| Notes about Installation |
Do not uninstall your currently installed GP-PRO/PB
III or Pro-Server with Pro-Studio software. This update module overwrites
only the program codes that needs to be modified. It does not install a
completely new version of the program.
Prior to installing an Update module, be sure to quit all applications
and resident programs (virus detection, etc.). |
|
| Notes about
Pro-Server with Pro-Studio Update Module |
| 1. |
Prior to installing the Pro-Server Update modules, be sure to install
Pro-Server Ver. 4.0. The Update modules cannot be installed if Pro-Server
Ver. 4.0 is not already installed. |
| 2. |
To use Factory Gateway units, driver files for the type of device/PLC
your are using are needed.
Please follow the driver file's installation instructions
to install this software. |
| |
| During the Pro-Server Update module installation,
the installer will ask, “Is GP-PRO/PB III for Windows
installed in your computer?” After reading the following,
choose [Yes] or [No]. |
When GP-PRO/PB III for Windows Ver.
6.0 or later is installed |
| --> choose
[Yes] |
When
GP-PRO/PB III for Windows is installed using
the "standard installation", all
the necessary driver files have also been
installed. As a result, these Update modules
will skip the driver file installation.
When you are asked to designate the folder location where GP-PRO/PB III
for Windows is installed, select that folder. The Factory Gateway Configuration
Tool will then use the driver files in that folder. |
| |
Caution: If, by accident, the wrong folder is designated
for GP-PRO/PB III for Windows, Update module
installation will not proceed until the folder
where GP-PRO/PB III for Windows is installed
is correctly designated.
When GP-PRO/PB III for Windows is installed
using the "standard installation",
the destination folder location is [C:\Program
files\pro-face\ProPBWin\]. |
When GP-PRO/PB III for Windows Ver. 6.0 or
later is NOT installed |
| --> choose
[No] |
Since
no driver files have been installed yet on
the PC, these Update modules will install
driver files in Pro-Server's installation
folder.
The Factory Gateway Configuration Tool will
then use the driver files in that folder. |
| |
Important: When GP-PRO/PB III for Windows is installed
using the "custom installation",
and the driver files required for Factory
Gateway operation are not installed, choose
[No].
If, prior to making a [Yes] or [No] selection
you immediately install the protocol files
required for GP-PRO/PB III for Windows, you
can choose [Yes] here. |
