Step 10) Install the KEPServerEX Software

Note: If you have purchased the LITE version of KEPServer you will be allowed to configure your

server to communicate with up to a maximum of 4 PointScan modules.

After you purchased the KEPServerEX software license, you should have received a green Kepware CD
that is packaged inside a green and gold plastic container. There should be a Kepware software

license number and an IOTech PointScan /100 license number printed on the inside front cover of the

plastic container. Also, the plastic container should include a 16-page product information booklet

that tells you how to install the KEPServer license. Read pages one through four for detailed
installation instructions. These instructions can be summarized as follows:

(a) Insert the Kepware CD into the CD drive on your computer. This needs to be the same PC

that will be connected to the PointScan modules and will be running DASYLab.

Note: Inserting the CD should auto-start the installation process. If the CD does not auto-

start, use Windows Explorer to browse to the contents of your CD drive. Then, find

the KEPServerEX_Install \ Disk1 folder on the CD and double-click on the

Setup.exe file [in that folder].

(b) Follow the prompts to complete the installation.

Note: Make sure that you select only the IOtech PointScan100 driver when you do the

installation. Do not select all drivers or you may run into problems later on.

(c) After completing the installation of KEPServerEX, go to the Kepware product information

booklet and follow the instructions for Licensing and Registering a Driver.

Until you register the driver you will not be able to run KEPServer

for more than 2 hours.
