FactoryTalk AssetCentre Agent installer
See “Installing FactoryTalk AssetCentre Machine Edition software” on page 13 for the steps to
get to this part of the installation.
After installing RSLinx Enterprise software, the setup program starts the installation for
the FactoryTalk AssetCentre agent software. Agents are programs that perform certain
scheduled operations, such as Disaster Recovery and searches.
To install the FactoryTalk AssetCentre agent:
1. Follow the on-screen instructions.
When finished, there may be a short delay before you see the RSLogix 5000 Compare
installer start.
RSLogix 5000 Compare installer
See “Installing FactoryTalk AssetCentre Machine Edition software” on page 13 for the steps to
get to this part of the installation.
To be able to perform compares between RSLogix 5000 projects, the Disaster Recovery
agent uses version 3.0 or later of the RSLogix 5000 Compare utility.
To install the RSLogix 5000 Compare utility:
1. Follow the on-screen instructions.
2. If you have RSLogix 5000 software installed on this computer, you can add a
Compare option to the RSLogix 5000 Tools menu. (This requires version 13 or later
of RSLogix 5000.) To do this, select the Add Compare Tool to RSLogix 5000 Tools
menu check box. Click Next.
3. On the Select Installation Folder screen, you can choose where the compare utility is
installed. By default, the utility is installed in the C:\Program Files\Rockwell
Software\RSLogix 5000 Compare v2 folder (the folder name was not updated to v3
for this release). You can change this folder by typing a new path in the Folder field,
or by clicking the Browse button.
4. Click Next.
5. Continue to follow the on-screen instructions.
The Select Installation Folder screen also asks whether you want to install the compare utility
for yourself or for everyone who uses the computer. Select Everyone. This is very important
to the proper functioning of the agent.
