The selected products/components will be installed/upgraded.

By default, the following components are selected when you install an Industrial Graphics Server.

• Plant SCADA Industrial Graphics Server

• Plant SCADA Deployment Client.

You can use this page to customize the list of selected components.

Licensing for AVEVA Industrial Graphics is managed using the AVEVA Enterprise Licensing system. If you do not have access to an existing Enterprise License Server, you will need to include the following components in your installation.

• AVEVA Enterprise License Manager

• AVEVA Enterprise License Server.

If an Enterprise License Server is already set up, you will still need the License Manager to access it.

Note: Plant SCADA 2023 R2 installs version 4.0 of AVEVA Enterprise Licensing. If your system includes computers that are not upgraded to AEL 4.0, you will need to install AVEVA Enterprise Licensing Server Legacy Support on your Enterprise License Server. This enables backwards compatibility for clients nodes that are running an earlier version of AEL.

Access Restriction

This page provides information about the local Windows groups the installer will create to manage security (see the section Windows User Groups and Security Roles in the topic Installation Information).

Note: This page will only appear if you are installing Plant SCADA on a clean computer (one that has not hosted an earlier version). If you are upgrading from an earlier version, equivalent user groups will already exist on the computer.

If you want your current Windows user account to be included in the groups that are being created, select Add the current Windows user to these groups.

A dialog will let you know that the group membership changes will not occur until after a restart.
