Installation of UniPlot

System Requirements

UniPlot can be used with the following operating systems:

  • Windows XP
  • Windows Vista
  • Windows Server 2003 or higher
  • Windows 7

Installation

  • Place the CD-ROM in your CD-ROM drive. The setup program should start automatically after a few seconds.
  • If the setup program does not start automatically, please start the program manually by selecting Start=>Run and choose \setup\setup-uniplot-5xx.exe from the UniPlot Setup CD-ROM.
  • Please make sure to have a valid license key handy. The key is needed during setup.

Please contact us if you have any problem installing UniPlot or starting the program.

Command Line Options

In the command line of the setup program you can assign the license key and the installation directory.

Example:

setup-uniplot-513.exe /S /LIC=NNN /ALLUSERS /D=C:\Programme\UniPlot-5.13
Parameter Meaning
/S Silent. The setup program will not display any dialogs.
/Lic=NNN License key. NNN must be replaced by a valid license key.
/ALLUSERS Icons for all users will be created. Default is only active user.
/D=SSS Directory. SSS must be replaces by a valid directory name. If the directory does not exist, it will be created. If the directory name contains spaces the name must be enclosed in quotes.

Using your own setup program

To setup UniPlot on a computer you can simply copy the complete UniPlot folder to a new location on the target computer, for example c:\\program files\\UniPlot and start uniplot.exe. When UniPlot is started from the new location, three UniPlot Icons (in the Start menu, on the Desktop and in the Quick Launch menu bar) are created and all the necessary registry settings are saved in the system registry for the current user. You can find all keys that will be saved in the registry in the script\post-install.ic file.

Network Installation

If you own multiple UniPlot licenses and you can make sure that only the correct number of licenses is used, you can install UniPlot on a server.

When UniPlot is started from a client computer three UniPlot Icons (in the Start menu, on the Desktop and in the Quick Launch menu bar) are created and all the necessary registry settings are saved in the system registry for the current user.
