Installing XP
Administrator
Software
To install the XP Administrator, choose the ‘Run’ command from your Windows
Start menu. Run the XPADMIN.EXE file that you downloaded from the Cybex
FTP Website. Be sure to include the correct path to your XPADMIN file (example:
C:\XP Administrator\XPADMIN.EXE). The following files will be downloaded to
your system:
XPadmintool.exe - This is the XP Administrator program which is opened by
clicking on the XP4000 System Admin icon on your desktop. This icon is
automatically created when the XPADMIN program is run.
DAO support (Database Access object) - During the download process, you will
be prompted to answer whether “Access” is loaded on your computer. If you
answered no to this question, the software will be installed at this time.
Installation DLLs/Freeware Utilities - This contains up-to-date versions of
freeware programs MFC42 (Windows support program), PumpKIN (TFTP Server),
and Klog (Network Event log). The PumpKIN and Klog programs are run on
request. These programs may be needed during your installation/configuration of
the XP Administrator.
When installation is complete, the XP4000 System Admin icon will appear on your
desktop. Double click this icon to open the XP Administrator software.
Before you can import server/user configurations into your XP Administrator or
export new configurations from XP Administrator, you must have at least one
current XPDU and XPIA module in your XP4000 system. Follow the steps in the
next sections to ensure that you have properly installed and configured modules
before continuing with the XP Administrator software.
