Chapter 2: iN7000 Client Software : Getting Started
iN7000 Client Software
In most cases iN7000 will be delivered as a complete system with Impath certified / optimized hardware
with the Client software installed. In rare cases the software may be installed at site.
iN7000 requires Microsoft.Net Framework 3.5 pre-installed. You can download this component from Mi-
crosoft’s website, or let the Installer to download and install it for you.
Run Setup.exe, do NOT directly run iN7000_Installer.msi
Setup.exe will automatically download and install Microsoft .net 3.0 if your computer does not
have it pre-installed. If this is the case, your computer must stay online during the installation.
Furthermore, the size of the .net framework is up to 100MB so it would take around 10 minutes
(depending on your network bandwidth and your pre-installed components) to compete the download
and installation. Please be patient.
We would recommend you to manually download and install Microsoft .net 3.5. The new
framework is larger (around 200 MB), but may be more stable.
The installer would take some time to install and configure Windows Media components at the
end of the installation. The whole process would take 5 to 10 minutes, so please be patient.

Logon
When you start the program, a log on dialog is displayed.
Figure 2-3 : Logon Window
You should logon with an account you defined in iN7000
The account is NOT your license id or password). If this is your first time to run the program
or you did not modify your account setting, you can log on by using
administrator/administrator as username/password. In later chapters we will show where
you can create your own account.
If you checked the “Remember me” and “Log on automatically” checkboxes, next time you run iN7000 the
remembered account will be used to logon. If later you want the log on dialog to show up again, you have
to reset application state persistence. (Please refer to Program Settings)
