Portable systems use walk-around data collectors for collecting data, and all Emonitor
components can be installed on one computer. Online systems use networked systems that
monitor and collect data, and Emonitor can be installed on different computers to increase
efficiency. You may also use a combination of portable and online systems, and use
different computers for each part.

This section walks you through the installation step-by-step with specific information
available when needed. This section goes through a typical installation for a portable
system.

Exit any running applications before starting the Emonitor installation program.

1. From the main Autorun screen click Emonitor. Follow the instructions on the screen.

2. Select your database type at the Database Selection dialog, and then click Next.

3. Some database types ask you to confirm or select your database version. Click Next to

continue.

4. Select the XML Gateway if you want to install the Emonitor CMMS XML Gateway,

and then click Next. Most Emonitor installations do not use the XML Gateway option.

5. The next dialog shows the system requirements. If your system passes, click Next. See

Emonitor system requirements on page 1 for more information.

6. Choose the directory where you want to install Emonitor. Click Browse to change the

destination directory.

7. Select the program folder on the Start menu for Emonitor, then click Next.

8. Click Next to accept the configuration. The installation program begins copying files

to your computer.

9. 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 Setup, Online Data Console, Create Loadfile, Load
and Unload). Then the DCOM Security configuration program runs to complete the
modifications.

The Emonitor installation program requires that you reboot your computer after installing the
software.

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.
