However, you may need to select additional modules, including a few not directly related to the contents of the station selected for installation. Examples include lexicon module(s), or some modules related to Platform Services. Or, you may know that the Edge device will need one or more modules in the future (say for a driver), and you wish to install them now.

In general, do not select modules if you are not sure they are needed. You can manage software modules anytime later, using the Software Manager. Also, if you install a station later, the Station Copier will automatically prompt for confirmation to install any additional modules deemed necessary.

 NOTE: It is the recommended security best practice to update to the latest software release. 

 NOTE: For cases described below, install the following additional module(s) to enable options.

• Select either (or both) “theme”-related modules: themeLucid-ux, themeZebra-ux, depending on how station users are assigned to Web Profiles (for example, Default Hx Profile, Hx Theme=Lucid).
• Note that “standard” lexicon modules appear listed using a module name convention of:

  niagaraLexiconLc-rt

  where Lc is a two-character language code, such as Fr for French or Es for Spanish. It is also possible to make custom lexicon modules using Workbench Lexicon Tools (which can use different naming).
