- Run the installer as administrator and keep the default path unless your company standard requires otherwise.
- If a controller or robot connection will be used, allow the software through the Windows firewall when prompted.

Tips from Real Projects
A harvester fleet kept parameter sets per machine version on the service laptop; after a controller swap, the machine ran with its own character instead of defaults. On mobile machines, the parameters ARE the machine — back them up like production data.
