MONITOR AFx™ Director V4.1 User's Guide

500-9041 v4.1

Software Installation for a

Fresh/New System

1) Install the new software

from the CD:

•

Insert the CD-ROM into the drive, and wait

for the 'auto-run' installation screen to

appear.

(If the 'auto-run' screen does not appear, eject & re-

insert the CD, or use the Windows Explorer to run

the "

Setup.exe

" program file on your CD.)

•

Respond to the screens that appear, entering

any required information, and making

selections that are suitable for your installation.

MS Internet Explorer v5.0 components are required by

the database engine. This is included on the CD, and

the IE5 installation will start automatically if required.

Note

: If this occurs,

you'll have to run the Director

installation again

after IE5 finishes (look for

setup.exe

in the 'root' folder on the CD).

Windows NT/2000/XP: Some stages of the

installation may take a few minutes--with only an

hour-glass displayed (be sure to let it finish).

If You are Prompted to Overwrite any existing Files: In

general, you can select "Yes" to overwrite existing files.

Exception:

If the files are indicated as 'Read-Only',

select "No".

Software Components:

Refer to the descriptions

below when deciding which software components to

install:

•

Operator Client:

For each PC to be used as a

MONITOR AFx Director workstation.

(For a multi-PC installation, install this on the

MONITOR AFx

server

PC as well.)

•

Communication Client:

For each PC to be

associated with a panel / modem connection.

(This may be used on its own, or in conjunction with

other software components.)

•

Server:

For the PC that will contain the MONITOR

AFx Director database--i.e., the 'server' (or only) PC.

Tip:

Any or all of the software components can be

selected, as applicable (although "Server" will be

selected only on

one

PC.)

Select

[Next]

[Finish]

as required to

complete the installation.

Be sure to restart your PC when prompted.

Tip:

After restarting, a "DB Generator" utility will

create a default start-up database for your

MONITOR AFx Director software.

Multi-PC (Client-Server systems): Install the

MONITOR AFx Director software on any

additional PCs.

Cyclic-ID Codes at each

client

PC: After

installing the software at each client

workstation, start the software, open

Help

About...

and jot down the "Cyclic-ID" code, as

this will be needed to 'tell' the server to allow

database access for each of these

workstations.

This is required for the MONITOR AFx Director

software, as well as the Communications software, as

applicable.

(To start the software, open the

Start

menu, select

MONITOR AFx Director V4

, followed by

Programs

and

MONITOR AFx Director

Tip:

If you prefer, you can cut-and-paste the ID codes

into "Notepad" or "MS Word", and use a floppy-disk to

transport the file to the server PC (for registration).

Panel & Software Revisions:

Beginning with v3.20,

the Monitor AFx Director software is compatible with

panel firmware v2.0 and higher (although some

features will require updating the panel firmware

and/or modules).

Associated panels must be the same rev. level, and

the Director software must typically be upgraded to

the same level or higher.

Notes: Panels

≥

V3.3

are required for IP-related

features. AFx V1.x and older panels must be

upgraded or replaced (refer to the instructions

provided with your panel upgrade kit).

Client/Server Tip

: When installing a multi-PC

system, the software is typically installed first at the

MONITOR AFx Director server, and then at the client

PCs. Note: Client PCs cannot be used until the

server is up and running, and the client PCs have

been identified to the server--as per references

below. Client-server operation is supported through

your 'activation key' and 'license-manager' software.

Director Server and Workstations:

The Director

server PC is not to be confused with your network

server PC, or any network-related components,

software, or drivers. Director Server: The

(networked) PC that includes "...Director-Server.exe",

and typically contains the database (i.e., 'closed

database' systems); Director Client-Workstation:

Any networked PC that contains the MONITOR AFx

Director main program (operator client).

Tip:

With

the applicable software installed, the Director server

PC can also be used as an operator workstation.

Activation Key: The activation key provided with

the software provides 90 days of operation with

standard features. For additional features, client-

server operation, or extended duration, you must

run the license-manager program (after installing

the software).

For details, refer to "Software

Activation and Licensing".
