Traqview Software Installation

NOTE: It is important to install the software and USB driver before plugging the unit into your PC.

Traqview is designed to work with most current Microsoft Windows compatible computers. Check the Systems Requirements section of this manual to ensure that your system is compatible.

To install the software, insert the compact disc into your PC’s compact disc drive. If you do not have a CD reader on your PC, you can download the software and user manual from the

Traqmate website at traqmate.com. You may also check there for software updates.

The CD should automatically run when inserted. If it does not, open “My Computer” and right-click on the CD drive. Choose “Explore”. Now double-click TraqSetup.exe to run the installer program.

Traqview Analysis Software

The Traqview Installer program is self-explanatory. The default options work well for most systems. The program is placed in the “Program Files/Track Systems folder”.

If you have a Display Unit you should install “USB Pre-Installer”. You may de-select this option if you are installing a Traqview Basic system.

When finished, you should get an indication that the new hardware was installed automatically.

You should not have to repeat this installation in the future.

USB Driver

Once the USB drivers are installed, get your Display Unit and the mini-USB cable. Plug the cable into the DU and into a USB port on your computer. The Display Unit should power up and your computer will announce “Found New Hardware”.

The New Hardware Wizard will execute for the Traqmate USB Composite Device.

Choose to search ‘This Time Only’ and ‘Install Automatically’.

When given a warning, choose to ‘Continue Anyway’.

The New Hardware Wizard will execute for the Track Systems Traqmate.

Choose to search ‘This Time Only’ and ‘Install Automatically’.

When given a warning, choose to ‘Continue Anyway’.

Depending on what drivers and libraries were installed, you may be asked to restart your computer. You will not have to install this driver again in the future.

Note: If at any time during the install the installer cannot location the USB drivers, you may manually enter:

C:\Program Files\Track Systems\Traqmate\USB

NOTE: If, when you launch Traqview and attempt to connect to the Traqmate, the USB port is not automatically recognized you will be prompted for the COM Port number. Try the numbers 3 through 12 until you hit upon the one assigned by Windows. After you get it once, it should work successfully in the future.
