anyone who is involved in network optimization and or analysis
•MaterialsComputer, XCAP software, USB dongle, supported data log files
•Installation
•Install USB dongle driverTwo types of USB dongle driver: • Evaluation Dongle – monthly renewal is required• Commercial Dongle
Evaluation Dongle:Run HASP_for_eveluation.exe
Commercial Dongle:Run Rainbow_for_commercal.exe
3
Run HASP_for_eveluation.exe Run Rainbow_for_commercal.exe
DON’T connect the USB dongle to laptop before & during driver installation
•Installation
•Install USB dongle driver
• After driver installed, connect USB dongle to laptop and Window will detect the devices.
• Open Device Manager and check the dongle is installed probably.• If problem found, you should [1] re-install driver, or [2] lookup update driver from HASP/Safenet(Rainbow) web sites.
