Install

Overview

Install the setup of winMulti on a desktop or laptop to run without connecting to a machine. This allows you to load batches and run the user interface to diagnoise programming, printing and batching errors.

Options are also available to install multiple machine setups from backups to easily switch between different "real world" machines

1. Multi Folder

Create a folder called c:\multi to contain the winMulti front end software
Copy the contents of G:\Builds\Latest Software Versions\Multiv6.windows\ into this folder.

...If you do not have access to this, ask GG or GF to send a copy

2. Machines Folder

Create a folder c:\machines
Inside this folder, create the "Benchtest" folder (contact GG)

...On my laptop, it has a D: drive so I put this folder in there instead. It can go anywhere but it needs to be referred to in the masterdir.saw file (see later)

Get a backup from a machine
Create a folder with the build number as the name in the machines folder (eg c:\machines\A2024\)
Copy the backup into this folder (as if it is the DDRIVE)
Inside this build folder, create 2 empty folders called BACKUP and BATCHES

...Repeat these steps for any number of actual machine backups. Below is my one, just to confuse matters, it is called d:\multi\ - it does not really matter what the name is
