2. When you are asked whether you want to install the FactoryTalk Administration

Console, be sure the check box is selected (you will need the console to help you
configure the FactoryTalk Directory). Continue to follow the on-screen instructions.

3. Click Finish on the InstallShield Wizard for the FactoryTalk Services Platform. If you

are prompted to restart your computer for configuration changes made to FactoryTalk
Services Platform to take effect, click No to restart later. Follow the on-screen
instructions to continue the installation.

If you have RSLinx Classic version 2.53 or later installed on your computer, the installation
program skips to step 11.

4. Click Required Steps on the RSLinx Classic Welcome Page.

5. Click Install RSLinx Classic on the Welcome to RSLinx Classic window. Click Run

on the Open File - Security Warning window. You must install RSLinx Classic to
successfully complete the RA Disaster Recovery agent installation.

RSLinx Classic allows you to connect to Rockwell Automation control hardware.
RSLinx Classic is required even if you have RSLinx Enterprise. If RSLinx Classic is
not installed on the client computer, the installation program for the FactoryTalk
AssetCentre client will install RSLinx Classic Lite. RSLinx Classic Lite does not
support connections through OPC. For more information about RSLinx Classic, see
the RSLinx Classic documentation.

If you have RSLinx Classic (version 2.54 or later) installed on your computer, you do
not need to install this component (and the FactoryTalk AssetCentre client installation
program will not ask you to install it).

6. Follow the on-screen instructions. In the Customer Information page of the

installation wizard, enter your user name, organization name, and any ten digit
number. Then click Next.

7. The Standard Setup page allows you to select the components of the software you

want to install and to change the folder where the software is installed. We advise that
you install all of the components. Change the settings on this page as desired, and then
click Next.

8. Continue following the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.

9. On the InstallShield Wizard Completed window, click Finish.

10. Click Exit on the RSLinx Classic installation menu.

If you receive a warning indicating that the software you are installing has not passed
Windows Logo testing to verify its compatibility with the Windows version, click Continue
