�uick Installation – Windows

To install GTS Framework with a local license, please proceed as follows.


Details may vary on your system; see reverse side or Installation manual.

Get Setup File


Visit [Link]
and go to Resources > Download Software, Manuals.
Choose the 64-bit Windows installation file:
Setup_GTS_Framework_release..._x??_b00.exe

When asked, enter your MyGTS credentials (or register for


a new MyGTS account).

Run Setup
Run the setup file and follow the instructions of the GTS
Framework Setup Wizard.
If prompted, install or update your Java version (Download
at [Link], choose 32-bit or 64-bit according to your
Windows version).
When finished, the wizard will start GTS Framework.

Put License File in Place


When GTS Framework requests a license file,
choose "YES" to open the license folder.
Then, open the email message from GTS which contains
your license file.
Put your license file into the opened folder.
You can probably drag and drop the file there, or use copy-
and-paste (see reverse page for details).
Close the license folder.

Start GTS Framework


To run GTS Framework, double-click on the GTS
Framework icon on your Desktop (if created) or in the GTS
Framework section in the Windows Start menu.

In case of problems, please see reverse side or contact support@[Link]


Details & Troubleshooting
General
• For installation, you will need administrative privileges on your machine or you might
need to contact your system administrator.
• On Windows Vista, Windows 7, 8 and 10, user account control (UAC) will prompt for
confirmation during the setup procedure – please confirm the respective dialogs.

Step 1
• MyGTS is a personal area of the GTS website at [Link]
If you do not have an account yet, please register.
• To determine whether your Windows XP system is 32 or 64 bit:
In the Windows Start menu (or maybe on the Desktop), right-click the "My Computer"
icon, and select "Properties". Under "System" look for the term "x64 Edition" – if it is not
there, you are running 32-bit Windows.
• To determine whether your Windows Vista or Windows 7 system is 32 or 64 bit:
Click the Start button, right-click "Computer" and select "Properties", then look for the
term "System type".

Step 2
• If your operating system is 64-bit, your web browser might still be 32-bit and use a 32-bit
version of Java for web applicatios. However, to run GTS Framework locally, you will need
the 64-bit version of Java (it is ok to have both installed in parallel).

Step 3
• If you do not have a license file, please contact support@[Link].
• Depending on your system, there can be several ways of putting the file in place:
Click to drag the file and drop it into the license folder window.
Or: Right-click the file and choose "copy", then switch back to the license folder window
and select "edit - paste" from the menu.
Or: Right-click the file, choose "save as..." and navigate to the license folder.

Running GTS Framework


• The desktop icon points to the file [Link] which resides in the GTS instal-
lation folder. You can also run this file directly, if you prefer.

Requesting a Specific License File


• Regular licenses are bound to host IDs. Requesting a license is a simple process:
On the Framework Home (topmost tab of the green Tools column), choose the "System"
page. Click the button "License information". In the upcoming dialog, click "Create e-mail
request" and send the resulting message.

More Details: Installation Manual


• For further details, or to prepare for command-line usage, please refer to the GTS Frame-
work Installation Manual (Start menu / included in the documentation subfolder of
the installation directory, created in step 2). Alternatively, you can download it from the
document library at [Link]

Common questions

Powered by AI

To install the GTS Framework on a 64-bit Windows system, the following steps are necessary: Choose the appropriate 64-bit installation file and run the setup, following the wizard's instructions. When the license file is requested, choose 'YES' to open the license folder, and place your license file into the folder. Ensure you have a compatible Java version installed, either 32-bit or 64-bit based on your browser, but specifically 64-bit for the GTS Framework. Finally, launch the GTS Framework executable from the desktop or Start menu .

Contacting GTS support would be necessary if there are unresolved installation issues, missing license files, or technical difficulties beyond the scope of provided documentation. The recommended contact method is via email at support@globaltcad.com, allowing users to describe their issues comprehensively and receive paced, documented assistance .

The desktop icon for the GTS Framework serves as a shortcut to the 'gtsframework.bat' file located in the installation folder, facilitating user access by allowing users to launch the framework directly from the desktop without navigating the file system. This improves usability and quickens access to the application .

Having both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Java installed ensures compatibility across different applications and system configurations. While the GTS Framework specifically requires the 64-bit version of Java for optimal performance, maintaining a 32-bit version might be necessary for other applications relying on a 32-bit web browser. This dual installation ensures both the framework and other applications can operate simultaneously without compatibility issues .

To request a specific license file, access the 'License information' section in the GTS Framework, create an email request from the provided dialog, and send it. This process might be necessary to bind a license file to host IDs, ensuring the framework is uniquely licensed for specific hardware configurations .

Administrative privileges are important during the installation of the GTS Framework to ensure all components can be installed correctly, as certain setup actions might alter system files or settings. These privileges are required to confirm dialogs from User Account Control on Windows Vista, 7, 8, and 10, allowing necessary permissions for setup completion .

If issues are encountered during the GTS Framework installation, reference the reverse pages for troubleshooting steps or contact the support team at support@globaltcad.com. It’s essential to verify system compatibility and ensure all steps, especially those involving permissions and file placements, are executed correctly .

The process of placing the license file involves opening the license folder when prompted, then either dragging and dropping the file, using copy-paste methods, or right-clicking the file to 'save as' into the license folder. These methods accommodate different user preferences and technical abilities, ensuring the license file is correctly positioned for software activation .

To determine whether a Windows system is 32-bit or 64-bit, on Windows XP, right-click 'My Computer', and select 'Properties' to check for 'x64 Edition'. On Windows Vista or Windows 7, the 'System type' can be found in the 'Properties' of 'Computer'. This distinction is crucial for installing the correct version of Java, as the GTS Framework requires the 64-bit version for proper operation, ensuring compatibility with a 64-bit web browser, even if a 32-bit browser might be in use .

Trademark regulations ensure the legal use of names like Oracle, Java, and Windows, as acknowledged in the GTS Framework documentation. This compliance is important to respect intellectual property laws and avoid potential legal issues, while also accurately attributing ownership of frequently used software tools and operating systems to their respective companies .
