How to install the driver
At a Glance

Driver installation is a standard installation. It can be launched either:
l from the drivers’ CD-ROM,
l or from disks if the station has no CD-ROM drive.

Note: The installation disks are created from the CD-ROM.

How to create a
set of disks

Preliminary
operations

Use the following procedure to create installation disks:
Step

Action

Use a station with a CD-ROM drive.

Insert the CD-ROM into the drive.

Access the directory of the driver to be copied onto disk.

Copy the contents of the DISK1 directory onto a disk. Repeat this step for each
DISK directory.
Note: it is advisable to number the disks.

Before installing the new driver, you must check that no other version of this driver
exists on the station.
If a driver does exist, you must delete it before carrying out the new installation.
A previous version can be uninstalled using:
l Drivers Manager software,
l or the Control Panel → Add/Remove Programs.

The Uni-telway Slave Address window is used to enter:
l the standard slave address of the driver,
l the number of slave addresses used by the driver.
The Modem Communication window is useful when the local station is
communicating via a modem. In this case, this window is used to enter:
l the HAYES string to be sent to the modem in order to initialize it,
l the call number of the remote device,
l the password to be sent to the remote device, if it has been configured with a list
of callers with passwords (e.g. TSX MDM 10 card configured with passwords).

Driver installation is a standard installation. It can be launched either:
l from the drivers’ CD-ROM,
l or from disks if the station has no CD-ROM drive.
Note: The installation disks are created from the CD-ROM.

How to create a
set of disks

Use the following procedure to create installation disks:
Step

Action

Use a station which has a CD-ROM drive.

Insert the CD-ROM into the drive.

Access the directory of the driver to be copied onto disk.

Copy the contents of the DISK1 directory onto a disk. Repeat this step for each
DISK directory.
Note: it is advisable to number the disks.

The TSX PCX 3030 cable is a USB/RS485 link converter. It enables a device to be
connected to a PLC via the USB port using its terminal port.
The cable is "plug ’n’ play". When you connect the cable via the USB port,
Windows 2000 or XP finds a new device and tries to install the corresponding driver.
It is necessary to install two drivers:
l the USB bus driver,
l and the virtual serial port driver.
