    INSTALLATION SEQUENCE

    1. Running Microsoft Access Before Installing AutoPLANT Applications
      • Before installing any AutoPLANT product, Microsoft Access must be run once to register user credentials such as name and initials.

      • Failure to do this will result in an error message when previewing reports via applications such as Instrumentation & Wiring, Data Manager, Vision, Spec Gen or 2D/3D Consistency Reporter etc. Failure to do so will also result in an empty Microsoft Access window being displayed.

    2. Running AutoCAD Before Installing and Running AutoPLANT Applications
      • Pre-Requisite and Common Tools for AutoPLANT Applications V8i installation, AutoCAD must be run once whilst logged in with the Administrator account that is performing the installation.

      • Once the installation is complete and before users try to run any AutoPLANT application, AutoCAD must be run once more for all other user account types that will be using AutoPLANT such as Standard user accounts. This process ensures that AutoPLANT will be registered with the specific AutoCAD version that the user is running.

      • Once AutoPLANT is installed we recommend the use of AutoPLANT products through a Standard user account instead of an Administrator account.

    3. Install AutoPLANT Prerequisites (apr64081113211.exe). We will go through the following Dialog boxes one after another.
      • Prerequisites and Common Tools for AutoPLANT Applications are required to be installed prior to any of the AutoPLANT product.
      • The prerequisites pack comprises of SQLite 3 ODBC Drivers, Bentley Class Editor, Microsoft .Net Framework 4.5, Microsoft Visual Studio Tools for Office Runtime, CONNECTION Client and Bentley Plant Framework V8i.

    4. Reboot the Machine (It is mandatory to restart the machine after installation of Prerequisites and Common Tools for Bentley AutoPLANT Applications)
      • It is mandatory to restart the machine after installation of Prerequisites and Common Tools for Bentley AutoPLANT Applications
      • User may delay the restart till any/all AutoPLANT V8i product installations.
      • AutoPLANT applications will not work properly if the machine is not restarted after the installations

    5. Install AutoPLANT Modeler (apm64081113211.exe). We will go through the following Dialog boxes one after another.


      The Dialog Box that appears in the left image is the one that appears as Default. But if the Users wants to install AutoPLANT Isometrics then select Isometrics as shown in the Image shown on the right side.
