Installing PackBench
Launch the PackBench setup with a double-click on the MSI file and wait for the Welcome screen to be prepared.
Click Next > to proceed.
In order to be allowed to install PackBench, the END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT has to be accepted. To do so, select the upper radio button and click Next > to proceed.
Please choose the destination folder and the root directory for projects by either keeping the suggested default or clicking on the Change... button to select another target directory.
If a custom destination folder has to be defined, the dialog displayed above has to be used. Please use the icons to navigate to the desired installation directory or to create a new one where necessary. As soon as the correct target is defined click OK to return to the Destination Folder screen. It will be updated to display the custom destination recently selected.
On the Destination Folder screen click Next > to proceed.
The Setup Type screen is displayed, presenting the three options available for PackBench installations:
•Standalone
•Client
•Server
Press Next > to continue.
Connection Configuration Client screen
In the Connection Configuration Client screen the connection to the device which hosts the PackBench server is configured. In this screen there are two fields which are mandatory for the configuration of the connection:
Host: The SQL server needs to be defined here. Please specify the server together with an instance (if an instance is required). The server can be specified either by its name or by its IP address.
Port: The port for the connection has to be entered here. Please ensure, that the port is identically with the one that has been used during the set up of the PackBench server.
Click on Next > to proceed.
The License Type screen provides options to either activate the PackBench instance via order number and online activation service, by using an already prepared license file (*.rsl), or to skip activation for now. If the activation is skipped, it will be necessary to perform the activation at the first launch of PackBench..
To use an already existing license file, which most likely has been provided by the Raynet support team, the Browse... button has to be clicked. Use the controls of the system browser dialog to navigate to the *.rsl file, select it, and click on the Open button.
Click Next > to proceed.
If activation by order number has been selected during the previous step, the Customer Information screen is displayed:
Please enter your individual RayPack Studio Installer Order number and provide the required user information, such as E-Mail, user name, and company name. The information will be used to verify the order number during the upcoming installation execution procedure.
Click Next > to proceed.
If RayPack Studio Installer is used together with RayFlow, tick the Configure RayFlow access for this product checkbox and enter the full RayFlow URL here.

Note: If no RayFlow URL is entered, all RayFlow related functionalities will be unavailable. |
Click Next > to proceed.
