2.2 Installation.
run NscSVCPinstall.exe. This ensures that you have all the latest changes and
patches. Installing a new SCP version automatically replaces an existing older
version. The SCP installation includes a Program Menu selection to uninstall the
application. After the installation you may run the Sensor Signal Path Control
Panel software from the program menu or from the optional desktop icon.
2.3 Board Connection.
system USB 1.0 or 2.0 port using a standard USB cable. When connecting the
board for the first time refer to the Appendix for SPUSI2 Setup Procedure. The

Control Panel is running.
Windows generates a short tone to notify the user that a new USB device has
been detected or removed.
2.3.1 Running Demo Mode Without Any Hardware.
Otherwise, the software comes up in a demo mode where it uses random data to
simulate channel hardware. If this occurs, simply exit and restart the software
with the board connected.
2.4 Software Execution.
double-clicking on the corresponding desktop icon after the board is connected.
The program normally starts by bringing up a board query panel which allows the
user to specify their board from a list of available devices; this step may be
skipped if the board type can be identified from the EEPROM.
