Installing Field Tools Configuration Software
You install Field Tools software (which includes FBxConnect) on your PC to configure the device.
Important
▪ Field Tools (including FBxConnect) is available as a free software download to registered
SupportNet users. If you are not a registered SupportNet user, new accounts take up to
24 hours to process so plan accordingly.
▪ AMS Device Configurator (available separately) is incompatible with AMS Device
Manager: they cannot reside on the same machine.
▪ Before beginning the installation, close all other applications.
▪ Field Tools cannot reside on a computer running any component of OpenEnterprise 2.x,
OpenEnterprise 3.x, OpenEnterprise Client/Server, or ObjectServer software.
▪ TechView and other components of BSI_Config software cannot be installed on a
computer running OpenBSI Network Edition versions older than 5.9 Service Pack 2.
▪ You must have administrative privileges to install Field Tools.
▪ You must disable User Account Control (UAC) prior to installing Field Tools (you can re-
enable it after a successful installation).
▪ As part of the installation, software from both Eltima and MACTek
®
is automatically installed.
Depending upon your permissions, Windows may require you to confirm these installations
before the installation can proceed.
1. Right-click on the installer file and choose Run as administrator from the pop-up menu. For
details on minimum hardware/software requirements as well as more details on the
installation steps see the Field Tools Quick Start Guide (D301703X412).
Note
During Field Tools installation, you must select the FBx support including FBxConnect option.
