Expedite 3D 8.2.2 Install Instructions
1]Download the Expedite 3D e3d822.exe to your desktop or other folder,
preferably to a 'virgin Win2000/XP machine, or a machine where any existing
Trial or other E3D version has been Uninstalled. (NEVER Install directly to
a machine where you are using E3D for Production, without first Backing Up
the entire E3W80 Directory!). 2]
Install by clicking on the e3d822.exe just Downloaded. This should launch the
InstallShield installation
program. 2]
During the installation, follow the on-screen instructions to complete the
installation. RECOMMENDED - take all defaults, including local Folders. (If
you have network drives, change to them later by modifying CONFIG.AI) 3]
When first run, E3D will present a 'Registration' splash screen. You will
see a 'hash code' consisting of four (4) groups of eight (8) hexadecimal
characters (0-9, A-F) separated by hyphens. Carefully write down - or better
paste - this hash code to the correct block in the Registration Webform at: http://www.softwaremagic.com/register/register_E3D.htm.
Fill out the form completely and send it. If its OK - you will get a
'success' confirmation page back. Your 30-day unlock code - if approved -
will be returned within 24 hrs. Alternatively,
you may email your registration request to: smi@aii.com.
Be sure 'E3D Registration Request' is in the Subject line. Include your
Name, Company Name, and Address - or the Request may not get processed. We
will return a 30-day Trial Unlock Code. Note:
E3D outputs a 'generic' cl-file - or 'cutter location' file. (Sometimes
called 'generic APT'). In order to get a 'tape'/MCD for your machine tool,
you must 'PostProcess' using a 'PostProcessor' of your choice. Most E3D
users also use our Intellipost 6.0 PostProcessor for this. Intellipost is
also available for 30-day Trial Download at this site. ** If you receive
any errors during the installation, please email smi@softwaremagic.com
