Change VTS Compatibility Mode Property to Windows XP

Method A (Primary): 32-bit SystemMethod B (Secondary): 64-bit System

These instructions primarily apply to computers running the CCI interface software on a Windows® 7 operating system with a 32-bit system-type.

If your computer has a 64-bit system-type, refer to Method B, before attempting Method A.

Note: If Method B, which includes the primary instructions for com-puters running the CCI interface software on a Windows® 7 operating system with a 64-bit system-type, does not resolve the CCI software start and operating issues, Method A is then recommended as a secondary alternative.

On some Windows® 7 operating systems the CCI interface software may not start or operate properly. This may cause an error message stating there is an error in the CPS DNP Layer and prompt the user to close the program.

If this issue occurs when launching the CCI interface software for the CL-6 voltage regulator control it is recommended the compatibility mode property of the VTS.exe file be changed.

Follow these instructions to change the compatibility mode property of the VTS.exe file in the Windows® 7 operating sys-tem, so that it runs in compatibility mode for the Windows® XP operating system.

1. Open a Windows Explorer browser and navigate to the location of the VTS.exe file.

• The default location is: C:\CL6\Software\source\VTS.

Method A

2. Right-click on the VTS.exe file and select Properties from the resulting drop-down menu.

3. Select the Compatibility tab in the Properties window.

4. In the Compatibility mode section proceed as follows:

A. Select Windows XP (Service Pack 3) from the drop-down list.

B. Check the “Run this program in compatibility mode for” checkbox.

C. Click the Apply button.

D. Click on the OK button.

5. Launch the CCI interface software. Refer to Service InformationS225-11-2CL-6SeriesMicroprocessor-BasedRegulatorControlCooperControlInterface4.0UsersGuide for additional information.

If the error message stating there is an error in the CPS DNP Layer appears and prompts the user to close the pro-gram, refer to Method B section in this manual for a sec-ondary procedure.

If neither method resolves the issue, contact your Cooper Power Systems representative.
