Running the Installer
Insert the eDTR™ Flash Drive into the PC’s USB slot

If autoplay on the computer is enabled and allows the autorun feature to launch
automatically, you will be taken directly to Installer. Autorun is turned off by default
on Windows Vista and 7 but Autoplay knows how to produce a window upon drive
insertion that should give the user some options for what to do. The exact behavior
can vary based on configuration of the PC.

1. If autorun is disabled and autoplay requires you to select which action to take

a. You will see a window similar to this:

Figure 1 Windows XP AutoPlay Window

Figure 2 Windows Vista/7 AutoPlay Window

b. Select eDTR™ and click the OK button on XP and simply click the
icon on Vista or 7.

2. If autoplay doesn’t automatically display the window above, you will need to
launch the eDTR™ manually from Windows Explorer.

a. Go to Start, My Computer

If the autorun feature is allowed to execute on this machine when you open
the drive this way, you will be taken directly to Installation.

If the autorun feature is not allowed to execute, you will be taken to window
where you can view the contents of the drive instead that will look similar to
this:

c. Double click the eDTR™.exe to launch the eDTR™.

Note: On Windows Vista and 7 by default the User Access Control will prompt
the user when software needs to be installed since it is considered a change to the
system. Depending on the exact configuration of the machine, a dialog box like this
will be shown. This should be very familiar to the user for whenever they have had
to install or change the configuration of their PC.

Figure 11 Windows Vista/7 UAC Window for eDTR™ Setup

Note: The visual appearance and behavior of the eDTR™ Setup Wizard and
other eDTR™ windows are for the most part nearly identical between
Windows XP, Vista, and 7 so each platform will not be shown unless there is a
difference worth noting.

distributor. If your distributor is part of a collection of distributors with the same
Swagelok code, you will see all of the possible distributor selections available in
a pull down selector.

eDTR™ 1.2.2 Installation Guide August 2010 Page 13 of 29


Optional Selector for Multiple Distributors

PDF Viewer
Valid PDF Viewers
You see as the last entry in the screen shot above, the PDF Viewer used by eDTR™
is Acrobat Reader 9. Valid viewers are either Adobe Acrobat (any edition) or
Adobe Reader. Version 7 or newer of either viewer application is required.

Missing valid PDF Viewer

If when you try to verify the eDTR™ installation by launching it from the start menu
icon, the PC does not have a valid PDF Viewer installed, you will see a dialog box

Figure 34 eDTR™ Missing Adobe Reader Install Window

Click Install Adobe Reader 9 button.

Known Issues

Window Sizing Issue

Dialog boxes that appear to be incorrectly sized as you see in the examples below,
are a result of your computer’s DPI setting being set to something other than 96 DPI
(which is the default).

Figure 36 Improper sizing of Activation Successful dialog box

Figure 37 Improper sizing of Update dialog box

eDTR™ will be updated soon to accommodate the various DPI settings without a
need to change anything on the computer. For now, you can change this DPI setting
on your computer to resolve the issue.

eDTR™ 1.2.2 Installation Guide August 2010 Page 24 of 29


Steps to change your DPI settings:

Figure 38 Windows XP Control Panel - Select and open Display

Figure 39 Windows Vista/7 Control Panel - Select and open Display

eDTR™ 1.2.2 Installation Guide August 2010 Page 25 of 29

eDTR™ 1.2.2 Installation Guide August 2010 Page 26 of 29


Figure 42 Windows Vista/7 Display Properties – Set Display to Smaller – 100%

After making the change to 96 DPI or “Smaller”, you will need to click Ok, then Ok
on the Display Properties form. A restart of your computer will also be needed for the
change to take affect.

Proxy Authorization Issue

eDTR™ will function over HTTP protocol and through a company’s proxy server so
long as that proxy server doesn’t require specific authentication / credentials.

If the company’s proxy server requires specific application authentication or user


credentials, you will get an error message indicating that the server is not reachable
and reference to “error 407 Proxy Authentication” from the proxy server.

At this time, unless the company’s IT department allows traffic across HTTP port
through a proxy server without specific authorization requirement, the activation
process cannot continue.

The ability for eDTR™ to accept and provide user credentials and proxy server
configuration information will be coming in a near future release.

eDTR™ 1.2.2 Installation Guide August 2010 Page 27 of 29


Antivirus Software Conflict

Some antivirus software, namely Microsoft Security Essentials, will complain about a
file it finds as part of the eDTR™ installation. This file is autorun.inf and it is only
used at the time when the user inserts the drive as a convenient helper to provide the
user with an autoplay capability.

The person installing or using the eDTR™ or the company’s IT contact may come
across a warning from Microsoft Security Essentials (or other software) that this file is
considered a problem and will respond with removing the file.

It is OK to allow this file to be deleted. It will not affect the usage of the eDTR™.

This conflict may also show up during the installation procedure when the files are
being copied and a popup message asking how to handle will show up. There should
be a button for ‘Ignore’. Choose ‘Ignore’ and allow the installation to continue.

You may see messages like this as well regarding permission to write this file on
installation:

Figure 43 File Access Denied message for autorun.inf when installing

Just choose ‘Skip’ if you see this message. You don’t need to install this file.

If the file was not skipped and Microsoft Security Essentials caught the file and is
waiting for a decision to be made, you will see this message in the lower right corner
of the desktop:

eDTR™ 1.2.2 Installation Guide August 2010 Page 28 of 29


If you click Show Details, you should be able to remove the file in question:
autorun.inf.

The next release of eDTR™ will not attempt to copy this file to the installation and
this issue will go away.

Custom Installation Selection

The current release of the eDTR™ does not allow the installer to select a custom
installation location. This will be an option available in a new future release.
