7. Next, a dialog box will open conﬁ rming the Multi-User Install. Choose Yes to continue.

To switch to a single-user or local install, please contact Technical Support.

An additional screen will open verifying the install location. Please verify that the newly

created shared directory on the server has been chosen. Make corrections where

necessary. If no corrections are needed, click Next to continue.

If you have chosen to install to the default directory, a dialog box will appear asking

you to conﬁ rm this location. Please make sure this folder is shared with full access

rights to each workstation. Otherwise, click No and change the install destination.

NOTE: Full access rights must be applied to the default directory.

8. Next, a dialog box will open titled Start Copying Files listing the installation settings

that will be used to copy ﬁ les onto the workstation. To change any setting, select

Back. If you are satisﬁ ed with the settings, click Next to continue.

If you have a previous version of PC*MILER|Connect or PC*MILER|Mapping installed,

an alert will appear on the screen with the following message, “The install found

a previous version of Connect (Mapping). These ﬁ les will be renamed with a .bak

extension.” If both products were previously installed on the computer you are now

installing to, you will receive two alerts. Click OK in the alert window(s) to continue.

9. Next, a dialog box will open prompting you to enter the “UNC Path to Your Server”.

You may get the UNC path two ways: type it in manually if you know it, or leave the

UNC Path box blank, click Next, and follow the directions in Step 10 below for the

“Directly on Server” option.

TIP: The UNC path is \\XXXXX\Pmw270\ or \\XXXXX\Pmw271\, where “XXXXX” is

your actual server name. (The trailing backslash is required at the end.) To get your

server name, type hostname in the Command Prompt, then press the Enter key. Click

Next to continue.

10. In the next screen you will be asked if you are installing “Remotely on a Workstation”

or “Directly on the Server”.

 Choose “Remotely on a Workstation” if you are on a PC that is connected to the

Server. Click OK in the UNC Path screen that opens to continue.

 Choose “Directly on Server” if you are installing from the Server’s Console or a

simulated Console Session like a Remote Desktop. For this installation, you will have

to physically walk away from the console session you are currently using and go to

another PC. On the PC you are now in front of, browse over to the server to the

Pmw270 (or Pmw271) folder (the shared name from Step 1) and double-click

UNCpath.exe. Click OK in the screen that pops up and then walk back to the Console

Session you were originally at and click OK.

11. Follow through with the rest of the installation. This may take some time depending

on the speed of the computer you are installing to. Do not exit or reboot the computer

during the installation. If any error messages appear, please contact Technical Support.
