Installing ETAP PowerStation
2.2 Installing ETAP PowerStation
This section describes the installation procedure for Windows 98 SE/Me/NT/2000/XP of PowerStation
using a Microsoft Access, SQL Server, or Oracle database. PowerStation provides all the necessary tools
to build and maintain the Microsoft Access databases used for your PowerStation projects. Other
database formats such as Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle require a separate license from the appropriate
software developer/distributor.
2.2.1 ETAP PowerStation 4.0
This installation procedure assumes that your CD-ROM drive is designated as the D: drive. If this is not
the case, replace the letter D with the letter corresponding to the drive where your CD-ROM is located.
The same procedure is used to install ETAP PowerStation regardless of the licensing method (Stand
Alone or Network.)
•
To install PowerStation, close all applications and insert the PowerStation CD into your CD-ROM
drive. Make sure that the “PowerStation 4.0” is selected from the ETAPInstaller program and press
“INSTALL”
Another method for installing PowerStation without using the “ETAPInstaller” program is to click on the

Setup
2.2.3 Detection of Installed Versions Of PowerStation
The PowerStation 4.0 Setup program can detect the following versions of ETAP PowerStation installed
on the target computer:
•
•
•
•
ETAP PowerStation 2.0.8
ETAP 3.0 Demo
The PowerStation 4.0 Setup program WILL NOT detect and process pre-released (Beta) versions of
PowerStation 4.0. These versions will have to be manually un-installed by using the Windows
Add/Remove Programs feature, before installing PowerStation 4.0.
By default, Setup marks previous installations of PowerStation for removal. You may de-select any
version of PowerStation you want to retain. Otherwise, the previous installations will be removed before
the actual PowerStation 4.0 installation begins. It is recommended to select the “Remove” option during
this part of the installation, to completely remove previous versions of the ETAP PowerStation program
from the target computer. Library files from PowerStation 3.0.1 and 3.0.2 will not be deleted.

2-8
Setup
2.2.5 ETAP PowerStation 4.0 Setup Type
The PowerStation 4.0 InstallShield Wizard allows the user to select from three different types of
installations that could be performed on the target computer.
Typical
This is the standard (normal) installation of PowerStation. Select this option in most circumstances.
Compact
The Compact installation does not install the Library, Help, Documentation, and Example files. This
installation should be used only when very limited disk space is available.
Custom
This installation enables you to select the files you want to install onto your computer. For example, this
installation can be used to install only the ETAP License Manager 5.2.3 to your License Manager
Server. For details, see the ETAP License Manager section.
•
The installation program adds a PowerStation 4.0 shortcut to the Program Folder. By default, the
Setup program will create a Program Folder “PowerStation 4.0”, which could be renamed by the user.

•
Select Next to begin the installation of ETAP PowerStation 4.0.
2-10
Setup
2.2.6 PowerStation Library File
If the installation directory chosen during the installation process of PowerStation contains a
PowerStation library with the name etaplib4.lib, the installation program will preserve the existing
PowerStation library.
The installation program renames the existing PowerStation library to OldETAP4.lib before installing
the new library etaplib4.lib. If an OldETAP4.lib already exists on the target computer, the installation
program directs you to make a backup copy of the old file or move the old file into a different subfolder.
Otherwise, the installation program will overwrite the current OldETAP4.lib by renaming the existing
etaplib4.lib to OldETAP4.lib.
2.2.7 Data Source Name Registration
The installation program automatically sets up and registers the ODBC Data Source Names (DSNs)
otiaccess, otisql, otireport, and oracle.
2.2.8 Registering Active X Components
The Setup program automatically registers the following ActiveX components required for running with
PowerStation 4.0:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
PVCombo.OCX
PVDateEdit.OCX
PVDT40.OCX
PVDT80.OCX
PVList.OCX
PVMask.OCX
PVNum.OCX
PVTimeOCX
The ActiveX components are copied into folder PVDT40 under the installation location.
2-11
Setup
2.2.9 Installation Completion

Setup
Configuring ODBC
2.3 Configuring ODBC
A System Data Source Name (DSN) (versus a User DSN) gives any user logged into the computer access
to this driver, i.e., this driver is available to any person using this computer. By default, the PowerStation
setup program will configure and register all four system DSNs necessary to run PowerStation with
Microsoft Access (DSN "otiaccess" and “otireport”), SQL Server (DSN "otisql"), and Oracle (DSN "
otioracle") databases.
2.3.1 SQL Server Database
SQL Server requires a custom installation with information specific to your network and the SQL Server
setup. PowerStation requires you to already have SQL Server 6.5 or higher installed on your network.
•
Select ODBC Data Source (or ODBC 32-bit Administrator) from the Control Panel.
There are four fields to complete. These are the Data Source Name, Server, Language Name, and
Generate Stored Procedure for Prepared Statement fields. All other fields may use the default values
supplied by ODBC.
•
•
•
•
Data Source Name is otisql in all lower case letters.
Server: Specify the name of the server you will be using. Consult your network administrator or
SQL Server administrator for this information.
Language Name: (Default) unless your SQL Server administrator specifies otherwise.
Generate Stored Procedure for Prepared Statement: PowerStation runs at least four times faster if
selected.
SQL Server may require some system-dependent installation procedures.
administrator or Operation Technology, Inc. for technical assistance.

Setup
Running PowerStation
2.4 Running PowerStation
After PowerStation is installed and ODBC is installed and configured, you are ready to run PowerStation.
Place the OTI parallel printer port module (ETAP Security Hardware Key) directly onto your printer port
if you are using Stand Alone licensing. If you have a printer, connect your printer cable to the other side
of the module.
After you install PowerStation, you must restart (reboot) your computer prior to running PowerStation.
The restart is necessary so Windows can load the drivers associated with the printer port module provided
with PowerStation. If the computer is not restarted, PowerStation will not be able to read your printer
port module on the back of the computer or server.
If you are using a Network Key (one printer port module for your entire Local Area Network), refer to
the ETAP License Manager section, which pertains to the PowerStation License Manager setup
procedure.
To run PowerStation, click on the Start button, select Programs, then select the ETAP PowerStation 4.0
folder, and click on PowerStation 4.0.
The first time PowerStation is run, it requires you to type the CD-Key code (in XXX-XXX-XXX format)
that comes with your PowerStation CD (PowerStation version 4.0. and higher).
2-14
Setup
PowerStation Licensing
2.5 PowerStation Licensing
2.5.1 Security Hardware Key
ETAP PowerStation uses two different types of hardware keys to license the use of the software:
•
•
Stand-Alone Hardware Key
Network Hardware Key
Placed and resides on the back of your computer
Placed and resides on a License Manager Server
The two types of hardware keys look similar; however, the Network Hardware Key will have a small
sticker that says Network on it.
2.5.2 Stand-Alone Version of PowerStation Licensing
A Stand-Alone Hardware Key is placed directly on the parallel port of the computer (Windows
98/Me/NT/2000/XP) that will be running the software. No installation is required other than
PowerStation itself; licensing for the computer will be done automatically by the Stand-Alone Hardware
Key and software installed by the PowerStation setup program.
2.5.3 Network Version of PowerStation Licensing
A Network Hardware Key requires a Windows NT/2000/XP Workstation or Server. Place the Network
Hardware Key on the back of the computer/server designated to license PowerStation. This will be the
permanent location of the key, and as such should not be removed once it is operational. (The computers
obtaining permission to run PowerStation may be Windows 98/Me/NT/2000/XP.)
Installation on Windows NT/2000/XP requires that the installation be performed by a user account with
Windows NT Administrative privileges. The network installation can be done either with the License
Manager 5.2.3 Setup program provided on the PowerStation 4.0 CD-ROM, or can be launched from the
ETAPInstaller Program, or can be installed manually. In each case, the steps to be performed are the
same.
2-15
Setup
License Manager Server
2.6 License Manager Server
For the purpose of running PowerStation, the computer containing the Network Hardware Key is called
the License Manager Server. The License Manager Server needs to be ON and RUNNING to issue
authorization to run PowerStation.
Each computer, running PowerStation (Windows
98/Me/NT/2000/XP), requests authorization from the License Manager Server via your LAN or WAN. If
the License Manager Server does not issue the requested authorization, PowerStation will NOT run.
The License Manager Server does not require the actual PowerStation software to be installed.
2.6.1 ETAP License Manager 5.2.3
The ETAP License Manager is a Windows NT/2000/XP Workstation or Server program that assists the
Network Hardware Key in licensing the use of PowerStation. The Network Hardware Key provides
licensing of up to 254 simultaneous users of PowerStation via a local area network (LAN) and/or a wide
area network (WAN). The ETAP License Manager manages the administration of simultaneous
PowerStation users as set forth in the terms of your ETAP license agreement.
Proper operation of PowerStation requires the installation of the ETAP License Manager on the License
Manager Server and the modification of the ETAPS.INI file on each PowerStation user’s computer.
The Network Hardware Key and the ETAP License Manager use minimal processor time and do not
require more than 10MB of free disk space for proper operation. If the machine will also be used to run
PowerStation, make sure the machine meets the PowerStation minimum hardware requirements.
2-16
Setup
ETAP License Manager Installation
2.7 ETAP License Manager Installation
ETAP PowerStation 4.0 or higher will use this method of installation. Earlier versions will use the
manual installation method described in detail in the following section. On the PowerStation CD, a
separate setup program is provided to install the ETAP License Manager. To install the License
Manager on Windows NT/2000/XP (WorkStation or Server), insert the PowerStation CD into your CDROM drive and select ETAP License Manager 5.2.3 from the ETAP Installer Program, then press
INSTALL.
•
•
Another way to install the ETAP License Manager without the ETAPInstaller Program is to select
RUN from the START Menu, then Select Setup.exe in the folder LMSETUP on your PowerStation
CD.
Select OK; the ETAP License Manager installation procedure will begin.
PowerStation 4.0 CD includes two versions of the ETAP License Manager. Both versions are identical
with respect to functionality. The default ETAP License Manager utilizes the Windows NT/2000/XP
“Named Pipes” protocol commonly used in Microsoft network while the other ETAP License Manager
uses TCP/IP. Utilize the TCP/IP protocol if your network is Novell or if you do not use “Named Pipes”
services.
2-17
Setup
The ETAP License Manager 5.2.3 Setup program lets you select which License Manager you want to
install. However, it will copy both License Managers to Windows System folders in case you need to
change to the other License Manager later.
In order for the ETAP License Manager to work properly, Setup requires a system restart at the end of
the installation procedure.
Note that the ETAP License Manager setup program requires Windows NT/2000/XP to run. It does
NOT run on Windows 98/Me.
2-18
Setup
2.7.1 Manual ETAP License Manager Installation
Installation on Windows NT/2000/XP requires that the installation be performed by a user account with
Windows NT Administrative privileges. Use the manual installation only if the ETAP License Manager
Installation program did not successfully install the ETAP License Manager.
Note that you should substitute your Windows NT directory name (usually ‘WINNT’) whenever you see
'WINNT' in this document.
1. Logon with ADMINISTRATOR Privileges to the License Manager Server.
2. Copy,

Server, continue with 8a; otherwise skip to 8b.
8. a. Type: etapslm –remove (Removes ETAP License Manager), or etapslmt –remove (for TCP/IP)
You should see a message that says: ETAPS Lic Mgr removed.
b. Type: etapslm –install (Installs ETAP License Manager), or etapslmt –install (for TCP/IP)
You should see a message that says: ETAPS Lic Mgr installed.
9. Reboot the License Manager Server.
2-19
Setup
2.7.2 PowerStation Installation for Network Licensing
For each computer (Windows 98/Me/NT/2000/XP) that runs PowerStation, install PowerStation using the
Typical installation option. See the Installing ETAP section for details.
To run PowerStation, each user MUST be a registered user on the License Manager Server. As a
minimum, each user must be a member of the Users group on the License Manager Server. If you use
Domain administration as provided by the Windows NT Server, it is sufficient to add the Domain Users
group to the License Manager Server’s User Manager / Policies / User Rights / Access.
In addition, one modification needs to be made locally in order to receive permission to operate
PowerStation. This modification is done by updating the ETAPS.INI file, by specifying the location of
the Network License.
2.7.3 Updating ETAPS.INI File
Each computer, obtaining permission to operate PowerStation from the License Manager Server, must
update the INI file to indicate the location of the License Manager Server.
•
Run PowerStation once. The program will issue the following message:
•
Click on OK to close PowerStation. This procedure creates the ETAPS.INI file.
License Manager using Name Pipes
When License Manager using Name Pipes is installed, update the ETAPS.INI by the following steps:
•
•
•
Edit the C:\WINNT\ETAPS.INI (NT/2000) or C:\WINDOWS\ETAPS.INI (Windows 98/Me/XP)
file using Notepad or a similar text editor.
Modify the line that says: LM Server=
Insert the name of the License Manager Server. For example: LM Server=CpuName
This procedure will tell PowerStation where the ETAP License Manager is located.
If you are running PowerStation directly on the License Manager Server, you need to modify this line
by typing a period after the equal sign: LM Server=.
2-20
Setup
License Manager using TCP/IP
When License Manger using TCP/IP is installed, update the ETAPS.INI by the following steps:
•
•
•
•
•
Edit the C:\WINNT\ETAPS.INI (NT/2000) or C:\WINDOWS\ETAPS.INI (Windows 98/Me/XP)
file using Notepad or a similar text editor.
Delete the line that says: LM Server=
Add the line LM TCP Server=
Insert the name of License Manager Server with domain information.
For example: LM TCP Server= tcplm.oti.com
If you would like to use IP address instead, add the line LM Server IP=
Insert the IP address of the License Manager Server.
For example: LM Server IP=10.10.10.191
After the TCP Server or IP is set, you may configure to use a specific port by adding the line
LM Port=
Insert the port that you would like to use. For example LM Port=5000.
Please note that you have to change the port that the License Manager Server is using in order for this
setting to work.

ETAP License Manager Verification
2.8 ETAP License Manager Verification
2.8.1 Verifying ETAP License Manager Installation
After rebooting the License Manager Server, go to START/ SETTINGS/CONTROL PANEL /DEVICES
to verify that the ETAP License Manager is running. Find the entry DS1410D in the Device list box.
The entry should show “Started Automatic.” If you cannot find DS1410D, you have not copied the files
from the PowerStation CD correctly or you have not run ETAPKEY.EXE properly.
Go to START/SETTINGS/CONTROL PANEL/SERVICES. Find the entry for ETAPS Lic Mgr in the
Service list box. If you cannot find ETAPS Lic Mgr, you have not installed ETAPSLM.EXE properly.
The ETAPS Lic Mgr entry should be “Started” or blank. If the status is blank, highlight the ETAPS Lic
Mgr entry and Start it.
2.8.2 Verifying ETAP License Manager Operation
Go to START/PROGRAMS/ADMINISTRATIVE TOOLS/EVENT VIEWER to view the ETAP License
Manager output. Select Application from the Log menu to view the applications log. ETAP License
Manager logs all licensing events to the applications log.
When the ETAP License Manager starts, you will see three events in the log identified as Source ETAPS
LMService. The ETAP License Manager uses this source when it writes event information to the
applications log.
•
Select the first ETAP License Manager event. Double-click on the event to view the event detail
dialog. The message references error: 0. The error reference is not important. However, the message
following the error reference - “ETAPS License Manager starting....” is important. The description
will read something like this:
The description for Event ID (0) in Source (Etaps LMService) could not be found. It contains the
following insertion string(s):
Etaps LMService error: 0, ETAPS License Manager starting
•
•
Close the event detail dialog and double-click the next ETAPS LMService message. You should see
a message indicating: “ETAPSLM has detected a valid ETAP PowerStation security key.”
Close the event detail dialog again and double-click the third ETAPS LMService message. You
should see a message indication similar to:
“Key SN: 3087007744-345610626 Licensed to: Operation Technology, Inc. Version: 020000 Users: 5.”
(Of course, your serial number, the licensee, version, and number of users will be specific to your
Network Hardware Key.)
You have now verified your ETAP License Manager is correctly installed and running properly. The
latest issue of ETAP License Manager is version 5.2.3.102601 and is intended to work with
PowerStation Rel 1.4.0 (Build 052197) or later (including PowerStation 2.0 and 3.0). PowerStation 4.0
and later requires version 5.2.3.102601. You can check your version of the ETAP License Manager by
viewing Properties in the file WINNT/SYSTEM32/DRIVERS/ETAPSLM.EXE. File version is displayed
at the top of the Version sheet. The build is listed under Item Name: Special Build Description.

System Optimization
2.12 System Optimization
If PowerStation takes a long time to load or save a project file (more than several minutes), you can
modify your system settings to optimize the speed of PowerStation.
There are several system attributes that control the speed at which PowerStation loads and processes a
project database.
2.12.1 CPU Speed of the Computer
We recommend high-speed Pentium III or faster processors.
2.12.2 Size of RAM in the Computer
We recommend a minimum of 128 MB of RAM. For very large network databases within PowerStation,
512 MB of RAM is recommended.
2.12.3 Virtual Memory File Size of the Operating System
This can be changed from the System icon in the Control Panel folder. We recommend 200 MB of virtual
memory.
Note that your Virtual Memory file is stored on your hard disk. Therefore, if you increase the size of this
file, it will use a proportional amount of space on your hard disk. You should consult your system
administrator before changing this setting.

2.12.4 ODBC DSN Buffer Size
The Data Source Name (DSN) Buffer Size is the internal buffer, in kilobytes, that is used to transfer data
to and from PowerStation to the associated project database. The Microsoft Access default is 512;
however, PowerStation's otiaccess and otireport driver is defaulted to 4096. 4096 or larger should be
used for all Microsoft Access PowerStation databases.

The buffer size defaults to 512. Change this number to 4096 and select OK. This will return you to
the ODBC Data Source Administrator. Select OK.
2.12.5 ODBC DSN Page Timeout
The Data Source Name (DSN) Page Timeout specifies the period of time, in tenths of a second that an
unused page of data remains in the buffer before being removed. The Microsoft Access default is 5, or
0.5 seconds. PowerStation projects are optimized for a setting of 5 when using Microsoft Access as the
project database.
