Open a command prompt window.
Browse to the directory in which your MS5ControlDesignWindowsInstaller.exe or MS5ControlDesignWindowsX86_64Installer.exe file is located.
Run the silent installation process with the command MS5ControlDesignWindowsInstaller.exe -f installer.properties (32-bit Windows) or MS5ControlDesignWindowsX86_64Installer.exe -f installer.properties (64-bit Windows).
Note: If you created your installer.properties file in a directory other than the directory in which the MS5ControlDesignWindowsInstaller.exe or MS5ControlDesignWindowsX86_64Installer.exe file is located, you must specify the path to the installer.properties file when you run this command.
The INSTALLER_UI=SILENT line is not added automatically to the installer.properties file if it was created with the -r flag during installation. If the -r flag was used to create the installer.properties file, INSTALLER_UI=SILENT must be added as the first item in the file.
The template assumes MapleSim Control Design Toolbox 5 will be installed into the C:\Program Files\Maple 15\toolbox\ControlDesign folder. If another location is desired, change the USER_INSTALL_DIR accordingly.
The template assumes MapleSim Control Design Toolbox 5 desktop icons will be placed on your desktop. To change this, replace the lines in the "Install Desktop Shortcuts" section with:
DESKTOP_SHORTCUTS="","No"
DESKTOP_SHORTCUTS_1=
DESKTOP_SHORTCUTS_2=No
DESKTOP_SHORTCUTS_BOOLEAN_1=0
DESKTOP_SHORTCUTS_BOOLEAN_2=1
If required, the location of the WATCOM compiler can be changed. The pathname must not contain any spaces. If you omit the WATCOM_INSTALL_FOLDER field entirely, the WATCOM compiler will not be installed.
The template assumes MapleSim Control Design Toolbox 5 will be the default MapleSim Control Design Toolbox version (assuming other versions of MapleSim Control Design Toolbox are installed on the system). To change this, replace the lines in the "MapleSim Control Design Toolbox Worksheet Association" section with:
WKS_ASSOC_RESULT="","No"
WKS_ASSOC_RESULT_1=
WKS_ASSOC_RESULT_2=No
WKS_ASSOC_RESULT_BOOLEAN_1=0

Complete the following tasks:
Go to the location of the FLEXlm utilities that are currently being used. For MapleSim Control Design Toolbox 5, the default location is /Users/<username>/Applications/Maple_Network_Tools/FLEXlm/11.7/. Enter the command:
./lmdown
Copy all the MapleSim Control Design Toolbox network license files to /Users/<username>/Applications/Maple_Network_Tools/activate.
Navigate to the location of the FLEXlm utilities for your operating system. By default, /Users/<username>/Applications/Maple_Network_Tools/FLEXlm/11.7/.
When starting license manager daemons, you must enter the path to the directory containing all license files. By default, /Users/<username>/Applications/Maple_Network_Tools/activate.
Note: Point to the directory only, not an actual license file.
To start the license manager, enter the following command:
./lmgrd -c license_file_path -l debug_log
where license_file_path is the full path to the directory containing the license files and debug_log is the name of a file to which debugging information is written. The -l option (letter l, not the number 1 (one)) creates the file.

Run Daemons on Startup
To have the daemons run on startup, edit the appropriate boot script (such as /etc/rc.boot, /etc/rc.local, or /etc/rc2.d/Sxxxx). For example, if you run lmgrd as a boot startup script, you can run it as a regular user by using the following su command at the prompt:
|
where username is a non-privileged user; lmgrd_path is the correct path to the lmgrd file, license_file_path is the full path of the network license file (by default, /$HOME/Maple_Network_Tools/activate/MapleSim Control Design Toolbox5.lic), and log_path is the debug log file path. It is recommended that the network license file be called ControlDesign5.lic.
Help for Starting the License Server
If you have any problems starting the license server in the UNIX system boot up files, refer to http://www.flexerasoftware.com/.
You can now use MapleSim Control Design Toolbox 5.
To run Maple 15, MapleSim 5, and associated toolboxes, you must place all license files in the same directory. If you have other FLEXlm license files stored in one central location, you can store the Maple 15, MapleSim 5, and associated toolbox license files there as well.
Note: Maple 15 and associated toolbox licensing is compatible with licensing for Maple 14, but not with licensing for versions previous to Maple 14. Maple and toolboxes earlier than version 14 need to be running the Maple 13 version of the Maple Network Tools.
Complete the following tasks:
Go to the location of the FLEXlm utilities that are currently being used. For MapleSim Control Design Toolbox 5, the default location is /usr/local/Maple_Network_Tools/FLEXlm/11.7/. Enter the command:
|
Copy all of the MapleSim Control Design Toolbox network license files to one folder, for example, $HOME/Maple_Network_Tools/activate.
Navigate to the location of the FLEXlm utilities for your operating system. By default, $HOME/Maple_Network_Tools/FLEXlm/11.7/.
When starting license manager daemons, you must enter the path to the directory containing all of your license files. By default, $HOME/Maple_Network_Tools/activate.
Note: Point to the directory only, not an actual license file.
To start the license manager, enter the following command:
./lmgrd -c license_file_path -l debug_log
where license_file_path is the full path to the directory containing the license files and debug_log is the name of a file to which debugging information is written. The -l option (letter l, not the number 1 (one)) creates the file.
You can now use your network licensed Maplesoft products.

Named Network Users run MapleSim Control Design Toolbox on their own client machines. These client machines are connected to the license server over the network. The Network Named User licensing option allows system administrators to strictly enforce which users, or client machines, may run MapleSim Control Design Toolbox.
When you install Maple Network Tools, an options file (.opt) is automatically created in the $Maple Network Tools/activate directory.
Note: The vendor daemon, maplelmg.opt, by default, looks for the options file with in the same directory that contains the license file used by the license server manager.
To set up Named Network User licensing, perform the following steps:
To manually edit the options file, perform the following steps:
Go to the directory that contains the options file. By default, this is $Maple Network Tools/activate.
INCLUDE lines in an options file state which users can run the product. Add an INCLUDE line for each product. If there is more than one user per product, add an INCLUDE line for each user, as well. Alternatively, you can use the GROUP syntax to combine authorized Named Users for a specific product.
INCLUDE Maple USER User1
INCLUDE Maple USER User2
INCLUDE Maple USER User3
INCLUDE Maple USER User4
INCLUDE ControlDesign USER User3

When the installation and activation process is complete, start MapleSim. A Control Design Examples palette is displayed on the left side of the MapleSim window when the toolbox is installed.
For more information, see the MapleSim Control Design Toolbox 5 Getting Started Guide, which can be found on your desktop.
