1. Installing the SEL-5010

----------------------------------------------------------

* Hardware and Operating System Requirements

- 800 MHz or faster processor

- Windows NT4 SP3 or later with 64 MB RAM

- Windows 2000, Windows XP with 256 MB RAM

- Windows Vista with 512 MB RAM

- 150 MB hard disk space for installation

- EIA-232 serial port

- (optional) Ethernet card for Telnet and FTP

- CD-ROM drive for installation

- VGA 800 x 600 or higher resolution monitor

- mouse or other pointing device

* Upgrading Prior SEL-5010 Versions

It is recommended that you backup your existing

SEL-5010 database prior to installing the latest

version. In addition, if your database is on a LAN

you may want to copy it to a local hard disk,

then connect to it using the old SEL-5010 prior to

running the new SEL-5010. If you elect to update

your old database, the update is much faster when

performed on a local database vs. a networked

database.

* Upgrading SEL-5010 Version 1.x or 2.0

If you are using an earlier version of the SEL-5010,

the setup program will attempt to detect your previous

database. When the SEL-5010 is first run after

installation it will ask if you want to import

Setting Schemes and Connection (Dial) Directory

entries from your old database. Select Yes to import

your previous data into the SEL-5010 database. It

will also allow you to import users and options.

It is possible to import Settings and Connections

from any version of the SEL-5010 database.

* Upgrading SEL-5010 Version 2.0.5

You may install the SEL-5010 over 2.0.5 without

uninstalling version 2.0.5. The setup program will

not replace your SEL50102.MDB database, so your

connections and settings will not be lost. You will

need to import your connections and setting schemes

into the new database.

* Upgrading SEL-5010 Version 2.2.x through 3.5.4

IMPORTANT: After installing and running the SEL-5010

you will not be able to use the database with 2.4.x or

older version of the program. If you need to use the

database with an older version SEL-5010, or if you

share the database with other users who use an older

SEL-5010 you must make a copy of your database prior

to running this new version.

It is highly recommended that you backup your

existing SEL-5010 database and uninstall your current

version of the SEL-5010 before installing the latest

version. Installing the latest version without

uninstalling your earlier version may result in a

loss of data.

* Upgrading SEL-5010 Version 3.5.5 or later

Normally, you may install the latest version without

uninstalling earlier versions. When you first run

the SEL-5010 it will update your previous database to

the latest format. Alternately, you may choose not

to update your current database and instead use the

newest database, then import your connections and

settings into the new database.
