DMC-3425 Chapter 2 Getting Started 13
Using Galil Software for Windows
In order for the Windows software to communicate with a Galil controller, the controller must be
registered in the Windows Registry. To register a controller, you must specify the model of the
controller, the communication parameters, and other information. The registry is accessed through the
Galil software, such as WSDK or DMCSmartTerm.
The registry window is equipped with a button to Add a New Controller, change the Properties of an
existing controller, Delete a controller, or Find an Ethernet controller.
Use the New Controller button to add a new entry to the Registry. Use the Properties button to
change the properties of a current controller. For a new registration, you will need to supply the Galil
Controller type. The controller model number must be entered. If you are changing an existing
controller, this field will already have an entry. Pressing the down arrow to the right of this field will
reveal a menu of valid controller types. Once the DMC-3425 has been selected, there is a choice for
either Serial or Ethernet communication, as shown below. Select Serial communication.
