Installation and Licensing

Introduction

There are three parts to the installation process:

  • Program installation
  • Activate/validate the product license
  • Enter the Application Settings using the Application Settings Editor

The activation/validation procedure must be performed before the program can be used and is described in the Datgel Licensing System User Guide.

Download

The Datgel Processor Affinity Manager package and Datgel Toolbox Installer can be downloaded from datgel.com. Logs Edition and Professional Edition are available.

Install Datgel Toolbox

Before Installation

A few basic preparations can help ensure an effortless installation.

  • Make sure that the computer where you plan to install the program meets the minimum hardware and software requirements.
  • Connect your PC to Internet before installation (the process may need a working Internet connection).
  • The Datgel Toolbox program requires that the Microsoft .NET 4.8 framework is installed on the PC prior to the installation of the Tool. If your PC does not have this, then it will be automatically downloaded and installed during the Tool installation process.
  • Log into the PC with Administrator privileges before starting installation.
  • It is recommended that you exit out of other applications that maybe running on your PC.
  • Close gINT before you start installation.

Installation

  • Run the installer, typically named Datgel.Toolbox.20##.#.#_YYYY-MM-DDTHHmmss.exe.
  • When you come to the Components screen, be sure to select this product, or you can simply install all Components. 
  • The gINT*.exe.config files for gINT versions V8i and 10..# are edited by Datgel software during installation.

Datgel Licensing

Trial Version
  • Datgel's license system is based on a user identity created when you registered on datgel.com, called Datgel ID.
  • When you first download a trial package a limited duration license is assigned to your Datgel ID, which would expire normally after 14 days.
  • When you open the trial product library, the license check will be prompted.  Your default web browser will open and you will be asked to login with your Datgel ID.
  • The trial form will show each session, showing the count down to expire and links to purchase.
  • You can also see the status in the Datgel Licensing Manager app.

Enter the Application Settings

The last step of the installation process is entry of the Application Settings with the Application Settings Editor. If you wish to change these settings at a later date, you may run this program at any time from the Start menu at Programs > Datgel > Datgel Processor Affinity Manager > Datgel Processor Affinity Manager Administrator.
