2.0 Install Doors.NET Software
When installing Doors.NET software you must be logged into your Host PC as an Administrator, or
have your user permissions elevated to Administrator.
1. Installation via DVD is the quickest and easiest way to perform an installation. Insert the DVD
and the Auto-Run program begins.
2. Click “Install Software” to begin the installation.
3. Once started, the installer performs a quick file verification and configures the file set for the
installation.
4. The welcome window then appears displaying the software title, version, and the detected
Windows operating system. If your PC does not have an accepted operating system the installer
displays a disqualification window and exits the program.
5. Next is the license agreement. Keri recommends you read through the agreement in its entirety,
then enter a tick in the confirmation box to accept the terms. Click the Next button.
6. Enter the user registration information and organization information.
7. The hardware selection page is next. Select “Keri PXL Controllers.”
8. Then comes the Installation Type selection page.
- Default option will install the Application Server, the PXL Gateway, and an Administrative
client.
- Second option is a Basic Install and will only install the client.
- Third option will install the client with the PXL Gateway.
- Fourth option, Custom Install, will allow custom installation where you select exactly what
components you wish to include. Choose the “Custom Install” and click Next.
9. The minimum selections you will need to make for the custom installation are: the Administrative
Client plus the Application Server, Gateway PXL Series, and the Archive Services. If you will be
adding IP cameras for recorded video then also select “Video Client” and “Gateway Video.” Click
Next when you have made your selections.
10. The review page is next. Review this list carefully as it explicitly states what will and will not be
included in the installation. The items to be installed will be listed on the left in green, the items
that will NOT be installed will be listed on the right in red. If the information shown is not correct,
click Back and review the installation selections.
11. If all is correct check the confirmation box and click Next.
12. Now the Destination Folder page is displayed. This is the default folder into which the
Doors.NET software and other supporting files will be installed. Most systems will use this
default directory: C\Keri\DoorsNET. Keri recommends using this default folder for your
installation. This page will also display the required Hard Disk space and the disk space available.
13. Now comes the Shortcuts page. Select the types of program shortcuts to be installed on the host
PC.
14. The final installation screen will list an SQL Server if it is detected on the PC. You will be
presented with three options:
-
Install the database in this computer – this is the default option.
- Scan the Network for an existing SQL Server – this option requires the network folder always
be available for the PC/Doors.NET program.
- Install the Application Server only – this will require a manual installation of the database
using the InstallDHSDB program which is also installed into the C:\Keri\DoorsNET on a
default installation.
15. Click Next once more when you are ready to proceed with the installation.
