Ra Workshop User Guide

Instalation

This section will help you install the application Ra Workshop. Before that make sure you read the System Requirements page.

To start the installation insert the CD in the computer and wait for the autorun to start. Once started, click on the button "Ra Workshop 3.2" " (where 3.2 is the software version). If you have downloaded the application from the internet then it is very likely that it will be archived with the Zip utility. To start the installation you have to unzip the file downloaded and run Setup.exe.

If Autorun does not start or your internet browser is not able to interpret the script (which is configured for Internet Explorer) , you can manually start the installation running $CD:\Ra Workshop\3.2\setup.exe where $CD is your CDROM / DVD your computer uses.

After starting the software installation follow these steps:

1. Select language setup
Select the language in which you wish to run the installer. The following language versions are available: Romanian, English, Greek and Turkish.



2. Welcome Message
The installer displays a welcome message. Click the button "Next" to move forward.



3. License Agreement
Read the terms of use of the license to know what your obligations are. You can go ahead only if accept the terms from the user license agreement (EULA).



4. User Information
Enter information about the user and licensed company. You can also select whether the application will be available only to the user logged on the computer at the time of installation or if it will work for all users who are logged on the computer in question.



5. Select installation directory
The application will be installed by default in C:\Program Files\Pyramid Software\Ra Workshop 3.2. You can select another directory to install Ra Workshop in any at your choosing.



6. Setup type
You can install the full application or you can configure the installation based on certain options. Our recommendation is to install the full version.



7. Select database
The kit will install by default Microsoft SQL Express server database which is also the default server in the list of options. But if you already have installed a Microsoft SQL Express Server, the kit will give up on installing its own server and a server will have to be selected manually from the list that appears by clicking on the button "Browse", or you can type the name server directly in the textbox "Database server".
You can also select the mode of authentication: the user currently logged in Windows or an allready existent Microsoft SQL Server user. If you are not an administrator of the network we recommend you keep the defaults and go to the next step.



8. More options
Additional options allow better control in case of update. Default settings are sufficient in most cases.



9. Ready to install
After you do all the settings the software is ready for installation. Click the "Install" button to begin the actual installation.



If you have questions about how to install it, do not hesitate to contact Technical Support Department, or post questions on the Forum.
