KVH Industries eTrac ユーザーズマニュアル

When starting up the eTrac system for the first time, it should be connected to a
Windows-based PC or laptop computer via the DB9 cable port on the Breakout Box.
The easyMail installation/configuration application available for download from
Thrane & Thrane is compatible with Windows 3.1, 95, 98, 2000, ME, and XP. If you
have a different Windows operating system, please refer to Section 2.4.4, “Manual
easyMail Configuration.”

The following procedure assumes that you have already followed the instructions
provided on the CD-ROM and successfully downloaded the easyMail application:

1.

Connect the laptop or PC to the DB9 serial port connector on the
Breakout Box. Leave the eTrac system powered off at the start of the
easyMail installation process. It will be turned on later.

2.

Follow the instructions on how to install easyMail.

3.

If the welcome page does not start automatically, use Windows 
Start->Run->Browse to select the easyMail installation file 

in the easyMail folder. When found, press 

to install easyMail.

4.

If the installer needs to update some Windows files, a dialog box
will appear. Answer 

to update these files.

5.

If the program shows a 

dialog box, it is

recommended that the existing file be kept. This is done by
answering 

to the question asked.

6.

When the installation is complete, a shortcut to easyMail is placed in
the Start Menu Program list. Run the program by selecting Start->
Programs-> easyMail.

7.

Power up the eTrac and run the easyMail program.

If the eTrac system and easyMail application were installed correctly and the PC or
laptop is connected to the Breakout Box, the Status field in the top of the easyMail
program should be green or yellow (not red). This indicates that the protocol between
easyMail and the eTrac is up and running.
