I NSTALLATION
NOTE: The term “LS Software,” referred to throughout this manual, refers to both VisionWorksLS
and Doc-ItLS (Life Science) software packages.
1. Installation requires the user’s complete attention throughout the process. It is not
configured to be an unattended installation.
2. Log on to the computer with an account that has administrative privileges. It is best if the
administrator is present during installation so that certain decisions may be made during
the installation process. These installation instructions will assume that the installer
has administrative privileges.
3. Check for the presence of existing UVP software from Control Panel > Add Remove
Programs. If a previous version of Life Sciences (LS) Software is loaded on the
computer, uninstall the previous version. Call UVP for specific uninstallation instructions.
4. Insert the LS Software CD into the drive. Installation will begin automatically. If it does
not, navigate to the folder LS Main on the CD and click on setup.exe.
5. Click on the Install button to install the software.
6. Click to accept the license agreement and proceed through all of the software prompts
until a window appears which classifies the setup as a network or single access license.
Continue to Single-User instructions if LS Software will only be used on one computer, or
see Network-User instructions for a network-based LS Software installation.
