InTouch 2012 (10.5) Managed Installation

Pre-Requisites

This section describes the hardware and software system requirements for installing ArchestrA System Platform 2012 products.

 

Operating System and Software Requirements

Before you begin the installation, you should check Wonderware's OS Configuration matrix on the the Wonderware Support site at www.wonderware.com/support

(Access to the Wonderware support site requires a one time registration.  You will need your Customer First Contract number and a corporate email address; use of a non-corporate email address such as Gmail or Yahoo will limit your access)

 

The installation program analyzes the software installed on your computer and lists any software that is required and is not currently installed.

 

Note: At the start of the installation, the prerequisites check is system-specific rather than product-specific.

The following prerequisites, if not already present on your system, will be installed by the ArchestrA System Platform installation program:

 

• Windows Installer 4.5

• Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1

The installation program installs both system-specific and product-specific prerequisites. You do not have to exit from the installation program to install the prerequisite software.
 

Important: If you are using Windows Server 2008 R2 operating system, the .NET Framework feature must be enabled before you run the installation.

To enable the .NET Framework feature
In Control Panel, open Administrative Tools
Open Server Manager, and then click Features
In .NET Framework 3.5.1 Features, select the .NET Framework 3.5.1 check box. Click Next.
Click Add Features to start the wizard.
In the features list, select the .NET Framework 3.5.1 Features check box.

Detailed Steps

Installing Wonderware InTouch HMI for a Managed Environment

 

Performing the InTouch HMI Managed Installation

 

Before you start installing InTouch HMI, you should have a clear idea whether you want to develop, deploy, and publish your own applications, or require only the InTouch run time, to run applications already created and deployed.

 

The following procedure will guide you through the installation, with information specific to the InTouch HMI.

 

To install the InTouch HMI

 

1. Insert the installation DVD into the computer’s DVD drive
 

2. Using Windows Explorer, manually start the installation by double-clicking setup.exe on the DVD
 

3. Follow the prompts to commence the installation and to install system prerequisites, as necessary
 

 

 

Click Install Prerequisites to install any prerequisites identified by the InTouch 2012 R2 installer.

 

 

When the prerequisites installation is complete, you will be prompted to approve a restart.

 

 

 

4. The installation program prompts you to select an installation type: either product-based selection or installation by computer roles. As you are installing a single product—InTouch HMI—click the product-based selection as your installation type.

 

 

5. Choose the components you want to install. 

 

 

a.    If you choose InTouch Run Time Only, the following will be installed:
 

                        ▪InTouch Run Time

                        ▪InTouch documentation

                        ▪Alarm DB Logger

                        ▪FS Gateway (as a silent installation)

b.If you choose InTouch Development and Run Time, the following will be installed:
 

                        ▪All items listed under step a in these instructions.

                        ▪Application Server Bootstrap, IDE, Galaxy Repository, SQL Server 2008 Express with SSMSE, and Application Server documentation

                        ▪InTouch sample applications

 

 

The components being installed are displayed.  Note that the required storage space is also displayed.  If you want to customize the installation such as excluding documentation, you can check the, “Customize Installation” check box. Otherwise, simply click the Next button.

 

 

6.When the installation prompts you to verify your selection, you have the opportunity to customize your installation by clicking the Customize Installation button.

 

 

a.    If you choose InTouch Run Time Only, the following will be installed:

                        ▪ InTouch sample applications

                        ▪ Additional InTouch Supplemental Components: InTouch SPC Pro and InTouch 16 pen trend

8.Follow the subsequent installation steps to:
 

a. Accept the End User License Agreement.

 

 

 

b. Create a new ArchestrA user account, or specify an existing account.

 

 

If the account you are using for Wonderware off-node communications already exists, uncheck the "Create Local Account" check box.

 

If the password policy for the account that you have entered allows or requires the password to be changed, you will receive a popup message.  You can simply click the "Yes" button, but realize that if the password is changed at some point after installation, you may need to run a utility from Start > All Programs > Wonderware Common called "Change Network Account Utility" to reset your password.

 

 

 

c. Install any prerequisites not yet met. The installation checks your system, lists the missing prerequisites, and installs them for you.

9.The installation proceeds to completion. You must restart your system when the installation is complete.



After installation, you will be guided through configuration of SQL Server.  If you select SQL Server authentication, you will need the sa account password.

Licensing

After installation of InTouch, the product license must be installed.  See the separate document InTouch 2012 (v10.5) License Installation Guide for details.
