• Setting Up an InBatch System
  • Setting up an InBatch system is a two-step process. You must first install any required software and configure the software and operating systems. You then install the InBatch software.

• Note: In the InBatch Server installation, the Windows Media Sensing feature is disabled so that you no longer need to install a loopback adapter.

• You must be logged on as a user with administrative privileges to install the InBatch software.

• Note: The All-In-One single node solution is recommended only for small pilot projects and nonproduction development systems. The All-In-One solution requires that the InBatch Server, the InBatch history server, InTouch, and the I/O server be installed on one machine.

• Note: Single node installation requires you to run the install process twice.

• The recommended installation sequence is:

1. 1. Set up the InBatch server.
   2. Set up an InBatch history server.
   3. Set up an InBatch reporting node.
   4. Set up InBatch run-time or development clients.
   5. Set up an InBatch redundant server and clients.

The first InBatch component you need to set up is the InBatch Server.

• Installing an InBatch History Server
  • Before you install an InBatch History Server, you must have Microsoft SQL Server set up on the node. If you intend to access the history databases with SQL Server authentication, you also need a SQL Server login name and password.
• Installing InBatch Reporting Content
  • Before you install InBatch reporting content, you must have Wonderware Information Server 4.0 set up on the node. If you intend to access the databases with SQL Server authentication, you also need a SQL Server login name and password.
• Installing an InBatch Development Client
  • The InBatch development client and InBatch run-time client are both installed with the InBatch Server; however, you can also install them separately.
• Installing an InBatch Run-time Client
  • The InBatch development client and InBatch run-time client are both installed with the InBatch Server; however, you can also install them separately.
  • Before you install an InBatch run-time client, you must have Wonderware InTouch set up on the node.
• Installing an InBatch Redundant System
  • For details about installing an InBatch redundant system, See Appendix A.
• Installing the InBatch Add-on for WinXML Exporter
  • The InBatch add-on for Win-XML Exporter is a file that lets you convert the InTouch windows that contain InBatch ActiveX controls into XML format for publishing in Wonderware Information Server. For additional information about this process, consult the Wonderware Information Server documentation.
• Installing an InBatch IDE/IEE Extension
  • The InBatch IDE/IEE extension adds a Launch Environment Display menu item to the ArchestrA IDE. This menu option is disabled until the InBatch Server is installed on the same node.
• Installing the InBatch PDF Documentation
  • You can install the InBatch PDF documentation on any node as part of any of the installations. You can also install the documentation on another computer.
