CHAPTER 1: Getting Started System Requirements To use a HAL System, the following items are required: l You must have access to a computer running Microsoft Windows 7 or greater. The computer must also have an Ethernet port, which you use to connect the computer to the HAL device (either directly or via an Ethernet network via a shielded CAT 5e cable). This connection is necessary for using the Halogen software to load configuration information into the device and also for monitoring detailed status information. Note that some status information is visible on the hardware itself. l You must have administrative rights to install the Halogen software, but you do not need administrative rights to run the software. l Most RADs require two, three, or four-gang standard switchboxes (for installation into a wall). A DR1 requires a one-gang switchbox, while a DR2 and DR3 require two-gang switchboxes. Switchboxes used for both RADs and DRs must have a minimum depth of 2 1/4" (57 mm). Minimum Requirements for Running Halogen l Microsoft Windows 7 or greater (32 or 64-bit) l PC with 1.6 GHz Dual Core Processor (for example, Intel Core Duo, AMD Athlon X2) l 1 GB RAM l 2 GB available hard disk space l Display Resolution: 1024x768, 24 bit color l Ethernet adapter: 100baseT l DVD Drive for installation from DVD (or can install from Rane website) Recommendations for Best Performance l Microsoft Windows 7 or greater (32 or 64-bit) l PC with mid-level processor @ 2GHz multi-core or better (for example, Intel i3 or greater) l 2 GB RAM l 2 GB available hard disk space l Display Resolution: 1920 x 1080, 24-bit color l Display Adaptor: supports rendering tier 1 or 2 (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms742196.aspx) (i.e. directX 9.0 or greater) l Ethernet adapter: Gigabit 7

System Requirements
To use a HAL System, the following items are required:
l
You must have access to a computer running Microsoft Windows 7 or greater. The computer must also have
an Ethernet port, which you use to connect the computer to the HAL device (either directly or via an Eth-
ernet network via a shielded CAT 5e cable). This connection is necessary for using the Halogen software to
load configuration information into the device and also for monitoring detailed status information. Note that
some status information is visible on the hardware itself.
l
You must have administrative rights to install the Halogen software, but you do not need administrative
rights to run the software.
l
Most RADs require two, three, or four-gang standard switchboxes (for installation into a wall). A DR1
requires a one-gang switchbox, while a DR2 and DR3 require two-gang switchboxes. Switchboxes used for
both RADs and DRs must have a minimum depth of 2 1/4" (57 mm).
