Description
We recommend a 'clean install' for DatLab installation: rename your previous DatLab programme subdirectory (e.g. C:\DatLab_OLD). The standard Instrumental and SUIT DL-Protocols package is automatically implemented with the simple DatLab programme installation.
PC requirements
- A PC or notebook is required (not included in our offers), connecting DatLab to the O2k via the USB cable supplied with the O2k.
- Minimum requirements: Intel-Core-2 or equivalent CPU, 2GB RAM, Windows XP
- Recommended: Intel i5 or equivalent CPU, 4GB RAM, Windows 10, SSD
- Working recommendation: For data safety reasons and optimal DatLab performance it is strongly recommended to operate your DatLab files, DL-Protocols and DatLab templates on the PCโs local HDD.
Installation
- Download
- From the Oroboros USB-flash drive delivered with the O2k.
- O2k users can download the DatLab software from the Oroboros website: ยป www.oroboros.at
- The password is provided in the context of delivery of the O2k.
- The Bioblast password is not the same as the Datlab password.
- If the password got lost, contact: [email protected]
- Download
:::: Install DatLab for two or more O2ks on one computer
- Install two (or more) copies of DatLab in two (or more) different directories, e.g. DatLab_O2k1 and DatLab_O2k2.
- Create two or more shortcuts to the different .exe files. (the .exe files do not have to be renamed because they are in different directories). In this way, the O2k-specific .ini files are separated in the different directories.
- Assign different Power-O2k numbers and activate Graph/Display Power-O2k (see Display_Power-O2k) to distinguish the individual O2ks in the graphs.
Upgrade DatLab and compatibility
- DatLab can be installed within the directory of a previous DatLab version (recommended option). In this case all DatLab files will be kept, but some layouts are overwritten.
- During the first start of DatLab the information in any previous *.ini file in the same directory will be copied into the new *.ini.
- The nomenclature of some default graph layouts has changed. We recommend users upgrading to the current DatLab version to update Graph layouts by installing the new DatLab version.
- Compatibility with previous DatLab versions: DatLab is downwards compatible: DLD files generated by previous DatLab versions can be analyzed using the current version.
Information for IT-administrators
- DatLab does not write any part of the registry nor to any directory besides the program directory and its subdirectories, the data-directory and the user's temporary files folder.
