              Introduction

 

If an online connection to our http server “www.3dhistech.com” is not available and you feel the inspiration to use the manual, or the scanner in the field does not provide an internet connection, a local (offline) version may be helpful.

 

·       The procedure to store the manual on your PC, laptop or tablet needs of course an online connection to download the version from our http server, but then the local version may be browsed without further online connection.

·       If an internet connection is not available during browsing the manual, linked chapters from the web can not be reached; an error will occur. Otherwise, if an internet connection is available, the local version will work in the same way as the online version, without any restrictions.

 

The following chapter introduces a method to get the local version from the server and store it on the storage media.

 

To do this, the download transfer option of the installed browser is used. If the connection to the server is realized the files can be transferred to your hard disk drive.

 

·      Images with blue frame (in the entire manual) contain a link to the relevant chapter

 

·      The content of the folder may be changed any time!

 

 

Requirements

 

·       About 17GB of free HDD capacity on the destination drive; self extracting download files and final version together.

·       Installed website browser (e.g. FireFox)

·       Internet connection to perform the download procedure

·       Required time: about 30 minutes or more for the entire manual, depending on the transfer speed

·       See also:      Hints for Android®

 

Steps

·       Create the folder "pssm" for the final version of the manual; it may be renamed any time

·       Download the files, numbered from 01 – 18 into the created folder.

·       If all files are downloaded, run the self extracting (“*.exe”) Zip-files

·       Finally, if the local manual works as required, the self extracting files may be deleted from the destination drive; about 8.5GB will be freed up from the HDD.

 

                   Update or upgrade

 

·       If an offline version of the manual already exists on your HDD, an update of the manual may be performed by downloading and extracting of only relevant files; accordingly information can be found in the chapter “Version history”.

 

                Download assistant

 

                        For downloading the entire manual, run the file DL_Assistant

 

 

 

 

 

 

Download procedure

 

 The procedure is described for the browser “FireFox”; if another browser is used, shown images differ.

 

 

 

                   Browser settings

 

·       The steps are shown for the download procedure of the entire manual.

·       Details of the manual’s construction can be found in the chapter “Structure of the manual

 

 

 

·       Make a folder “pssm” for example, on the destination disk.

 

·       Prepare the browser settings: Set the created download folder as default folder or select “Always ask me where to save files”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 In the browser locate the website “http://www.3dhistech.com/data/pssm/DL/”; type in the text

Start the download procedure by click on the file name

 

·       Click on “1_control.exe

·       The sequence of downloading the files is not important!

 

·       The content of the folder may be changed any time!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The browser asks for downloading the file

 

·       Click “Save File”

·       The sequence of downloading the files is not important!

 

 

 

Hint

·      To shorten the download time (if a high bandwidth is available) you may start the download process of several files; it’s not needed to wait until the download process of the file in progress is finished!

·      Regardless the bandwidth available, the download procedure of 2 files should be always in progress (recommended) until downloading finished.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If the download procedure of all files is finished, the files are stored in the previously created folder.

 

Now, run the self extracting “*.exe” files; their content is compressed with “7-Zip”.

                   Hints for Android

 

1.      Load down the “*.exe” files as described above

2.      Because the self extracting zip-files can not run on android, please rename the file extension from “exe” into “zip”; this way, the “exe”-part of the archive will be ignored!

3.      Load down onto your android equipment the “7-zip”; android version “7Zipper” and start it.

4.      Decompress the renamed self-extracting files; these will create the manual structure and be extracted as a 7-zip archive!

5.      The steps are executed as described in the chapter “On Laptops and Desktops
