Full PC Software Installation Procedures

Installing Windows NT

Overview

You must install Windows NT on your PC before you can install and
run the ProcessLogix Server software. If Windows NT is already installed
on your PC, skip to Installing Service Pack 6a for Windows NT 4.0 on
page 3-9.

The current requirement is Windows NT version 4.0 (English [USA]
default) with Service Pack 6a, Internet Explorer 5.01, and MDAC 2.1.
The Windows NT software is a licensed product of Microsoft
Corporation. A copy of Service Pack 6a, Internet Explorer 5.01 and
MDAC 2.1 are included on the ProcessLogix R320.0 software CD for
your convenience.

The Windows NT software will guide you through the following phases
of installation in the order listed.

Starting Windows NT installation

Setting up Windows NT

Installing TCP/IP networking software

Setting the date and time

Setting up the display driver

Creating an emergency repair disk

ATTENTION

!

We define a “clean” PC as one that has never had
ProcessLogix Software installed on it or that has had
the ProcessLogix software, including the database,
completely removed from it. It is equivalent to a new
out-of-the-box PC or one whose hard drive has been
cleaned/erased.

IMPORTANT

If the Windows NT boot disks are not available to you,
contact Rockwell Automation Technical Support for
more information. Refer to Rockwell Automation
Technical Support in the Preface.
