maintenance, and software uninstall.
3.1. Installation
PC software installation is assigned to new installation and upgrade installations. The new installation is for the user's
first-time installation. Upgrade Installation: This feature enables users to upgrade existing software.
New Installation
When you install the host software for the first time, you can choose default installation or a personalized installation.
Default installation: Do not select the corresponding software module. Follow the default options on the installation page
and install the software as prompted.
Personalized installation: Users can install clients, servers, backup servers, and reporting servers based on different
requirements. You can manually set an installation path and select the language.
Notice: The software only supports NTFS file systems. Before installation, disable the Windows firewall or
enable ports TCP8002, 8003 (device ports), and 8004.

2. Operation software installation
Decompress the BTS.9.1.4 file, open the decompressed BTS91_SETUP file, and run Setup.exe as the administrator to
go to the installation wizard page, as shown in Figure 3-2. User can select the Chinese or English version as required.
Click Next button to enter BTS9.1.4 installation interface, as figure 3 - 3 shown:

If you select "Manually specify the installed version directory," you can select a previous software installation directory to
overwrite the installation.
If you click Next, the Select Installation Content page is displayed. The installation wizard directly locates the directory
that was installed before, but this directory must be empty before the next installation can be performed. You can click the
"Select installation path" button to select a new installation directory.
The default installation are includes client installation and server installation. You can also select the installation contents as
required. Click the Next button to start the software installation after confirming precautions such as disabling the firewall,
as shown in Figure 3-4.
During the installation, if OpenService Failed is displayed during the process of forcibly clearing historical services, it is
because the user installs the software for the first time and the system does not have historical services to be cleared. This
will not affect the installation and operation of the software and will not be displayed when the software is installed again,
as shown in Figure 3-5:

If you select "Install Server" and "Install Backup Service" during personalized installation, check whether the options
are correctly installed after the installation:
1Open“Control panel”→“Managing tools”interface.
2As shown in Figure 3-7, select service to view Neware_BTS9_MySQL, Neware_BTS9_Server, and Newa
re_BTS9_Backup.The four services are listed on the right and have already begun.
Figure 3-7 Server display window
If all functions are installed, ensure that the five services are started. If any service is not started, right-click
the service and choose Start from the shortcut menu.
3If any of the five services is missing from the list, uninstall the latest installed services and reinstall them. Then
check whether the server is correctly installed (repeat the above steps).
4If the any of the five services is manual, practice the following steps to change the startup type to automatic. The
Neware_BTS9_Standard_Report service, whose startup type is manual, is used as an example.
Methods:
Right-click“Neware_BTS9_Standard_Report”→Right-click Properties, and the Properties dialog box is
displayed.
Select Automatic from the drop-down list box. As shown in the figure below:
Figure 3-8 Neware_BTS9_ Standard_ReportService Properties dialog box
Notice: In the computer management window, right-click and choose "Stop" from the shortcut
menu to stop the running service. This operation is required to shut down the running service
when the server needs to be manually upgraded.

First, after the hardware is connected, use the client search function to search for the
device and ensure that the IP address is correct. Ensure that the first three segments of the IP address are the same and that
the last segment is different. Then, connect the TCP/UDP debugging tool to the corresponding device to perform debugging.
The specific operation process is as follows:
1. Hardware connection
Method of connecting the device as described in Section 2.6. After the device is connected, check the circuit, turn the
power on and start the device, and ensure the device indicator is on.
2. Equipment searching
1Searching for devices from BTS software
Click device search button on BTS device list display area, the search dialog box will be displayed.
You can select Mid-machine, Calibrate Tooling, and Multi-meter as required. Click the Search button to
display all online devices and related device information in the list.
Double-click the device list. The Set Device Information dialog box is displayed. You can change the MAC
address as required. Select the Automatically Obtain IP Address (DHCP) option box to automatically obtain
an IP address. As shown in the picture below, click the OK button to complete the modification.
The device IP address in the device information is the IP address of the mid-machine. The server's IP address
must be the same as the IP address of the PC.
Figure 3-12 Equipment searching interface
Inside the BTS9000 high precision tester, every 8-channel are corresponding to a mid-machine. When searching for the
mid-machine through the client, the mid-machine with the same channels number and the same code will be found, as
shown in the figure below, multiple BTS9 devices on the mid-machine have been searched.
Figure 3-13 Equipment searching interface
When using these devices, you need to change the server IP addresses of these channels to the IP addresses of the
current PC. After the modification, the four channels of the device will be activated. The client will map all these
device channels to the same mid-machine in the form of multiple channels of the mid-machine, as shown in the
following figure:
