Install For a Web Browser User

Occasional users who will manage links between documents and asset tags and who prefer to use a web browser can use Meridian PowerWeb. For these users, the PowerWeb pages must also be enabled as described in ObjectsPage_IsVisible event and WhereUsedPage_IsVisible event in the Accruent Meridian Enterprise VBScript API Reference.

To install the PowerWeb components:

  1. On each client computer, start the Meridian Enterprise setup program as described in the Accruent Meridian Enterprise Administrator's Guide.

  2. On the Select Components page, select the Meridian PowerWeb option and proceed as described in the Accruent Meridian Enterprise Administrator's Guide.

  3. If the Meridian Enterprise vault documents use references extensively or maintenance management system users will redline the documents to initiate engineering change orders, the Enable PowerWeb Client components option must be enabled for each user.

    This can be done by each user by setting their personal preferences in PowerWeb. To enable the option centrally for all users, set the DownLoadDocumentWithRefs value of the following registry key to 1 on the Meridian Enterprise web server:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Cyco\AutoManager Meridian\CurrentVersion\Weblink\UserPreferences\Default\
    Note:

    This step is not necessary if only Adobe PDF documents will be viewed. Meridian will use Adobe Reader, if installed.

  4. If a custom asset management system link program will be run locally, install it at this time.
