Installing the program (networks)
Check with the Network administrator before attempting to install the Network key software - they may need to set security and access rights.
Updating from earlier versions of the program - If there is an earlier version of the program installed we recommend that you install the new version in a different directory and run the two versions in parallel for a short changeover period. Read carefully any separate notes describing how to move data from the old version to the new.
Do NOT use these instructions for Windows Terminal Sever install

Insert
the CD-ROM (at the Server or from a Workstation)
(See below if the install is via a download)
The setup program should start automatically.
(If the setup program does not run open the CD-ROM drive with Windows Explorer. Double click on the program setup.exe (this is in the root directory of the CD-ROM).
A series of dialog screens take you through the setup procedure. Follow the instructions carefully.
At the dialog: Choose Destination Location
Enter the path on the Server to install the software to.
At the dialog: Select Components a list of items to install is displayed
Program files
System files
TEC Cabinet Library V2.01
Metric parameter templates
Metric Demo data
The components 'Program files' and 'System files' are checked. Uncheck 'System files' and leave 'Program files' checked.
The other components are optional but it is often useful to have the demonstration data at the Server.
Note - installation on the Server does not create a program group for the Windows Start menu as the Optimising program does not run from the Server console (if the Optimising program is to run at the Sever console include 'System Files' in the components list BUT check with the Network Administrator before you do this).
When the Setup program is finished the Optimising program is installed on the Server.
Note - the 'client' part of the Optimising software must also be installed on each Workstation running the Optimising program
Downloads
If
the program is delivered by a download - click on the large self extracting
program V8xxxx.exe
(The exact name depends on the version). Follow the download instructions.
The distributor usually will have provided you with the appropriate authentication and their own download instructions or once the data is extracted click on the program 'setup.exe' to install the program.
