TLASWUP Software Installation Instructions
Installation Instructions
The following instructions direct you through the process of upgrading the TLA
application software on your TLA logic analyzer. These instructions apply only
to instruments with TLA Application Software V4.0 or higher. To install the
TLA application software on a PC, see Installing the TLA Application Software
onaPCbeginning on page 19.
Contact your nearest Tektronix, Inc., Service Center or Tektronix Factory Service
for installation assistance.
Upgrade Instruction Overview
The basic upgrade procedure is to manually remove the older software, update
the drives, and reinstall the new software. The upgrade steps are listed in this
document.
While performing the upgrade procedures, keep the following items in mind:
H Throughout this procedure you will see the term “log on as Administrator.”
The instrument is set up to automatically log on as Administrator (with no
password) so you may not see the log in prompt. If the network setups have
been changed on your instrument, make sure that you log on as Administrator or as a user who has administrator privileges. Failure to do so can prevent
the software upgrade from completing successfully.
H After logging on as administrator, quit any applications.
H If your instrument does not display the file extensions, you need to change
your folder options to display the file extensions. (From the Control Panel,
double-click Folder Options, select the View tab, and then deselect the “Hide
file extensions for known file types” selection.)
H Use the Windows Add or Remove Programs Control Panel utility to remove
existing software.
H You will be asked to restart Windows after you install each software
package. If you do not restart Windows when prompted your software may
not install properly and can cause unpredictable behavior.
H If Windows does not restart normally, press and hold the On/Standby button
for five or six seconds to force a shutdown.
H You may be asked to remove some software packages that may not be loaded
on your instrument. If this is the case, skip those instructions.

over a network.
Installation Instructions
Install Third-Party
Software
To use all of the features of the TLA application software on your PC, you must
install additional third-party software. The following third-party software is
available on the TLA Application Software CD V5.1, or higher:
H The NI-GPIB-USB software allows you to use the iView software with your
PC.
H The SnagIt software is useful for copying screen shots of logic analyzer data
for use with other applications.
NOTE. Several third-party software applications are included to use with your
logic analyzer. These applications may include software license agreements. Be
sure to abide by those license agreements.
Install the NI-GPIB Software. Complete the following steps to install the NI-GPIB
software on your PC:
