If Windows is configured to ignore file signature warnings the installation process is started and no

further dialogue will appear. If Windows is configured to warn when unsigned (non-WHQL certified)

drivers are about to be installed, a

Security Alert

dialogue will appear. The dialogue text depends on

the Windows version (32- or 64-bit).

The complete CAN driver package for Windows 64-bit versions is digitally signed and you will see a

dialogue box, which indicates that Windows has verified that the device driver is released by

esd

and

hasn’t been tampered. As both (32-bit and 64-bit) driver packages are not signed by the WHQL

(Windows Hardware Quality Labs) the Security Alert dialogue has to be a answered with

Yes

continue the driver installation. For more details about device driver and software signing refer to

chapter 2.4.

After copying the necessary driver files to the system Windows displays a message indicating that the

installation was successful. Click

Finish

to complete the installation.

After the driver installation has been completed, you may open the device manager to verify the correct

installation and configure some driver parameter. Refer to chapter 2.4 for details.
