installation directory.

17. The installation program installs the Windows Firewall Configuration Utility. The
Firewall Configuration program then runs to automatically modify the Windows
Firewall settings to allow the following Emonitor components to operate: Emonitor
OPC server and OPC enumerator, SQL Server, DCOM, Enlive, and the Emonitor
Online programs (Enwatch/6600 Online Data, Online Data Console, Create Loadfile,
Load and Unload). Then the DCOM Security configuration program runs to complete
the modifications.
18. The upgrade is nearly complete. Select Yes, I want to restart my computer now and
click OK to restart your computer. The Emonitor software upgrade is now complete.
19. Install the EDS files. Emontior 3.70 works with the new XM module firmware. See
Installing the EDS files on page 19.
Restructuring the database
After any upgrade, you must restructure the database. This adds the necessary data and
structure information to your current database, allowing you to run the new version of the
program. When you start Emonitor, the restructure program automatically starts if it is
needed. Follow these steps the first time you start Emonitor after performing an upgrade.
You can choose a different directory in which to install Emonitor, but the previous installation
will no longer work. The installation program will not upgrade your previous installation or
install a new database.
The message “The Windows Firewall configuration interface is unavailable” may appear if
the Windows Firewall is disabled. If you are using some other software or hardware firewall,
you may need to manually configure it to allow the Emonitor programs to communicate.
Make sure you follow these steps before restructuring your database.
1. Back up your databases before upgrading to the latest version (see Backing up your data on
page 32).
2. Make sure no users are connected to the database.
