EDSIM51

Download and Installation Instructions
 
The following installation instructions are for users running Windows or Ubuntu. However, the EdSim51DITM Simulator, because it is JavaTM based, should run on any operating system that has the Java Runtime Environment installed. Installation therefore on Linux, for example, should be similar to the steps described below.
 
Get Java
The EdSim51 Simulator was written in Java (http://www.java.com). To run the EdSim51 Simulator you must first install the J2RE (Java 2 Runtime Environment). Of course your computer may already have the J2RE installed. To find out if you have the J2RE, or to install it if you don't, click on the following button:


There are three steps to ensuring your computer has the latest Java installed:
  1. On the page that opens when you click on the above GET IT NOW button, click on the Download Now! arrow.
  2. Click on the  Download button on the new page that opens. There are two options - online and offline. They both do the same thing but online tends to be faster. For more information, click on theInstructions link on that page.
  3. When installation is complete, click on the Verify Installation button. This will test your computer to see if Java was successfully installed.
If you think Java is already on your computer, you can skip the Java installation step and test your computer for Java by clicking on the Verify Installation link
Unzip
Once you've downloaded the zip file, extract it. On most operating systems you can do this by double-clicking the zip file.
                                                 
edsim51di.zip contains a folder called lib and a JAR file called edsim51di.jar.

lib
 and edsim51di.jar must be kept together in the same location.
Launching the EdSim51 Simulator
Note: You cannot launch the simulator from within the zip file. If you try that you will probably get a Java Exception error.
 
Windows: To launch the simulator, double-click on edsim51di.jar.
Windows 7 issue: A number of Windows 7 users have reported problems with launching EdSim51. It seems Windows 7 may be hijaking JAR files. Johann N. Löfflmann has kindly provided a solution. Thanks to Ishwar Bhat for finding this solution.
