in the PC’s CD-ROM
drive. The installation menu should appear automatically. See Figure 2-1.
