Extracting and installing the software on your USB Flash Drive
For Windows XP and later users:
- Double Click on the zip file that you’ve just downloaded.
- Go up to the top left hand corner of your window, and click on FILE, and then EXTRACT ALL.
- An Extraction Wizard window will appear. Click on NEXT.
- Underneath where it says “Files will be extracted to this directory:” choose the target path for your USB flash drive (for example if the flash drive is recognized as drive E on your computer, the path will be “E:\”). The files MUST be extracted within the root directory of the flash drive , and not within an existing folder.
- Click on the NEXT button. This should start copying all the necessary files to the target drive. Once complete, click on the FINISH button.
Installing onto your ProtoTRAK control
Once all files are copied, take the USB flash drive over to your Prototrak ELX control and insert it into a free USB slot. From there, go into the DRO section, SERV CODES, and press 316 and then the ABS SET button. This will automatically update the software to the control, and ask you to recycle the power once complete.
