Installation and Commissioning Manual
After these initial checks, the installation welcomes you to the CAP 501 installation.
Thereafter, the CAP 501 product license agreement is displayed, explaining you the
terms under which the product may be used. Once you have accepted license
agreement terms by continuing the installation, a purely informative system
information dialog box, based on the current version information, informs you about
the current status of CAP 501 on your computer.
Next, you enter the 'Select' dialog box, which is the main dialog box of the
installation. Provided, that the current version is the same that you are installing and
you are using the suggested destination drive, you can select any combination of the
available installation options. These options are the same as described in the section
'Contents', page 8. Otherwise, the installation forces to install all the available options
to the selected destination drive. You can change the destination drive by means of the
'Select Destination Drive' dialog box, which you access from the 'Select' dialog box.
Once you are satisfied with the settings you have specified, you can start the actual
software installation from the main dialog box. Notice that, prior to that your
computer has not been modified in any way.
If you install the Base System, the installation prompts you for the following
information:
•
Password for the MicroSCADA user account. Whether this MicroSCADA user
account information is requested depends on your computers configuration.
•
The Windows NT user groups, to which you wish to grant the rights to start and
stop the MicroSCADA service on your computer.
Finally, when the installation has completed, you are notified about it. Depending on
the status of some of the installed files, you may be requested to reboot your
computer.
After the installation has been completed, you will find a program folder named 'CAP
501 2.0.0' which contains the icons for using CAP 501 software. Also, a shortcut to
this program folder is added onto your operating system desktop.
