Accessing ACU in the online environment
To access, install, and launch ACU in the online environment, you must download the ACU executables. All
three formats have separate executables.
Starting with version 8.28.13.0, ACU Scripting is now a standalone application that is distributed with the
ACU CLI application. In ACU versions prior to 8.28.13.0, the scripting executable was provided with the
ACU GUI component.
Users familiar with the previous versions of ACU Scripting must now install the ACU CLI application to obtain
the scripting executable. The new ACU scripting executable (hpacuscripting) replaces the former executable
(cpqacuxe) in all scripts.
For information about the minimum monitor settings and the version numbers of supported operating systems
and browsers, see the README.txt file provided with the executable.
