If you are installing the client on the FactoryTalk AssetCentre server computer, the server
computer will already have Windows Installer, Microsoft .NET Framework, FactoryTalk
Services Platform, and FactoryTalk AssetCentre Common Components installed. The
installation program automatically skips the existing components. Skip those sections in
the instructions that follow.
Installing FactoryTalk Services Platform
See “Installing the FactoryTalk AssetCentre client software” on page 39 for the steps to get to this
part of the installation.
FactoryTalk AssetCentre depends on the Rockwell Software FactoryTalk Services
Platform to function. If the platform is not installed on your computer (or if the correct
version is not installed), the setup program will install it. If you have a previous version of
the platform installed, you may need to uninstall it before continuing (the setup program
will inform you if this is the case).
1. Follow the on-screen installation instructions to install the platform. If FactoryTalk
Services Platform 2.10.00 or later is already installed on your computer, go to step 4.
By default, all members of the Administrators group on the computer on which you are installing
the FactoryTalk Services Platform are added to the Administrators group in the FactoryTalk
Directory.

server:
