Microsoft Windows on the analyzer
The analyzer is shipped from the factory with Windows® 10 operating system. This OS supports both 32-bit and 64-bit applications.
The analyzer has USB ports on the front panel and on the side panel. The main advantages of USB are “hot” connects and disconnects and fast data transfer speeds. Electronic Calibration modules are also available with USB connections.
The first time you plug a device into a USB port there is some wait time. Windows reports it is identifying the hardware, then searching for the correct driver, then installing the driver (if it was found).
Connecting that same device back into that same port later is quick and easy, but if you move the device to a different USB port, you will have to wait through the hardware ID and driver search again.

Windows supports DHCP and fixed IP addressing. Also, “Hot” connect and disconnect of the LAN cable, as well as a visual indicator of LAN status in system tray area, makes LAN connections more intuitive. In addition, the Hardware Wizard helps users with system hardware configuration.
By default, Windows does not allow you to select to make the button on the right the one you use for primary functions such as selecting and dragging. To change any mouse properties, click Start > Control Panel > Mouse. In the Mouse Properties dialog box, select any settings that you would like to change, click Apply and then click OK.
