Stand Alone Installation          Network Installation

You can install any of In-Quiz-It's products as stand alone on a single computer, or networked, where all users share the same data files from a central file server. Please note that the Server doesn't have to be "Server-Class" hardware (it helps...) but can be the fastest workstation in your possession.

Stand Alone - Single Computer

• Insert the Program CD into the CD drive - if AutoDetect is enabled, the installation will begin automatically.

• If nothing happens for about a minute, explore the CD for the setup program which will be the application name and version number, followed by ".exe"


( For example "Utrapit4001.exe", "PestClick151.exe", etc... )

• Double-Click on this file, and the installation will begin.

• Accept the default directory for installation.
  (If you are upgrading, the install wizard will locate/display the proper directory for you)

New Install

• Select the correct module type for this installation (if more than 1 is available):

  • PMP's Main Office, or In-House Mgmt - select "MultiPlant".

  • PMP's Branch Office, or Off-Site Inspector - Select "Remote Inspector".

  • A facility being serviced by an outside PMP - Select "Remote Account". (Formerly "Remote Plant")

  • District/Regional/Corporate offices - Select "Corporate".

Upgrade

• Do not select "Install New Module" if you are upgrading the same module type.
• Do select "Install New Module" if you desire installing a different module type.

• After the program has been installed, additional required support files will be installed:

  • Visual Basic Runtime - (will upgrade from prior versions)

  • ActiveSync - (will upgrade from prior versions)

Networked - File Server

Prepare the Server:

Corporate Data Center:

• Have a network administrator perform the initial software installation (from a workstation), as directories will need to be created on the server - in most cases only "Admins" are authorized to do this.
  Optionally, the Admins can just create the directory structure and relay the information to the desktop support department - whatever is easiest...

• Create a directory or folder on a shared drive, such as "InQuizIt", then beneath this create a different subdirectory for each of In-Quiz-It's products being installed, such as "UTrapIt", "UTracIt", or "UTermIt".

• Remember the directory structure as you'll need this for the workstation's software installation.

Prepare the Workstation:

• If one doesn't exist, map a drive letter that points to the above server's shared resource, and remember the drive letter chosen as you'll need this during  installation. For example, say Drive "F:" maps to your company's public data storage area.

Install the Software:

• Run the installation program (for example: "UTrapIt35.exe").

• Select the installation location (local hard drive) where the executable files will reside. This defaults to "C:\Program Files\ModuleType\", where module type is MultiPlant, Remote, etc...

• Click the "Network Install" checkbox when it appears - this will activate a network data path entry field, complete with a browse button.

• Using the above example of "F:" drive being mapped to your server's shared resource - click the browse button and select drive "F:" from the drive selection list, then browse to the correct directory and select it.
  Using the above examples for installing U-Trap-It, your network data path would be "F:\InQuizIt\UTrapIt\".

• Repeat the workstation preparation for all desired (and licensed) workstations, and install the software using the same network data path.
