Introduction

Overview

These installation notes contain instructions on how to install Tecplot Focus and the Tecplot License Manager. In order to complete the installation pro-cess, you must have a basic understanding of file editing, directory naviga-tion, path names, environment variables, and aliases.

Follow these directions to set up your local Tecplot License Manager (TLM)files.

Evaluation License Setup

Single-User License Setup

If you have a Single-User license, you will need to obtain a license key file.

1.The Tecplot Focus installation will automatically generate and dis-play the myhostids.txt file and add it to your installation directory 1.

Your license type is also printed on the yellow sticker inside your DVD case. See Section “License Types” on page 30 for details. If you downloaded your installation and do not have a license number, contact Technical Support .

Macintosh Installation

Use the contents of this file when requesting a license key file from

Technical Support. Refer to the Section “Obtaining License Key

Files” on page32 for more information.

2.You will receive a tecplotlm.lic file from Technical Support that

contains your license key. To activate this key, save the tec-

plotlm.lic file to the Tecplot Focus installation directory.

Network or Site License Setup

If you have a Network or Site license, the TLM must be installed on the net-work server and you must configure your tecplotlm.lic file before you can run Tecplot Focus on your local machine. The steps for installing the TLM on the network server are provided in the Section “Installing the TLM on Macin-tosh/Linux Platforms” on page26.

You will need to configure the tecplotlm.lic file on your local machine to communicate with the server. The tecplotlm.lic file is located in your Tecplot Focus installation directory, /Applications/TecFocus_2008. This file must include your server name and port number. If you do not know the name of your network server, contact your System Administrator. Once you receive the server information from your System Administrator, replace “myserver”in your tecplotlm.lic file with the correct information.

File Associations

1.Single-click on a file of the desired type (such as a .plt file).

2.Press command-I or select File>Get Info to display the Info dialog for

that file type.

Installing Local Tecplot License Manager Files Assigning the ALT Key

Apple's X11 for the Mac OS X server does not treat the Command or Option key as an Alt key. To assign the Command or Option key as an Alt key, add the following line to /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc file:

xmodmap -e "keycode 66 = Alt_L"

This change will take effect when the X server is restarted. You should also

be able to type the xmodmap command in at a terminal window.

Linux Installation

Also, include the bin sub-directory of the Tecplot Focus home directory in your PATH environment variable.

tecFocus_2008. Perform the following (choosing the commands appropriate for your shell):

? For users running the Bourne, Korn, or Bash shell: add the following .bash_profile file (for Bash) in your login home directory:

...{pre-existing code}...

PATH=$PATH .:$TEC_FOCUS_2008/bin

The following procedures depend upon the type of shell you are using. If you do not know what type of shell you are using, type the following command: echo $SHELL . A response of /bin/ksh means you are using the Korn shell,a response of /bin/sh means you are using the Bourne shell,and a response of /bin/bash means you are using the BASH shell.
