Installing and Removing WintermTM 3000 Series Firmware and Add-ons using Rapport Scripts – ReadMe

 

Thank you for your interest in Winterm™ 3000 Series Firmware and/or Add-ons. For your convenience, the Firmware and Add-ons come with Rapport scripts that you can use to easily install and remove the software on your Thin Client.

 

Note: There may be an additional Rapport script packaged in the .exe files for both the Firmware and Add-ons.

 

IMPORTANT: Add-ons that can be installed on Winterm™ 3000 Thin Clients with version 2.12 only are not affected.

Purpose of this Documentation

The purpose of this documentation is to provide information on how to use the Rapport scripts to install and remove the software for the Winterm™ 3000 Series Firmware and Add-ons. Before you use the Rapport scripts, ensure that you know the Rapport version and the Winterm™ 3000 Series version that you are currently running. You must use the correct Rapport script for your versions of Rapport and Winterm™ 3000 Series when installing Firmware and when installing or removing an Add-on.

Using Rapport Scripts for the WintermTM 3000 Series Firmware and Add-ons

To install the software on your Thin Client, point Rapport to the script of the Firmware or Add-on that you want to install and click on the script name

(the .exe files may contain an additional Rapport script).

Note that:

  • This script was created to accommodate Rapport version 4.0 while installing Firmware onto Winterm™ 3000 Thin Clients with versions 2.12, 4.x (CE .NET), and 5.0 (CE) installed.
  • The script can be denoted with cen at the end of the script’s filename.
