Introduction
The following guide has been developed for installing TrakPro Data
Analysis software. The TrakPro software can be installed on
Windows 7, Windows Vista, or XP operating systems. To install this
software, you need administrative rights on the computer.
The Windows Mass Storage drivers, available only on Windows 7,

Windows Vista, and XP are required for the AeroTrak instruments.
The USB install has been combined with the TrakPro software
installation. As part of the software installation, the USB driver files
are placed in the required directories. The MSCAL.OCX file for the
calendar control is also added and registered to prevent error
