EGCP-2 HMI Software Installation
The EGCP-2 Monitoring Software is located on a single compact disc. This disc
contains self-installing software required for installation of the ServLink and
EGCP-2 Monitoring Software onto a computer hard-drive operating within a
32 bit environment.
To install the software on your computer’s hard drive, turn on your computer and
wait until the Windows desktop is displayed. Insert the compact disc (CD) into
the CD drive of the computer which the installation will take place.
Go to the task bar located at the bottom of the desktop screen, and click once on
the Windows Start button. Then click on the Run option.
A dialog box will pop up and display a prompt window asking for the program you
wish to run. If you know the drive letter allocated to your CD drive type this drive
letter, followed by a colon, and then a back slash followed by the word “setup”.
For example, if CD the drive designation for your computer is D, the following
would be typed into the dialog box:
D:\SETUP
If you are unsure of which drive on your computer is designated as the CD drive,
you can double-click on the Windows desktop icon labeled “My Computer” to
display the various drive and network connections for your computer. Look for
the icon showing the CD drive followed by the drive letter designation. This letter
is the letter which must be used when in the Run window dialog box prior to the
setup instruction.
Once you have typed the proper command in the dialog box for setup, press the
Enter (or Return) key on your computer. Windows will automatically begin
reading the CD drive for setup instructions from the EGCP-2 HMI CD setup file
located there.
The ServLink and EGCP-2 software installation will initially prompt the user if it
may automatically create a directory on the hard drive of the computer, and label
this directory “Woodward”. Press the OK button and this directory will be made.
All the ServLink and EGCP-2 software will be placed under this directory on the
computer’s hard drive.
NOTE
Items on the Windows toolbar and desktop may appear differently than is
shown in this manual, depending on active programs in windows at the time
of installation or operation.
The intent of this manual is to accurately depict the windows which are
directly associated with the installation and operation of the EGCP-2
monitoring software.
