To get WinLoG RT up and running, the program first needs to be installed on your computer. The program can be downloaded from GAEA's website at http:\\www.gaeatech.com\public\WinlogRT4_Setup.msi.

 

WinLoG RT requires the following hardware and software to run efficiently:

•Windows 8 or above (32 or 64 bit)

•At least 8 GB of RAM

•At least 120 GB of hard disk space

•A graphics adapter that supports OpenGL version 2 or higher

 

When installing WinLoG RT you must be logged in as an administrator.

 

The following steps occur during the installation:

•The WinLoG RT application is installed on your computer

•Files for the databases and data store are copied to your computer

•Shortcuts are placed on your Start menu and desktop

 

After the application has been installed, there are a few more steps before it is ready for use. The datastore needs to be setup and example projects can be imported. All these steps are accomplished by running the WinLoG RT for the first time. The program can be started using the icon on your desktop or the WinLoG RT application menu on the Start menu.
