A set of video tutorials have been added to Version 5.1 of CSET. The DVD version includes both the regular videos and a full set of tutorials with closed captioning added. Because of size limitations, the full DVD content could not practically be downloaded from the Web. To address the size issue, two downloads are now available. The first is the application without videos, (similar to Version 5.0) and the second is the set of regular videos. To receive the closed captioning version you must request the DVD from DHS.
The two files are:
CSET51.iso (the application), and
CSETVideos.iso (the video tutorials).
Each ISO file includes the installation program. You can download, install and run the application without the videos, but you cannot run the videos without the application.
To install both the application and the videos, burn each iso file to either a physical or virtual DVD, then install the application first before the videos.
The CSET download is in a file format known as “ISO”. This file is an “image” of the equivalent files within the CSET DVD. Because of this format, it is necessary to process the download using one of the following methods:
- Mounting the File- this method loads the ISO file using utility software to make the file appear like a virtual drive with the original DVD loaded.
- Burning the file to DVD – this method uses CD/DVD-burn software and the ISO file to burn the files onto your own DVD to create a physical disk identical to the CSET original.
Either case requires a separate software utility. There are a variety of both free and purchased utility programs available through the Internet that will work with the ISO file format. As DHS does not recommend any specific application or vendor, it will be necessary for you to find a product that provides the necessary functionality. Step by step instructions for each method are provided below:
Mounting the File
- CLICK the “Download CSET” link on this page to download the ISO file for the program software.
- CLICK the “Download Video Tutorials” link on this page to download the ISO file for the video tutorials.
- SAVE the file to your hard drive of choice (i.e., your computer hard drive or USB drive) maintaining the file name and extension (.iso.)
- RUN your ISO-specific utility program that is capable of mounting the file. (If you do not have an iso utility application you will need to find and install one before continuing with these instructions.) COMPLETE the instructions within the utility software to create a virtual drive using the ISO file.
- COMPLETE Installing the CSET Program instructions.
Burning the file to CD or DVD
- CLICK the ‘Download’ button on this page to download the ISO file.
- SAVE the file to the hard drive on your computer.
- INSERT a blank, writeable DVD into the computer’s CD/DVD drive.
- RUN your DVD-burn utility program. COMPLETE the instructions on your utility program to burn the ISO image to your DVD. (If you do not have an application that can do this, then you will need to find and install one before continuing with these instructions.)
- COMPLETE Installing the CSET Program instructions.
Installing the CSET Program
- GO to the root directory of your new virtual drive or CD/DVD containing the CSET files.
- DOUBLE-CLICK the Setup.exe file to execute. This will initiate the installer program.
- COMPLETE the instructions in the installer wizard to install the CSET program.
- Repeat these steps if you are also installing the video tutorials. Remember to install the CSET program first.
- READ the material within the ReadMe document for a summary explanation of how to use the tool. Help is also available through the User Guide, screen guidance text, and general and screen specific video tutorials.
System Requirements/Troubleshooting
In order to execute CSET, the following minimum system hardware and software is required:
- Pentium dual core 2.2 GHz processor (Intel x86 compatible)
