OMI 2.3.1 Release Notes 31
Windows 2000 Installation
If you have already installed your frame grabber hardware, use the installation
procedure for Windows 98 (replacing \Drivers\win98 with \Drivers\win2000). See
Windows 98 Installation on page 32.
Note If you have installed two boards in your Windows 2000 system and
use the Windows 98 installation procedure, the Plug and Play
installation wizard will run twice, once for each board.
If you have not yet installed your frame grabber hardware, follow these steps to install
OMI under Windows 2000:
Note For Windows 2000 systems, make sure the Plug and Play option in
the BIOS is set to Yes.
1. Install the OMI software by inserting the CD-ROM, double-clicking the setup.exe
icon, and following the on-screen prompts. The installation program installs both
OMI software and the Windows 2000 device drivers for your frame grabber.
2. Keep the following points in mind as you install the software:
• If your computer system has been upgraded from Windows NT to Windows
2000, make sure you have uninstalled any previously installed version of OMI
or OMI software. You might need to manually remove driver files as described
in the section Uninstalling OMI Software on page 33.
• Be sure to select the correct frame grabber family so that the right device driver
is installed.
3. Power the PC off and install the Cognex MVS-8000 series frame grabber as
described in its hardware manual.
4. Power the PC back on. When you restart your system, Windows 2000 displays
messages indicating that it has detected and installed the new hardware.
Note As OMI drivers are not signed, Windows 2000 systems may refuse
to install a driver. You can prevent Windows 2000 from blocking the
installation of unsigned drivers by opening the System control
panel, clicking the Hardware tab, clicking the Driver Signing
button, and selecting either Ignore or Warn.
Windows NT Installation
If you are installing OMI under Windows NT, follow the steps in this section.
