Installation Instructions

DO NOT PLUG IN THE BOARD BEFORE MOBILE STUDIO DESKTOP™ IS INSTALLED

  1. Download Mobile Studio Desktop™ from the link above. Click Run when prompted.
  2. After the download has finished, the installer will begin. You will be prompted to accept the Mobile Studio Desktop™ license agreement.
  3. Proceed through the installer screens. All of the default options are fine. If you receive any security warnings, click "Continue Anyway."
  4. Depending on the configuration of your computer, you may be prompted to install the Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 and/or the National Instruments VISA library. If you are prompted to install either of these, they are required. Due to the size and complexity of these, installation of either may take upwards of 30 minutes.
  5. Once the installer has finished, you will be returned to your desktop. If prompted, reboot your computer before continuing.
  6. You can now connect your IOBoard to a USB port on your computer.
    NOTE: If a small popup appears in the lower right side of your screen that says "This device will perform better if connected to a USB 2.0 port", either your computer does not have the required equipment, or there is a problem with your machine.
  7. Depending on which version of the IOBoard you have, you may be prompted to find the drivers. Proceed through the Add New Hardware wizard, accepting all the default options. Once driver installation is complete, you will be returned to your desktop.
  8. Double click on the new Mobile Studio Desktop™ icon on your desktop. This will start the application.
