System Requirements
Running Java in Windows2000 Compatibility Mode
8
To run any application in the iControl Edge suite, you must have the following software
installed on your PC or laptop:
• a Web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer 8.0 or later, Mozilla Firefox 1.5 or later)
• Java 2 Runtime Environment (JRE) version 1.6.0_21. The installer file for the JRE (which
includes Java Web Start) can be downloaded by following the Useful Downloads link on
the iControl Startup page.
To modify the Configuration Spreadsheets used to define the iControl Edge monitoring layout,
you will need a PC or laptop with the Microsoft® Excel spreadsheet software.
Running Java in Windows2000 Compatibility Mode
To switch your client PC’s Java JRE to Windows2000 Compatibility mode:
1. In Windows Explorer, navigate to the location of the following Java
*.exe files:
•
java.exe
• javacpl.exe
• javaw.exe
• javaws.exe
Typically, you would find these files in a location such as the following:
C:\ProgramFiles\Java\jre6\bin
IMPORTANT: If the Java Web Start application reports errors regarding an inability to find files,
it is important to clear both the Internet Explorer cache and the Java Application
cache.
IMPORTANT: Recommendation to run Java in Windows 2000 Compatibility mode
Miranda highly recommends you switch your Java 2 JRE to Windows 2000 Com-
patibility mode (see "Running Java in Windows2000 Compatibility Mode", on
page 8).
