How to Install, License, and Update AutoPIPE V8i ATS v.09.06.01.11?

Solution:

Note:

1. It is assumed that before installing an AutoPIPE ATS (Automatic Test Set) that the respective version of AutoPIPE has already been installed.

2. The ATS software version must match the AutoPIPE software version. You CANNOT mix the versions of these applications as the test results will be considered invalid.

3. All applications must be installed from the CD that was sent to you by the Bentley QA&R manager on the computer where the application is to be installed. Any other method will void certification under the QA&R program.

Step #1: Install AutoPIPE ATS:

Select the correct Hyperlink below:

5. At the bottom of the License Configuration, uncheck "Show Welcome Screen on Start Up"

6. Press OK button.
