Getting Started
The following section outlines the steps in a typical installation and subsequent first use. Because the
software described here is both flexible and powerful, this section does not exhaustively describe all
the details of available installations. Instead, this Quick Start Guide refers to those descriptions
elsewhere in the
User Guide or online help. A typical installation will go through the following (in
order):
1. Installation and Startup —See the other manuals for this product for a more detailed
description of installation.
2. Discovering Resources —After you first install the application, you must discover the
equipment you want to manage.
3. Alarm Panels —See Alarm Panels for a discussion of alarms and events managed by the
application.
