you perform the upgrade before you begin installing the FactoryTalk AssetCentre server.
To install the FactoryTalk AssetCentre server software:
1. Log on to your server computer as an administrator or as a user with administrative
privileges.
2. Insert the FactoryTalk AssetCentre installation disc into your computer.
3. The setup program should start automatically. If it does not, open the FactoryTalk
AssetCentre disc in My Computer and then run the Setup.exe program.
4. Click Install FactoryTalk AssetCentre Server.
The Install FactoryTalk AssetCentre Server window opens. The installer searches the
computer for required components and displays the results in this window. The
installer will not attempt to install components that already exist on the computer.
Components that will be installed are indicated with a computer icon and a checked
box. You cannot select or clear the check boxes in this window.
5. Click Start to begin the installation process.
6. Follow the on-screen installation instructions for the components that need to be
installed. The following sections provide more information about installing these
components.
The following components, listed on the Install FactoryTalk AssetCentre Server window,
are checked for and installed or configured during the server installation:
 Windows Installer 3.1 v2. If this component is not already installed on your
computer, the setup program will install it. Follow the on-screen installation
instructions. If you are prompted to restart when the installation is complete, close
If you are also installing the FactoryTalk AssetCentre client or agent on the server computer, and
you want to use the CPR 9 SR 6 version of RSLinx Enterprise, you must also use the CPR 9 SR 6
version of FactoryTalk Services Platform. If this is a first-time installation and FactoryTalk
Services Platform is not already installed on the computer, the installation program will install the
CPR 9 SR 6 version of FactoryTalk Services Platform.
If you see a red “X” next to one or more components, this means that the installer cannot
determine whether the component should be installed. Contact Technical Support using the
contact information provided on the copyright page at the beginning of this guide.
The installation of some components may require you to restart your computer. If this is the
case and the setup program has not finished installing all of the necessary components, the
setup program will restart the next time you log on to your computer.
