Installing and Opening Standalone MPC

Raritan recommends that you open only one standalone MPC session at
a time. Opening more than one standalone MPC session on the same
client at the same time may cause performance problems and system
errors.

Note: Note that the installer file names and the install directories/folder
paths that are documented in the device user guides may differ slightly
from what is outlined in this guide.

Important: MPC modem connectivity is supported on Windows,
Linux, and Sun Solaris but not Macintosh. When working in
Windows, use Standalone MPC.

You must have the MPC JAR file to install MPC for any of these
operating systems.

1. Download the installation file, MPC-installer.jar from the Raritan

website on the Support - Firmware Upgrades page
(http://www.raritan.com/support/firmwareupgrades). Click on
Dominion Family and scroll to the Standalone Multi-Platform Client
link.

2. If copying MPC-installer.jar from a known location, double-click on

the file to start installation.
