Installing FactoryTalk Historian Management
The Management option installs the FactoryTalk Administration Console add-on
patch. It provides a method of configuring, managing, and securing applications. To
install the patch, click “Install FactoryTalk Historian Management” on the Client
Tools CD. An installation wizard will lead you through the setup procedure.
To access the console, go to Programs > Rockwell Software > FactoryTalk
Administration Console. Initially, you will be prompted to select a FactoryTalk
Directory. Select the Network radio button; FactoryTalk Historian ME supports a
Network Directory, not Local Directory.
Installing FactoryTalk Historian ME Rule Editor
The Rule Editor allows you to create and edit user-defined rules for the point
discovery process. The selections you make in the dialog box are automatically
written to this file. The data points matching these rules are found and added to the
FactoryTalk Historian server. You can upload the rule file to the FactoryTalk
Historian ME using the FactoryTalk Historian ME Upload Manager feature.
See the FactoryTalk Help at Programs > Rockwell Software > FactoryTalk Tools >
FactoryTalk Help for information about using the FactoryTalk Administration Console.
If you are using the Rule Editor, see the “FactoryTalk Historian ME Rule Editor” appendix
for more information.
