Installation Manual
6. Preconditions
6.1. Installation
For the installation of the TOOLBOX II, the following preconditions are required:

• Use of Windows Fonts in normal size (96 DPI)
• Microsoft Internet Explorer from Version 6.0
• Macromedia Flash Player from Version 7.0 (to play online help tutorial videos), see Installation-DVD
directory \MACROMEDIA or www.macromedia.com

Installation Manual
6.3. Hardware
The hardware requirements necessary differ depending on the operation of the TOOLBOX II.
Thereby it is to distinguish, whether the TOOLBOX II is operated on a local PC, on a network server or
on a terminal server.
In addition, it should be pointed out, that with the memory configuration of the PC, the memory
requirements and also the hard disk space of the operating system and all applications running parallel
to the TOOLBOX II (e.g. Microsoft Access, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Outlook etc.) have to be
considered.

Installation Manual
From TOOLBOX II Version 4.0, for CAEx plus a dongle for USB or parallel port is provided.
For the operation of CAEx II, a PC with EGA graphics resolution is absolutely necessary. Whether
CAEx II operates fault-free on a PC can be checked with a test program. This test program is located on
the Siemens Homepage www.sicam.de area Downloads TOOLBOX II.
From TOOLBOX II Version 4.0, for CAEx II a dongle for USB or parallel port is
provided.
7. Compatibility
The engineering and consequently the acquisition and modeling of the plant data represent high value
capital goods.
From this consideration it naturally follows, that existing engineering data of the existing
TOOLBOX II Version 3.xx and 4.0 can continue to be used and can be imported into the new Version
4.10.
Backup/Export-Files, that have been created with Version 4.10 cannot be imported into earlier versions
(< Version 4.0).
An Update of TOOLBOX II to Version 4.10 is only possible from Version 3.0 (not from older versions –
refer to chapter 2.1 Updating from Version ).
When importing backups of earlier versions (< 4.0) existing function diagram
data of CAEx plus are automatically converted to the new version of
TOOLBOX II 4.10.
Depending on the scope of the engineering data, this procedure can take
some time.
TOOLBOX II 9
Installation Manual
It is possible to operate every TOOLBOX II Installation as Server (Database). Thereby the following
conditions must be fulfilled on the Server and Client.
Ensure, that the same TOOLBOX II Version is installed on the Server and Client.
PING <Hostname of the Client > | <IP-Address> e.g. PING 192.168.1.11 or PING vcl1234
Note:
You determine the hostname on the Client with the DOS-command HOSTNAME or the
IP-Address with the DOS-command IPCONFIG.
3. ORACLE Configuration:
With a standard installation, the correct Oracle-configuration is set automatically during the
installation.
With problems, ensure that in this configuration file for ORACLE the hostname of the server is
entered correctly. You can open and edit this file with the Windows NOTEPAD.

Installation Manual
Create a directory \TBIIDATA and enable this for other users in the network under the name
'TBIIDATA' (network resource). Assign the network resource 'TBIIDATA' a free drive letter.
Note:
You need this drive for plant data that are not stored in the database (CAEx II).
In the Customers and System Technique Wizard, this drive letter must be specified as CAEx II
drive (changes are possible in the plant management).
Ensure, that with Firewall installed and activated, the Server does not block the Oracle PORT
1521, so that the access to the Server database can take place.
Ensure, that by enabling network resources on the server, the TCP-Ports 139 and 445 are not
blocked.

Installation Manual
The user must preset the server database on the TOOLBOX II Client in the tool Presets TOOLBOX II.
Ensure, that the same TOOLBOX II Version is installed on the Server and Client.
PING <Hostname of the Server > | <IP-Address> e.g. PING 192.168.1.11 or PING vcl1234
Note:
You determine the hostname on the Server with the DOS-command HOSTNAME or the
IP-Address with the DOS-command IPCONFIG.
Verify the Oracle database connection from the Client to the Server with the following DOS-
command:
With problems, check the file TNSNAMES.ORA described in the following point.
Replace the entry COMPUTERNAME_SERVER with the hostname or the IP-address of the
Server. You can open and edit this file with Windows NOTEPAD.

In the Customers and System Technique Wizard, as CAEx II drive, that drive letter must be
specified which is linked with the enabling of the project data on the Server (changes are possible
in the plant management).

Installation Manual
9. Web-Engineering
It is possible to operate the TOOLBOX II with the Remote-Desktop-Connection. Thereby all TOOLBOX
II Clients work with a central Terminal-Server, on which the TOOLBOX II is installed.
On the Client, no TOOLBOX II Installation is necessary. The function can be used from Microsoft
standard application Remote-Desktop-Connection (All Programs | Accessories | Communications).
On this Server a TOOLBOX II Installation is then performed with additional Server and Web-Server
License.
A detailed description of the configuration of the Web-Server and the Client can be found in the
Online Help (chapter web.engineering).
