Installation Instructions for PDI Software
(These instructions apply to following PDI Software: GRLWEAP, CAPWAP and PIT-W)
Important Installation Notes for PDI
Software
• Do not connect the SentinelSuperPro
USB hardware key until the sentinel
system driver and the PDI Software
have been installed.
• To install PDI Software on a computer
with an operating system that allows
for the configuration of permissions for
security groups (i.e. Windows NT,
2000 or XP), you need to login as a
user with administrator level access.
After the program has been installed,
run it once at this administrator level to
initialize the key and registry settings.
• If the program cannot see the
Hardware key, verify that the Sentinel
System drivers have been installed on
the computer. If they were installed,
check the website www.safenet-
inc.com for current drivers and for
additional setup information pertaining
to specific computers.
Installation Steps for PDI Software
1. Insert the ‘PDI Software’ compact disc
into your CD-ROM drive.
2. The install program will start
automatically. Or, if the Auto Run
feature of Windows is not enabled on
your system, click the “Start” button
and choose the “Run” command. In
the Run dialog box, type
“D:\SETUP.EXE” (where “D”
represents the letter of your CD-ROM
drive). Then click the OK button. This
may take a few seconds, so please be
patient.
3. Follow the installation instructions
shown on your screen. When
prompted for your name, Company
Name and Serial Number, enter the
latter two exactly as given on the
inside of the back cover of the manual.
4. When the software has been
successfully installed, a dialog box will
be displayed prompting the user to run
the “Sentinel Protection Installer”.
Running this will install the Sentinel
system drivers that are needed for the
hardware keys. So, if you purchased a
hardware key (USB or parallel), it is
necessary to install the Sentinel
system driver, so check the checkbox
to “Run Sentinel Protection
Installer”. Note, if you purchased a
Software Key, GRLWEAP University
version, or PIT-W Standard, the driver
is not needed, so uncheck the
checkbox. Click on “Finish” to
complete the installation.
5. Once the setup program has finished,
attach the hardware key if purchased
(see “Installing ...Hardware Key”) and
start the program by double clicking on
the icon located in the PDI folder on
the desktop or from the Start menu.
License Type Selection
GRLWEAP and CAPWAP – When the
program starts it should automatically
detect the single user hardware key. But,
if it fails to find the Hardware key or to
determine the license type, it will display
the “License Key Type Selection” dialog
box (refer to Figure 1).
 PIT-W - For PIT-W Standard Version, a key
is not required to run the program.
Prior to use of any professional features
of the program the Professional Version
license will need to be activated. If the
program detects a hardware key, the
license and features are already
activated. If not, click on the “File” Menu,
“Professional License…” and then
“Switch License Type” to display the
“License Key Type Selection" dialog
box, which should appear as in
Figure 1, only the title will be different.

of the type, click on the “Find Keys” button
and the program will first check for a “Single
user hardware key” and then for a
“Software License”. If neither is found then
the program will search for computers on
your network’s subnet that have a hardware
key attached and display the list of IP
addresses found.

If you are using a single user hardware key,
click on “Single User hardware key” and at
this time the program will look for the single
user key attached to the computer and
display the appropriate message. If the
program can’t find the hardware key, a
message box will be displayed. If this
occurs, verify that the key is connected to
the computer and that the sentinel system
drivers have been installed correctly. After
receiving the message that a valid single
user hardware key has been found, click
“Accept” to use it for future runs.

If you have a network key and know the IP
address of the server that has the network
key attached, you can directly enter the IP
address to save search time. Enter the
specified IP and then click on “Network
hardware key” and the program will then
check the specified computer for the network
key.
If the server’s IP address is not known, click
on “Network hardware key” and the
program will search the subnet of your
network for computers that have a PDI
hardware key attached. A list of IP
addresses that it found will then be
displayed and you can click on the
appropriate IP address to select it. The
program will then check that IP address for a
valid Network key and display the
corresponding message. Once a valid IP
address has been found click “Accept” to
use it for future runs.
