Introduction
This document contains installing information about DriveWindow SP (Service Pack) 0810. This service pack replaces the service packs DriveWindow SP 0701 and DriveOPC SP 0602. This service pack does not replace any DriveWare service packs. So, DriveWare SP 0407 and possibly DriveWare SP 0303 may be additionally required for DriveWare application programs other than DriveWindow versions 2.20 and 2.21. The Service Pack is distributed as a single executable file (DWSP0810.EXE). It is used to upgrade already installed DriveWindow 2.20 or 2.21 to version 2.22. Upgrading of German and Spanish versions of DriveWindow 2.21 to corresponding 2.22 is included. Some other DriveWare application programs may benefit from the service pack as well.
Prerequisite
In addition of installing DriveWindow SP0810, you need to install DriveWare SP 0303, if: Your operating system is Windows 2000 or Windows XP, and You have Drive Debug 2.8, Drive OPC 2.0 or 2.01, Drive AP 1.0, or DriveWindow 2.0 or 2.01 installed, and You have not installed DriveWare SP 0205 or newer. You may install the service packs in any order as long as you do not use any of the mentioned DriveWare applications between installations.
2 DriveWindow SP 0810 contains the following: Communication library for Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Vista. Except under Windows NT, the upgraded communication library supports also the new RUSB-02 USB/DDCS adapter. Upgrade of DriveOPC COM modules from version 2.0, 2.01, 2.02, 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, or 2.07 to 2.08. Upgrade of DriveWindow 2.20 to 2.22. Upgrade of DriveWindow 2.21 to 2.22. Upgrade of DriveWindow 2.21 DE to 2.22 DE. Upgrade of DriveWindow 2.21 ES to 2.22 ES Upgrade of all DriveWindow helper COM modules. Much of DriveOPC documentation, but not all, is upgraded. DriveOPC examples are not upgraded. Most, but not all, of DriveWindow 2.20 and 2.21 (DE, ES) documentation is upgraded. Note! Not all of the documentation is updated.
Compatibility
Note! Upgrading of DriveOPC 2.0 may cause compatibility problems in clients. The following bug corrections may cause compatibility problems, if the client program is not robust enough: Bug 2.00.100.09: Consistency of error code when quality is bad. Bad values read from a device do not return errors any more. The quality is just marked bad. Bug 2.00.100.17: Enumerated values not starting from one. The lower bound is not always zero any more but is the value corresponding the first string. Also, the value corresponding the first string was always one (other kinds of enumerations were not accepted). In the new release, the lower bound is one in this case.
Enter C:\Windows\Temp\DWSP0810.EXE into the Open field of the Run dialog and click OK.
Installing
When the Setup program displays an installation confirmation message box, click the Yes button.
Follow the instructions given by the installation program. If you have DriveWindow version, which is older than 2.20, installed, you will get the following or similar message during the service pack installation:
In spite of the message, all components needed by your version of DriveWindow have been upgraded. Just DriveWindow itself and its documents are not upgraded.
