Introduction

This document describes the folder configuration and naming convention of the DevWareX USB drivers.

Note; Windows8 has special installation steps that must be performed - make sure you review them!
Links can be found under "Driver Installation".

Demo2X Note

For Win10 support of Demo2X, use the driver instructions for "Windows7_64 / Demo2X".

You will most likely need to manually load the driver; use the Windows 7 USB Driver Guide and follow the instructions under "Manual Installation of the USB Driver".

Drivers Folder Configuration

All drivers are located in subfolders under C:\Aptina Imaging\drivers.

The subfolders are identified with their Operating System (OS) and OS size. The OSs supported are listed, each with an OS size of 32-bit and/or 64-bit.

The following table identifies the available drivers and the names of the .inf file (which is used during the driver installation process).

Driver Installation

For instructions on how to install a USB driver, refer the guide for your supported OS;

XP and Windows7 Driver Naming Conventions

The Windows7 drivers follow a naming convention; if a driver combination isn't present it isn't supported.

The naming convention is aaabbcc., where:*

aaa = <driver type>: USB = Demo2X, APT = Demo3

bb = <OS size>: 32 = 32-bit, 64 = 64-bit

cc = <OS>: xp = XP, vi = Vista, w7 = Windows 7

For XP_32, the "cyusb." = Demo2X, "cyusb3.* = Demo3

For XP_64, the "miusb2.inf." is for Demo2X, with no other drivers available.*
