The installation of PRODAVE S7 is carried out via a Windows installation

Windows.
After starting SETUP.EXE a destination path is offered for the installation which
may be changed by new input or via BROWSE.
After specifying the destination path the following installation components are
offered:
• PRODAVE S7 for Windows 95/98/NT/ME/2000
PRODAVE DLL and demonstration program for Windows
95/98/NT/ME/2000.
STEP7 Driver for Windows 95/98/NT/ME/2000
• Documentation, Online Help.
Setup automatically generates a PRODAVE program group with a
demonstration program and STEP7 tool to set up the used interface under
Windows 95/98/ME/NR/2000.
The drivers to be used can be loaded, parameterised and linked into the
system by means of the STEP7 tool PG/PC-interface parameterisation
(S7EPATSX.EXE). After correct installation the drivers are automatically
activated every time Windows 95/98/NT/ME/2000 is started.
