Loading the Driver
Having completed the setup, now you can load the driver BIN\DP-DRV.EXE at the DOS prompt.
The driver will detect the board you installed automatically. If the board(s) is(are) detected, a
message similar to below will show:
Smartio/Industio Family DOS driver Version 1.5
Setup driver …
CP-134U series (Bus= x ,Dev=y) : OK!

It means that the CP-134U Series driver is installed properly. At this point, you are ready to
execute applications that support API-232 functions, or start developing applications using API-
