Starting AppCenter for the first time with a Control Point PC
Before you can run AppCenter from a network-connected PC running Control Point software, you
must perform two steps:
1. Log on to AppCenter.
2. Configure a channel suite.
Logging on to AppCenter
NOTE: Your domain configuration might require that you use the syntax of machine name\user
name. For example, if you have difficulty logging on to a K2 Summit/Solo system, try logging
on as <K2 system>\GVUser.
The first time you start AppCenter, a Log On dialog box displays. Enter your user name and
password.
Once you have logged in, the Suite Properties dialog box displays.
Configuring a channel suite
You need to configure the channel suite before you can use it. To configure a channel suite, specify
the K2 source that you want to use and add its channels to a channel suite. You can add channels
from several sources to one channel suite, with a maximum of 16 channels in one channel suite.
1. At the blank Suite Properties dialog box, click the Add button. An Add Channel dialog box
displays.
2. Enter the K2 Summit/Solo system host name or IP address.
3. Click OK . A second Add Channel dialog box displays, listing the channels on the specified K2
Summit/Solo system.
4. Select the channels you want in your channel suite and click OK .
