If you are working with IDEAL, you must install SmartPlant Instrumentation Server, which requires a special serial number.  For installation details, see the SmartPlant Instrumentation Server and IDEAL Installation and Configuration Guide.

Third Party Software Installation

Third party software such as CAD package and report generator such as InfoMaker can be installed at any location on the network or local stations.  The drives (local or network mapped) on which these packages are installed require read/write access for the stations that are configured to use them.

The driver used for printing the PDF files is included in the SmartPlant Instrumentation installation. This printer is used for PDF generation and should not be removed or used for any other purpose.

Versions of SmartPlant Instrumentation prior to version 2009 Service Pack 2 must first be upgraded to SmartPlant Instrumentation 2009 Service Pack 2.

After the upgrade is completed to version 2009 Service Pack 2 you must:

  1. Rebuild stored procedures and triggers for all domains.

  2. Rebuild projects in As-Built domains.

After completing the upgrade to Service Pack 2, you can then upgrade to your new version of SmartPlant Instrumentation.
