Getting Started Minimum System Requirements

Minimum System Requirements

The minimum system requirements for a PC to run the application are as follows:

Table 3: System requirements

Processor

Pentium 4/M or equivalent processor.

Operating System Windows XP Service Pack 2.

Memory

Hard Disk

512 MB of memory.

Approximately 2 GB of available hard-disk space for the recommended installation, which includes full TekExpress installation and distributed components.

Drive DVD drive

Display

Super VGA resolution or higher video adapter (800x600 minimum video resolution for small fonts or 1024x768 minimum video resolution for large fonts). The application is best viewed at 96 dpi display settings

Software Microsoft Excel 2002 or above.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1 or later.

Adobe Reader 6.0 or equivalent software for viewing portable document

format (PDF) ﬁles.

Other Devices Microsoft compatible mouse or compatible pointing device.

Two U SB ports (One USB port minimum).

PCI-GPIB or equivalent interface for instrument connectivity2.

xxx

If TekExpress is running on an instrument having a video resolution lower than 800x600 (for example, sampling oscilloscope), it is recommended to connect a secondary monitor and this has to be enabled before launching the application.

If TekExpress is installed on a Tektronix oscilloscope, the virtual GPIB port cannot be used by TekExpress for communicating with oscilloscope

ications.

appl If external devices like USB-GPIB or equivalent are used for instrument connectivity, ensure that the Talker Listener utility is enabled in the DPO/DSA oscilloscope’s GPIB menu.

The above shared folder is mapped as X: (X drive) on to the PC where TekExpress is running.

NOTE. Map the X: drive only when TekExpress is not running on an oscilloscope. Map the X: drive between the oscilloscope and personal computer or the laptop computer on which TekExpress is running.

NOTE. If X drive is mapped to any other shared folder, TekExpress will display a warning message window asking to disconnect the X: drive manually.

Do the following before you click Run:

NOTE. Ensure that the network connectivity is enabled on the PC running the TekExpress.

1. Map (see page 13) the shared My TekExpress folder as X: (X drive) on all the instruments used

in test setup running Microsoft Windows Operating System. This share folder is used to save the waveform ﬁles or any other ﬁle transfer operations.

2. Right click the

To map the My TekExpress folder on the instruments, follow the steps below:

1. Open Windows Explorer.

2. From the Windows Explorer menu, select Tools > Map Network drive.
