Configuring FactoryTalk Metrics LE: New vs. Update

This Administrator's Guide assumes you are configuring FactoryTalk Metrics LE for the
first time on a new system. If you are upgrading an existing FactoryTalk Metrics LE or
FactoryTalk Metrics application, all of the steps in this chapter are not required. The table
below outlines the necessary steps for three different scenarios — a new install, an update
from FactoryTalk Metrics LE 8.0, and an update from FactoryTalk Metrics 9.0. In the
update scenarios, some steps are only required if you intend to modify your existing
application to add more workcells using the FactoryTalk Metrics LE Configuration Tool.
