Installing Field Tools Configuration Software
You install Field Tools software (which included 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 (which is part of Field Tools) is incompatible with
AMS Device Manager: they cannot reside on the same machine.
If you have a previous version of Field Tools already installed on your PC,
uninstall it and reboot your PC before you install this new version.
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.
