This is the TruVision Navigator Quick Start Guide. This

document provides basic instructions for installing and using

TruVision Navigator.

Installation Options

TruVision Navigator is made up of 3 components:

• Client
• Services
• Database

The TruVision Navigator architecture is flexible enough to allow

all 3 of these components to co-exist on the same PC (i.e. a

single Windows 7 machine) in small-scale environments.

As well, TruVision Navigator allows each of these 3

components to operate on separate machines (i.e. a virtual

server for Services, a dedicated database machine for

Database, and multiple PCs distributed on the network hosting

Clients) for large- scale, distributed environments.

There are 2 installation options for TruVision Navigator:

Standalone Model - This installation option allows the
Client, the Database, and the Services to be located
on the same machine. The one limitation is that no
other Clients on the network can connect to the
database on this machine. This installation option is
ideal for small, standalone systems.

Multi-Client Model (i.e. Client/Server) - This
installation option allows the Client, the Database,
and the Services to be located on the same or
separate machines. This option requires Microsoft’s
Internet Information Services (IIS) (or Cassini if the
operating system in use is Windows XP.) for
communication between the multiple Clients and the
shared Database. This installation option is ideal for
larger systems with many geographically dispersed
users, PCs, and recording devices.

Note: Refer to Navigator v5.0 User Manual to see
instructions on Microsoft IIS setup.

Whatever installation option you choose, the core features and

functions of TruVision Navigator remain the same.

You will need Administrator’s rights on the machine to install

the application, but the software will be available to all users

who successfully log on to a Windows account on that

machine.

Installation

To install TruVision Navigator on your computer, do the

following:

1. Place the TruVision Navigator setup.exe on the desktop of

the PC.

2. Launch the InstallShield Wizard by double-clicking the

TruVision Navigator setup.exe to begin the installation.

Note:

TruVision Navigator will look for the application

prerequisites and notify you of any actions to be taken.

3. The Install Shield Wizard will auto-run to show the

installation instructions. Follow these instructions to
completion.

4. Reboot your machine for the installation to complete by

clicking on the Finish button.

5. A TruVision Navigator icon will be placed on your desktop

and in your Start Menu to access the application.
