Software Installation & Initial Connection
Install the CD-based Software onto Microsoft Windows
1.
Put the PowerSync CD in the drive.
2.
Open the CD in Windows Explorer, and then run the file named
Sifos_PSA_Installer_#_#_##.exe
,
where
#_#_##
is the version number of the software
.
After a moment the installation wizard appears.
(Note: The PSA Software installer will automatically open from PSA Version 3.1 and later CD’s.)
3.
Click
Next
. If Tcl/Tk version 8.4.5 or later is not installed, a dialog box will appear, asking if you want to
install Tcl/Tk version 8.4.5. This version of Tcl/Tk or later is required. If this dialog box does not appear,
skip step 4 and go to step 5.
4.
If Tcl/Tk version 8.4.5 or later is already installed, click
No
and go to the step 5. If you need this version
of Tcl/Tk installed, click
Yes
and follow the instructions on the screen to install Tcl/Tk. When the Tcl/Tk
installation is complete, the installation wizard appears again.
Note
:
Some products that install Tcl may
not install Tk. The installer will check for the installation of Tk as well as Tcl.
5.
The PSA Installer may also prompt to install an editor program
AnyEdit
for PowerShell. This program
is recommended for those that plan to do test script development for PowerShell since it knows all
PowerShell command and global variable names and will provide many other productivity features of a
textual program editor for TCL.
6.
Follow the instructions on the screen to complete installation of the PSA software.
Install the CD-based Software onto Linux Workstation
PowerSync Software requires TCL/TK 8.4.5 (or later) to operate. TCL/TK should be installed on the Linux
Workstation separate from PowerSync Software. TCL/TK for Linux and Unix is available from the ActiveState
website, and usually available through Linux distribution specific package managers. TCL/TK must be installed
such that the user has Execute permissions to the TCL “/bin” directory so that the commands “tclsh8.4” and
“wish8.4” will open the respective TCL consoles.
1.
Put the PowerSync CD in the drive.
2.
Establish read-write permissions for the
/usr/local/
directory path
3.
Copy the files
psa_installer.sh
and
Sifos_PSA_Archive_#_#_##.tar
(where #_#_## is the PSA version
number) from the directory
/Linux Installation Files
to the user’s
<HOME>/bin
/ directory path.
4.
Open a terminal an execute the shell command “
sh psa_install.sh
”.
5.
Read-write permissions to the
/usr/local/
directory path may be removed following execution of the
installer script.
6.
Desktop icons, or application links, may be set up to
PowerShell TCL
,
PowerShell WISH
, and
PSA
Interactive
. The corresponding shell scripts for each of these applications will be found in the
<HOME>/bin
/ directory path after execution of the installer script.
Refer to the
