ProCAM Installation Guide

http://www.cadfamily.com/downinfo/292457.html
The steps to install ProCAM are listed below. If you are installing ProCAM to run on a network, the
installation directions are provided on the ProCAM CD.
1 Verify that you have the hardware and software required to run ProCAM (page 1-4).
These steps assume that your PC is running a supported version of Windows and your mouse
and video card are functioning correctly in Windows. In addition, make sure all critical
operating system updates and driver updates are installed.
If you are going to run Solids Machining, Access 2000, 2002, 2003 or Access 2000 Runtime
must be installed before running the ProCAM setup program.
2 Start Windows and insert the ProCAM CD in the drive.
After a brief pause, the Setup program should run automatically and the Setup menu should
display. If the menu does not display automatically, select Start on the Taskbar and choose Run.
In the Run dialog box, type d:\setup (or the letter of the CD drive) and click OK. You can also
start the program from Windows Explorer by opening the CD folder and double-clicking
setup.exe.
3 Click the Release Notes button on the Setup menu and read the Release Notes.
This file contains important information you need to know before installing.
4 Click the Win 2000/XP Driver button on the Setup menu to install the license/security key
driver.
Install this driver if you are installing ProCAM for the first time or if you have upgraded the
operating system to 2000 or XP. Without this driver, ProCAM cannot read the key and will run
in Demo mode. If you install the driver, reboot your PC before starting ProCAM.
5 Click the ProCAM II button on the Setup menu and follow the prompts to install the software.
6 Click the applicable buttons on the Setup menu to install supplemental TekSoft and third-party
products that you are licensed to run.
CAUTION! If you install supplemental programs (e.g., ProNest, Verify version 5.1) that you
have not purchased, these programs will not run. If you would like to purchase a license for any
of these programs, contact your TekSoft reseller.
7 Activate your ProCAM license.
ProCAM uses a key (also called a copy protection block or dongle) for licensing and protection
against unauthorized use. A key is a small hardware device that fits on the parallel port or the
USB connector of the PC. The key is programmed for the modules and versions you are licensed
to run and if the key is not attached, ProCAM will run in Demo mode.
