About the installation
Setting up the FactoryTalk AssetCentre server requires installing and configuring several
software packages. These are listed on the FactoryTalk AssetCentre installation menu.
The server installation step in the menu launches a series of software installations and
utilities as illustrated in the diagram below. The yellow numbers in the diagram show the
order of the steps.
When checking the patches on all FactoryTalk AssetCentre client and agent computers, rather
than repeating these steps on each computer, you can select Network Computer in the Patch
File Validator utility to check each of the computers in your FactoryTalk AssetCentre system.
