3. DRV3 Lite Settings Application
The following section describes how to use the DRV3 Lite Settings application to configure
the DRV3 Lite from a computer operating under Windows.
NOTE
This installation of DRV3 Lite Settings is required only if operating parameters
need to be modified.This can also be performed using the CPAT Mobile
application described in Section 4.
3.1 Installing the PC-based DRV3 Lite Settings Application
Effigis provides a PC-based settings application to configure the DRV3 Lite unit. This
software is required to configure your DRV3 Lite from your Windows PC. It is also useful to
configure several DRV3 Lite units with the same settings.
The DRV3 Lite Settings Application can read the setting of a configured DRV3 Lite unit and
copy these settings to other DRV3 Lite units.
NOTE
The DRV3 Lite Settings Application is a required system component for any
modifications to the DRV3 Lite settings. Another option is to use a third-party
module, which was developed with the DRV3 Lite Commands Set application
programming interface (API). This API can be sent upon written request to an
Effigis representative.
The application can be downloaded from the following link:
