Installing the DPoE
™
Element Manager Software
The
DPoE™
Element Manager is installed by running the setup program on the
DPoE™
Power Patch
Panel Support Tools CD-ROM, included with the
DPoE™
Power Patch Panel. Once the CD-ROM is
placed in the personal computer's CD-ROM drive, the setup program will automatically run and will give
the user the choice to install the
DPoE™
Element Manager software or choose from other selections.
When selected, the installation software will first verify the necessary support software is available on the
computer or will prompt the user to determine whether these packages should be installed along with the
DPoE™
Element Manager (refer to
Table 11: PC Minimum Requirements for DPoE™ Element Manager
for more information).
NOTE:
If the CD does not autorun, browse the root directory of the CD and double-click on
the file “Launch.exe”.
Once all required support software is installed, the installation screen will be displayed.
For security purposes, the
network operator will then be
given the opportunity to
restrict the
DPoE™
Element
Manager to the
administrator
UserName
only (default) or whether
other users of this PC can
access it. Once this selection
is made, the installation
process completes in only a
few minutes.
After the
DPoE™
Element Manager installation completes, exit the
DPoE™
Power Patch Panel Support
Tools CD, remove the CD-ROM from the CD-ROM drive, and store it in a safe place. Next, launch the
DPoE™
Element Manager application via the icon on the desktop.
The splash screen will appear. When prompted, UserName: administrator, Password: Panduit (password
is case sensitive and should be changed from this default)
NOTE:
The
DPoE
™ Power Patch Panel Support Tools CD-ROM also includes the option to
uninstall the
DPoE
™ Element Manager.
Critical updates to the support programs may occasionally come from Microsoft
Corporation. The
Windows Update
option from the PC’s START Menu can be used to
periodically check for such updates.
