Installing or Upgrading the Applications
All the necessary applications have been preinstalled and configured at the
factory. However, you may have to upgrade some applications when new
versions become available or to reinstall them.
Note: All of your product packs have been placed on the D drive for reinstallation
purposes if necessary.
Note: Only administrator-level users can install software under Windows XP.
Each time you purchase a new module, it could be a good idea to verify
that the most recent Update Manager application is installed on your unit.
When updates are available for an application, you will need to download
them from Internet, either directly on your unit or on a computer. The
update files must be copied to the location that has been specified for the
deployment packages in Update Manager.

If you ever need to reinstall Update Manager on your unit, ensure
that:
The installation files for Update Manager remain on your unit.
Otherwise, it will not be possible to install new versions of this
application later.
You choose the folder containing the Update Manager
installation files carefully. If you move or rename this folder, you
will have to manually browse for the modified folder when you
want to install new versions of this application.
