2. Release Overview
2.1 Introduction
Release 4.3.1 contains new features and enhancements relative to the previous series Release 4.0.x and 3.x.
Installing this release to your maxDNA system will give you access to all of these new features. Refer to
the document 278700_ReleaseOverview.doc for more details.
Release 4.x series requires the Microsoft Windows XP Professional edition operating system with Service
Pack 2 (included on the Pre-Requisites CD). Workstations upgraded to Release 4.x will continue to support
DPU4E versions 2.1 and 3.0 to 3.3. The following DPU4E model numbers can be upgraded: PDP301
through PDP309. (part numbers 081818, 081819, 181832, and 181833) Older model numbers PDP201
through PDP209 (part numbers 081830, 181830, and 181831) will require a hardware upgrade to operate
under Release 4.x. Consult with Metso Customer Care to schedule this upgrade. Once modified, they will
operate properly with Release 4.x and earlier versions.
Release 4.3.1 may also be installed on Microsoft Windows Server 2003 (both 32-bit and 64 bit versions).
To upgrade to release 4.x from Release 3.x or earlier it is recommended that you backup your Custom
directory to another machine or a CD-R disk, reformat the hard drive, install Windows XP Professional
with Service Pack 2, install maxDNA4.x, then restore your Custom directory. If you are updating from
Release 4.0 the installation program will automatically detect if Service Pack 2 has been installed and will
automatically launch the SP2 installation if necessary. The section in this document titled maxDNA
Software Upgrade Installation Instructions will describe the proper procedure for installing this upgrade. If
you are upgrading from Version 4.0 or an earlier version of 4.1, proceed directly to the section “maxDNA
Software Upgrade Installation Instructions”.
3. Software Installation
NOTE: Hyper-threading and dual core are supported in Release 4.3. However if these features are
enabled, a USB dongle is required. These features must be disabled if the parallel dongle is being used or
the workstation will become unstable.
The following procedure should be utilized to install the Windows XP Operating System due to either a
catastrophic loss of a workstation hard drive or a re-installation of a corrupted existing installation.
Before beginning the procedure, all required materials and workstation configuration information should be
located, assembled, and prepared. Also any optional hardware (modem, sound card, plant Ethernet card)
should be installed. The following information should be contained in the information packet supplied
with the computer. If the computer was previously operational, the following information can be retrieved
from the system. See notes below for information on how to locate the needed information.
Required Materials:
Windows XP Professional CD-ROM or system restore disk from manufacturer
(Optional) Display driver disk.
If installing multiple monitors you will need the CD( model #SFT467) which
contains the display driver (#075153) and a soft key for enabling Multi-monitor
support in maxVUE. The CD must be the one supplied for this Workstation since
the soft key must match the dongle installed on this workstation.
If installing Thin Client support on Windows Server 2003 you will nee the CD that
contains the soft key to enable the number of Client Licenses you have purchased.
The CD must be the one supplied for the Server since the soft key must match the
USB dongle installed with the Server.

21. Answer the “Please Configure Station Startup” by pressing “OK”. The Startup Configuration dialog
should appear.
If this is an operators station for a DPU4E/4F only system, then accept the defaults and allow tool to
overwrite maxDNA.ini
For a Windows Server installation, check the Remote SBP box.
For other stations enable and / or add appropriate startup items. The “Enable” checkbox must be
checked for a feature to be included on startup. The “Run as Service” checkbox is use to launch an
application on Windows startup under the EngineerService account as always running. This is the
recommended option for the maxSTORIAN and Events features to prevent interruption in service and
the potential loss of data.
For maxSTORIAN, the entry of a unique name per Domain is required. The Pts/sec entry (default 100)
is the rate of restoring a configuration on startup. A nonblank maxSTORIAN Password is required to
allow use of all of the maxSTORIAN functionality, such as browsing points with the maxSTORIAN
control panel. This password also adds protection to the “MxsStorageRoom” file folder that must be
network shared when backup is enabled. The same password is required for all stations where
browsing points with the maxSTORIAN control panel is desired – not just the History Stations.
The password must be entered via the Startup Configuration tool.
The enabling of the “Alarms” feature provides the alarm summary display services for maxVUE.
The additional checking of the List Server, provides the alarm list services that are part of the standard
maxVUE vertical toolbar display. It is recommended that no more than two stations per Domain have
this option enabled, to minimize the system loading due to alarm data gathering.
Add a custom entry by clicking on the right hand Setup button of the first blank entry. This will launch
an entry dialog as follows:
First select the type of application. Note that each type has distinct parameters that will appear that need to
be completed. The above example is for a custom application. Alternatively the Virtual DPU will provide a
view that includes entry of a DPU name and the path to the MXT file to load, among other options. These
views typically break out the Option Switch components into easily entered fields. Note that switching
back to the Custom Application view provides the ability to add to the Option switches any entry not
provided in the select view (such as redundancy switch settings for the Virtual DPU). Complete all entries
and select OK. Note that the entry of a correct Shutdown (Windows) Title is important to any non-SBP
applications. For an SBP application (checkbox enabled), this is not needed, as an alternate shutdown
message technique is used.
Lastly close the Dialog via Save / Exit and allow tool to overwrite maxDNA.ini
Note: if you have a dual monitor configuration, proceed to the section Installation of
Dual Monitor Using NVIDIA Quadro Series Video Cards. If this is an installation of
Windows Server, insert the Thin Client CD and double click the .REG file and reboot.
NOTE: Hyper-threading and dual core are supported in Release 4.3. However if these features are
enabled, a USB dongle is required. These features must be disabled if the parallel dongle is being used
or the workstation will become unstable.

be un-installed using the “Add or Remove Programs” from the Control Panel.
20. If this station will be used to flash maxDPU’s, you may install the latest maxDPU4E or
maxDPU4F files now. Put the maxDPU4E/4F CD in the drive. It should automatically launch the
self-extracting EXE that will unzip the DPU files to their correct location. The maxDPU4E files
will unzip to C:\Mcs\Setup. The maxDPU4F files will unzip to C:\Mcs\Setup\DPU4F. Click the
Unzip button, and when complete, then click the Close button.
21. Restart the computer. The workstation upgrade is now complete it can be returned to normal use.
22. The DPUs need to be upgraded. Refer to the appropriate section for performing the necessary
flash upgrades.
23. If you have version 6 or earlier of the Adobe Acrobat Reader installed, a new version 7.0.7 should
have been installed as part of the above installation procedure. Remove the older versions by
going to Start\Settings\Control Panel\Add or Remove Programs and remove any earlier versions
of the Acrobat Reader.
24. If you have version 7.0 of Adobe Acrobat Reader perform the following steps to upgrade to
version 7.0.7 (this fixes the slow opening of some documents).
a. Uninstall the older version by going to Start\Settings\Control Panel\Add or Remove
Programs and remove Version 7.0 of the Adobe Acrobat Reader
b. Go to the Acrobat directory on Disk 1 of 2 of the 4.3 Release CD and run
“AdbeRdr707_en_US.exe” to begin the installation. Accept all of the defaults.
To perform a DPU Bus Module (DBM) upgrade, you will install the software from the single floppy disk.
The disk can be created using from the maxDNA Release CD. Locate the directory DBM on the CD, insert a
blank floppy, and run mk_dbm.bat. Additional information can be found in the Readme.txt. You do not have
to do any additional hardware setup that would be required with a full installation.
To begin a full software installation, you must first set up the Ethernet adapter cards. These instructions apply
to the installation of the SMC Elite 16C Ethernet Adapter card, Part Number 079339. The diskette supplied
with the Ethernet cards, which contains SuperDisk for Ethercard Elite LAN Adapter, version 4.6 or later, can
be used to verify the current settings. You will also need a DOS boot disk.
1. Power down the DBM and install the maxNET Network A Ethernet card in its assigned slot (slot 2) and
remove all other Ethernet cards. Be sure to keep track of which card goes in which slot.
5. If the current configuration does not match the above-required configuration, answer yes to the question,
"Do you want to change the setup?"
6. You will be prompted to change selected configuration fields. Change these to the above settings.
7. Once the current settings match the above required settings, save the configuration by responding yes to
the question "Save the new setup?" The Ethernet card now has its configuration set.
8. Power down the DBM and remove the maxNET Network A Ethernet card. Be sure to keep track of which
card goes in which slot.
1. Install the maxNET Network B Ethernet card in its assigned slot (slot 1).
5. If the current configuration does not match the above-required configuration, answer yes to the question,
"Do you want to change the setup?"
6. You will be prompted to change selected configuration fields. Change these to the above settings.
7. Once the current settings match the required settings, save the configuration by responding yes to the
question "Save the new setup?" The Ethernet card now has its configuration set.
9. Install the maxNET Network A Ethernet card back in its assigned slot.
10. You may now cable the cards to the hub/Ethernet switch, restore power, and run the SMC diagnostic
program for the Ethernet boards.
The following procedure applies to the MAX 1000 HDI cards, Part Number 080404.
Switch 1 = ON
Switch 2 = ON
Switch 3 = ON
Switch 4 = ON
Switch 1 = ON
Switch 2 = ON
Switch 3 = ON
Switch 4 = OFF
As part of a full software installation, use DOS fdisk and format utilities to format and partition the hard
disk with a single primary DOS partition of 32 MB. In addition, NO extended partitions should be present.
This is because non-DOS partitions will be implicitly created when the DBM first runs to allocate all of the
remaining disk space for event buffering and maximum trend history storage.
1. Insert the diskette labeled “DOS Operating System disk 1,” into the diskette drive. Then cycle power, i.e.,
if power is on, turn it off. Then turn power on.
2. When the diskette finishes loading, a display asks you if you want to exit setup via the <F3> key without
installing MS-DOS. Press the <F3> key twice to get to the A: prompt.
4. Type 4 to display information about the disk partitions (if any) that currently exist. All partitions displayed
must be deleted. Delete the non-DOS type first (if any), then all the rest, with the last one being the PRI
DOS partition.
11. Disk 1 should still be in the diskette drive. Press <Enter> in response to a prompt asking you to insert the
DOS system diskette in drive A:
1. To install MS-DOS from the three diskette set to the hard disk drive:
a. Type dir to see that the file CONFIG.SYS exists on the hard disk.
b. Type del config.sys
c. Type dir to confirm that the file CONFIG.SYS is no longer present on the hard disk.
Note: Do not use the option for loading DOS or running applications in extended memory. To avoid using
these options, simply delete the CONFIG.SYS startup file created during the DOS setup procedure.
Note, with DOS 6.2 and later, you may use the <F5> key to skip the AUTOEXEC.BAT execution.
DBM Installation
Copying Files, please wait . . .
2. The DBM will now present you with a series of questions necessary in order to set the hardware
configuration. The questions are as follows (the responses are only an example):
At the completion of these questions, you will be presented with a summary of your responses, and
prompted to confirm this configuration as follows:
After confirming the configuration, the DBM will finish its initialization and come on-line. Messages
similar to the following will be presented:

DBM Startup complete
Reboot each DBM to DOS. During boot, wait until the hard drive is identified, and the message about the
floppy drive is posted - then hit the <F5> key to defeat the execution of autoexec.bat. At the C:\ prompt,
edit setup.ini. One of the lines in setup.ini will say IP=2.99.99.xx (xx, the last octet, will vary). This is the
IP address of the 'A' network. Change this address to 172.16.160.xx, (that is, do not change the last octet of
the IP address), then save and exit. Reboot again for the change to take effect. The reason that you are
editing the address in this manner, as opposed to using the normal setup routine in the DBM, is that if the
setup routine is used, the DBM will wipe out its point database and all of its accumulated trend data.
Editing the address by hand in this manner will allow the database and trends to be retained.
1. Some DBM’s have the CMOS setting to the state where it will not boot from an MS-DOS bootable
diskette. This must be changed for the following procedure to work. This is operation is BIOS specific.
Refer to the documentation that came with the system. Change this parameter to make the first boot
device be the diskette.
2. Place the DBM Release diskette into the A: drive and cycle power (i.e., power off then power on) to
start executing the installation procedure present on the diskette. You should see the following
message:

DBM Startup complete
The change any of the setup parameters perform the following steps.
The Time Zone must be set in the DBM to coincide with the time zone set under Win/NT on the
maxSTATION.
So, basically:
Configure the Time Zone under the Win/NT Adjust Time function, denoting the sign and amount of
hours offset shown next to the zone selected.
Edit the Timeconf.dat file on the DBM to be the same amount, but the opposite sign.
Example:
Beijing, China is + 8 under Win/NT configuration

4. Getting Started
4.1 Overview
____________________________________________________________________________________
SPECIAL NOTE:
First, in order to have the station start up as a maxSTATION, you MUST logon as the user
account, “operator” or “engineer” which was created in the initial installation of maxDNA
software. Logging on to the station as “Administrator” will prevent interactive maxSTATION
software from executing automatically.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
After logging on as “operator”; the maxSTATION Startup Window will appear, and automatically start up
the underlying system and software backplane logic. You will see a series of messages such as the
following:
After this startup is complete, this window will minimize by itself. At this time, the station is ready for
your use. The following section outlines the major maxSTATION icons now located on your desktop,
while the next section titled “Tray Area Icons” briefly explains the icons located on the tray area (lower
right corner).
Release 1.0 and later includes auto login and restricts the ability for the operator to shut down the station or
to change applications. The following procedure should be followed to shut down the Operator’s Station.
-- While holding down the <Alt> key, repeatedly press the <Tab> key until the maxSTATION Startup
application appears in the dialog box.
-- Select the [Stop Station] box and wait for the station to completely shut down.
-- Press three keys at the same time <Ctrl><Alt><Del> to bring up the dialog box.
-- Enter the supervisor password set during the installation process.
-- Select <End Session>
You may now start any of the major application listed below. This is accomplished by locating the
respective desktop or Start Menu icon and either double clicking the desktop icon or clicking the Start
Menu icon. The maxSTATION applications can be opened and closed as many times as you wish without
stopping and restarting the maxSTATION Startup application.
maxTOOLS
maxVUE Editor
maxVUE Runtime
MCS Transfer Tool
History Reports
Performance Calcs Runtime
Performance Calcs Maintenance
Only after you have closed the last maxSTATION application, and you no longer wish your workstation to
be a maxSTATION, that you will want to maximize maxSTATION Startup window (now located on your
tskbar at the bottom of your screen), and click on the button, labeled; “Stop Station”. This will cause all the
maxSTATION system and software backplane logic to shutdown. You will see a series of messages such
as the following appear in the window (similar to when the maxSTATION started up).
Once this has completed, all maxSTATION software should be shutdown and no maxSTATION icons
should appear on the tray area.
The following is a list of the icons you can normally expect to see in the tray area. Any of these processes
can be viewed by clicking on these icons. This will present you with a window for that process. This
information is mainly here at this time for diagnostic purposes.
SPECIAL NOTES:
1. If viewing any of these processes; please remember to always select the
“hide” or “minimize” button (not close, exit, or kill). Selecting close or exit at this
time will shutdown the process and your maxSTATION will not function properly.
Logoff the workstation, and then log back on (remembering to use the “operator” account,
and not “Adminstrator”.)
Call up the maxSTATION Startup window and first, “Stop Station”, and once that has
completed, “Start Station”.
On startup there can be times that the mouse is not detected. The symptom is that there is no cursor. If
this occurs, simply restart the station using <ctrl><alt><delete> and select Shut Down and restart the
system. This should clear the problem.
