Installation

It's a two-step installation procedure:

Step 1

Install the supplement software on a host PC. With entering the required license key and applying to license agreement the supplement software will be installed into ..\TwinCAT\CE subfolder on your PC

Sample TwinCAT Database Server CE : Installing the software on host-pc will create a folder "..\TwinCAT\CE\TwinCAT Database Server CE" containing the CE *.cab installation files (like TcDatabaseSrvCe.I586.CAB).

Step 2

Transfer the CE-cab installation file to the CE device (via memory stick / FTP / public folder / CF-adapter..). While CE device running double click on cab file and then click the OK button without changing the installation path. After installation has finished the cab file will destroy itself.

After installation it is necessary to reboot the CE device by selecting the reset/suspend function within the start menu to activate the driver.

Important!!

If the TwinCAT Database Server don't start automatically after a reboot and you get the ADS-Error 6, please check the version of the "StartUp.exe". Version 1.20 or later is necessary for the automatic start of TwinCAT Database Server.
