Prepare the PI Manual Logger Web Application Server

PI Manual Logger Windows 2014 must be installed and the PI Manual Logger Windows database configured before you run the PI Manual Logger Web installation.

Set up the PI Manual Logger Web Application Server computer to connect to the PI Manual Logger database by downloading the installation kit and enabling Windows Server Manager roles and features. For more information, refer to Microsoft documentation.

1. Install Roles and Features from the Microsoft Server Manager application.
