Installation of WaMi Rack 192 under Windows Vista & 7/8 (from v1.10)

Introduction

This text describes how to install the WaMi Rack 192L and WaMi Rack 192X driver under Windows 8.1 (32- or 64-bit) with driver versions starting from version 1.10. The process is virtually the same for Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8. A description of the installation with earlier drivers (up to version 1.08) can be found here.

Installation

Make sure that you have downloaded and unzipped the driver file. Install the WaMi Rack 192 hardware in your computer if not already done. If you are just booting your system, Windows might detect the hardware as a new device and a Found New Hardware dialog will appear automatically. If so, click Cancel.

To start the installation, launch the setup program, which is an .exe file that is inside the driver download, by double clicking on it. Typically the filename is something like WR192_LX_vX.YY_setup.exe where X.YY is the version number of the driver. When launching the installer, Windows might display a security message. Make sure to allow the installation. After that, the following dialog will appear:

Click Next and then the following dialog will appear:

Now click Install. Files are now being copied. After some time an additional dialog will appear:

Confirm this by clicking Next. Again some files are being copied and typically you will be prompted with a Windows Security message like this:

Confirm it by clicking Install. After a while the installation then will be completed and the following dialog will appear:

Once you see this, click Finish. On some systems it might be good to reboot the computer manually now. You will see that the WaMi Rack 192 control panel is now automatically being loaded and displayed - the installation is finished.

Uninstallation

In case you need to uninstall the driver at a later time, you will find it under the list of installed Programs in Windows Control Panel. You can simply remove it there.
