Installing Automatically Using ActiveX

If the system does not have the Enterprise PDM Web client components installed, an automatic ActiveX installation starts as soon as you browse to an Enterprise PDM Web share.

To install using ActiveX:

  1. On the client system, browse to the Enterprise PDM Web share URL.

    A small ActiveX component is downloaded and a security warning is displayed.

  2. Select Install to proceed.

    After the security certificate is approved, the installation software downloads the basic Web access components for the Enterprise PDM Web client and installs them automatically.

  3. In the Enterprise PDM Web client interface that appears, log onto the Web share.

    As you work with the Enterprise PDM Web client, additional components are downloaded and installed as needed. Most of these components are small in file size and do not cause a noticeable delay.

    To install all components at once, use one of the other installation methods.
