User setup guide
Setting up mXrap on your PC? Here's a quick guide to using your licence.
Software needed
-
Head to Downloads and download the necessary installers. You will need mXrap and CodeMeterRuntime to start using mXrap. The username and password to access the downloads will have been sent to you during setup - email if you don't have them.
-
Install CodeMeterRuntime.exe. This small application will allow your PC to communicate with the mXrap licence servers. The installation options should be left as default.
This step requires local admin access.
- Install mXrap with the default installation options. This does not require admin privileges and installs to
%localappdata%. This will install 3 new applications, which can be found in the Start Menu.
