Installing the PMCS software

Once you have set up Windows NT and any third-party software (if appropriate) you are ready to install the PMCS software. PMCS should be installed last, after all other software installations are completed. Your PMCS software is provided on a CD- ROM.

The diagram below depicts the relationship of the Host PC and any optional Viewer Workstations in your system. Follow the specific instructions below for software installation on Host PCs and Viewer Workstations.

eLicensing PMCS software

General Electric Industrial Systems has added security technology that requires your PMCS software to be licensed in order to run. A separate license is required for each computer that will receive PMCS. Each eLicense Order ID that is sent with your order corresponds to one license.

You license your software as part of the automated PMCS installation process. When you launch the installation process the first screen that will appear will be your eLicense Option screen (see below). This screen allows you to either trial or fully license your PMCS software.
