Installing Workbench

The BACnet drivers (bacnet, bacnetAws and bacnetOws) are available through Workbench palettes. No special driver installation is required. This procedure summarizes how to install the Niagara Framework and Workbench.
Prerequisites: Your network includes a Supervisor PC.
  1. Download the Niagara software image ZIP file to any folder on your hard drive.
  2. Extract all files from the ZIP file.
  3. Open Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder you just created and run the installer executable (Installer_x64.exe).
    The installation wizard opens.
  4. Follow the wizard, confirming that the check box: “This instance of Workbench will be used as an installation tool” is enabled.
    This option ensures that Workbench has the needed distribution files (.dist files) for commissioning various models of remote platforms. The .dist files are located under your install folder in a sw\dist subfolder.
When the wizard completes the installation it confirms that the software is licensed and launches Workbench.
