The following sections of this chapter provide installation instructions for these
components. Each installation automatically starts after the previous one.
If the computer already has the FactoryTalk AssetCentre server or client installed on it,
then the computer will already have everything installed except the FactoryTalk
AssetCentre Disaster Recovery agent, the FactoryTalk AssetCentre Agent Host, and
RSLogix 5000 Compare. 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 Disaster Recovery agent” on page 53 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 the agent 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.
If installing on the
server:
Skip to step 4 to
install RSLinx
Classic.
If installing on a
client:
Skip to step 18 to
install patches.
