  • From the Teradata System Emulation Tool window (main window), click Tools > Define Data Source.
  • From the Windows desktop, click Start > All Programs > ODBC > 32‑bit ODBC Administrator.
  • The ODBC Data Source Administrator dialog box appears and displays the User DSN tab by default.

    2 Click Add.

    3 Under the Name column, select Teradata.

    4 Click Finish.

    The ODBC Driver Setup for Teradata Database dialog box appears.

    5 Enter information in the boxes.

    Refer to ODBC Driver for Teradata User Guide B035-2509 for assistance.
