Chapter 4  ICOM Tools
4.1  Introduction 
Advantech ICOM Tools is a convenient utility that has been designed to 
help you test the performance of ICOM cards through analyzing the port 
status. It features an easy to use graphical user interface that will soon 
make you familiar with testing via menu commands and toolbar buttons.
Advantech ICOM Tools is applicable to all series of Advantech ICOM 
cards, and can even be used with other third-party ICOM cards. It is 
included for free on the diskette or on the companion CD-ROM with all 
Advantech Industrial Communication cards.
4.2  Installation
To begin installation, double-click the ICOM_Tools.exe program icon in 
the Tools folder or click the Advantech ICOM Utility hyperlink in the 
installation window to launch the ICOM Tools setup program. The setup 
program will copy the program files to the destination folder you choose 
or to the default installation path (i.e. C:\Program Files\Advantech\ICOM 
Tools). A program folder will be created in your Start/Programs menu. 
(Later you can just access the program through Start/Program/Advan-
tech PCI Comm Tools/COM Examine Tool
)
