Minimum System Requirements
Talpac will run under Windows XP Service Pack 2 or 3, or Windows Vista. As a recom-
mended minimum, your PC will require a 500 MHz Pentium or AMD Processor with at
least 512MB of RAM and 1 GB of hard disk space. For the best results you will need to
have your screen display set to at least 1024x768 and High Colour (16bit) or better.
Talpac Installation
Step 1
Insert the Talpac Installation CD into your CD drive.
Step 2
If your CD drive has AutoRun (auto insert notification) enabled, the installation will start
in a few moments. If not, open Windows Explorer, locate the CD drive and double-click
on the file Setup.exe.
Step 3
Select Install Talpac and follow the prompts from the installation procedure.
Note: You must be logged in as an Administrator to install Talpac.
Hardware Dongle
If you have been supplied with a Single User registration file, a hardware key, called a
Dongle, will be supplied. You must ensure that it is plugged securely into the USB port
of your computer prior to starting the program.
The Sentinel Key driver must also be installed before you can use the Dongle. Select
Install Sentinel Driver from the Talpac installation screen, or open Windows Explorer,
locate the CD drive and double-click on the file Sentinel Protection Installer 7.4.0.exe
in the Sentinel Driver folder, to install the driver on your computer.
Note: The software will regularly check for the hardware key while you are
running Talpac, so the Dongle must remain in the port at all times.
Licensing
Talpac uses the Runge License Management System (RLMS) to manage the licenses
on each PC.
Single User Licenses are managed by the Runge Client License Manager (RCLM)
which is automatically installed by the Talpac installer. Select Start > All Programs >
Runge Software > Client License Manager to open RCLM. Refer to the RCLM Help
file for information on installing and managing Single User Licenses.
With Named User Licenses, a separate CD with the Runge Server License Manager
and the Reprise License Manager is supplied. Please click on the Help link on the install
screen of this CD for installation instructions.
Running Talpac
To start Talpac, double click the file Talpac.exe, double click on the Talpac icon which
is created automatically on your desktop, or select Start > All Programs > Runge
Software > Talpac.
Talpac System Directory
Talpac will be installed into the folder Runge Software\Talpac typically under the
\Program Files folder. Several folders will be created. The Talpac\Tutorials folder
contains tutorials in Metric and Imperial units that will introduce you to Talpac. The Tal-
pac\Templates folder contains some sample Talpac project files. These samples can
be used as the basis for new Talpac projects.
Windows Registry
Windows operating systems use the Registry to locate 32 bit programs. After installa-
tion, do not manually move Talpac program files to another location, as the Registry will
not be able to locate and run Talpac.
To move Talpac, use Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs to remove
Talpac and then re-install it in a different location.
