Installation Procedures
MK8000 and MM8000 solutions
The MK8000 can be an independent OPC server or run as a component of an
MM8000 management system. This document discusses the installation procedure
of the first of the two options, whereas the MM8000 ICC manual
(doc.no.A6V10062413) should be referred to about the MM8000 product installa-
tion.
MK8000 architectures
MK8000 OPC server may be set up as a single station or as a distributed system.
On a single station PC, you need to install the MK8000
Stand-Alone
software, in-
cluding the OPC server and the related configuration tools.
The same Stand-Alone software has to be installed on the main station of a distrib-
uted system, which can also include more stations, equipped with either MK8000
communication
FEP
(Front End Processor) software or OPC
Client
applications.
In the Stand-Alone station, the MK8000 requires some additional software to be al-
ready installed (pre-requisite); namely: MSDE 2000 (or SQL Express 2005 and
SQL 2005 Backward Compatibility), SQLXML 3.0, NET framework V1.1.and NET
framework V2.0. This software is provided free of charge on the DMS8000 CD.
In order to run and perform, the MK8000 software requires a hardware key (don-
gle) and a related Product Activation Key (PAK), i.e. a 16-character code.
Distributed systems may include a redundant solution (see 3.2.1.1).

Welcome screen
The DMS8000 CD provides a welcome page that guides you in the installation
process. The page appears automatically when you insert the CD. In very special
cases, if the
Autorun
option is disabled on your PC, you need to execute the Auto-
run.exe file manually in the CD main folder.
As shown in Fig. 3 below, the welcome page presents a menu including the follow-
