Installing GeoData Manager on another PC

This describes how to install GeoData Manager on a PC:

• If you are adding a PC to a GeoData Manager installation, either when you are setting the system up for the first time or sometime later.
• If you are replacing a PC in an existing GeoData Manager installation.

These instructions are general; if they don't cover your setup or if your system uses Remote Desktop please consult your IT department or GSDS.

Before you start

• You will use the same registration name and key as other PCs in your setup.

• If you are adding a PC to a setup already running GeoData Manager:

  1. Have available any settings and databases for the new PC.
  2. If necessary, purchase a licence from GSDS for the new PC and receive any new dongle required.

• If you are replacing a PC now running GeoData Manager, on the old PC:

  1. If necessary, save any of its settings and databases for the new PC.
  2. Uninstall GeoData Manager

  You will install the dongle from the old PC on the new PC.

Installing GeoData Manager on another PC

1. If you haven't yet installed a dongle on the PC, do it now: either a single-user dongle or a network dongle.

2. If you haven't yet installed the required GeoData Manager apps on the PC, download and install them as described here.

3. Installing GeoData Manager creates a desktop shortcut. Start GeoData Manager.

4. Use your registration name and key to register GeoData Manager.

5. In GeoData Manager, open the database manager and add any existing databases.

6. If required, load the company settings from its file.

7. Install any 2-D contouring application required.
