The most common reasons Management Suite does not work are: | |||
# Not installing the software as an administrator, | |||
# Not disabling third party antivirus during installation, | |||
# Not plugging in the carillon to the PC during software installation so the driver can be properly installed with the software, | |||
# Starting Management Suite too soon after installation before the drivers are properly installed for the carillon. | |||

Occasionally, the first use of Management Suite after the installation will fail to properly recognize the carillon device drivers. Close the program and reboot the PC to reset this error. | |||
