Cesview IIi asic Installation NOTE: If your current Cesview IIi installation is version or 1.3.x, you do not need to uninstall it. Those will be handled automatically by this installation. Any previous 1.3.x configuration customizations you have made in Cesview IIi tilities will be carried forward, such as networked Cesview IIi Servers. If you have an older version (1.2.0 or earlier) then first manually uninstall it using the Add/Remove Programs tool in your Windows Control Panel. If you have a server installation of Cesview IIi 1.2.x, before running the installer open your Windows Services tool (found in Control Panel > Administrative Tools) and stop the Cesview IIi Server service. NOTE: For non-online subscriptions, if your current library location resides inside where you currently have Cesview IIi installed, use your current Cesview IIi tilities Advanced Library

2 Manager first to change that location (such as from c:\program files\cessna\cv2data to c:\cessna\cv2data for example) so your installed libraries will not be deleted when the new version of Cesview IIi is installed. 1. Start the Cesview IIi Installer. o If you have an installation disk, insert the installation disk in your CD or DVD drive. If the Cesview IIi 1.3.x installer does not start automatically, then open Windows Explorer and click on the CD or DVD drive containing the installation disk. Then double-click "Cesview_Setupxxx.exe". (xxx will be the Cesview IIi version). o If you have downloaded the installer, open Windows Explorer and navigate to the location to which you saved the Cesview IIi installer. Then double-click "Cesview_Setupxxx.exe". (xxx will be the Cesview IIi version). 2. Follow the on-screen instructions. See illustration below for a representation of installation configurations to help you select the best install option. o Standalone - Install Cesview IIi as one complete package on this computer. Access local libraries even when off your network. Access libraries from Cesview IIi Servers existing elsewhere. o Server - Install the Cesview IIi Server to host libraries for Cesview IIi rowsers on your network. Also use this option for Terminal Server environments. (See Additional Server Installation Notes below for further installation instructions) o rowser - Install the Cesview IIi rowser to access libraries from a Cesview IIi Server existing elsewhere. (See Additional rowser Only (Client) Installation Notes below for further installation instructions) o Online - Install the Cesview IIi rowser preconfigured to access Cessna-hosted libraries via the Internet. (Requires Online subscription) NOTE: If you have an Online subscription only then your downloaded installer will default to this option and you will not be presented with any of these install options. (See Additional Online Installation Notes below for further installation instructions) 3. The Cesview IIi tilities will automatically launch after the application installation is complete. Note: Some installations may require you to restart your PC. The Cesview IIi tilities can be launched from the Start Menu by selecting Start/Programs/Cessna/Cesview IIi tilities or by selecting the Cesview IIi tilities desktop shortcut if selected during installation. 4.

This installer can place a file containing the licenses on your desktop or it can automatically install them if your libraries are in the default location (c:\cessna\cv2data). If you selected the former option, simply browse to Cessna_All_Model_Licenses13.zip file on your desktop during the license installation. If ever needed, you can also

7 Automated Library Download and Install Operation Guide Please read the important information below for using the Automated download and install mode. Information about the proxy and computer sleep mode are noted above. NOTE: If you change your CessnaSupport.com password and you have automatic downloads or installs set, you must update your password in the "Configure Download Options". To see which library is currently being downloaded, press the "Check/Refresh Download Status" in the Cesview IIi tilities Advanced Library Manager and note which one is marked with the yellow asterisk *. You should not use the Download Manager to check status when using automatic mode. Any libraries flagged as having updates available (denoted by blue > or light blue < ) or ready to install (green + ) should be left for the automatic processing to handle. If any download errors are displayed (denoted by red "@"), stay on the "Libraries for Download" tab and select that library by left-clicking on it and then press the "Remove Selected Library/Download" button. This will remove the problematic download files. It will not uninstall an installed version of the library. The next automated cycle will download it again. When switching from manual downloads to automatic, make sure the Download Manager is shut down completely. If you see it on your taskbar or in the system tray by the clock (as a red and blue icon) you can open it and select "exit" form the "file" menu or right-click and choose "exit" from the pop-up menu. Automated downloads and installs are handled by a coordination manager which is a Windows service that runs in the background. As long as the computer is running (and not in sleep or hibernate mode), even with no one logged on, the downloads and installs will continue to process. Download and Install checks run alternately approximately every 10 minutes during the automated window you have chosen. Note that Immediately is not limited to a specified time window.
