1. Installation from CD-ROM
Insert the CD. Depending on your computer’s set-up, the installation program may start
automatically.
If it does not, you need to locate the set-up program on the root
directory of the CD:
Double-click the icon to start the set-up procedure.
2. Installation from self-extracting executable
Locate the executable file and double-click its icon to start the set-up procedure. The installation
procedure will now guide you through the set-up process.
NOTE
: There is an on-line ‘Help’ that is delivered with the CompactDesigner software, including
a ‘Quick Guide’, which gives detailed step-by-step instructions on the setting-up and use of the
system.
4.4 Software
License
The set-up program requires you to enter a valid software license serial number.
The first time you run the set-up program, the serial number will be set to a dummy value:
CV0000-0-0000-00000000-00000000.
Use this default value to calculate the machine ID.
The serial number is based on a unique ID of the target computer. To obtain a full license, you
will need to run the set-up program once to calculate the ID, which must be sent to your
distributor for a license serial number to be generated.
When you have received the serial number for your machine, run the set-up program again.
The serial number must be entered exactly to allow set-up to continue.
The set-up program will not allow you to continue until a valid license serial number has been
entered.
Depending on the type of software license purchased, you will now have either CompactControl
or CompactDesigner loaded on your PC.
