Prerequisites

The Prediktor APIS client libraries are not included in the FrameworX installation. Get them from your Prediktor APIS installation and copy them to the computer that runs FrameworX before you use this connector.

Install the APIS software supplied by Prediktor, or use a computer where it is already installed.
Copy the files listed below from the APIS installation to the FrameworX Protocols folder. In a default installation this is C:\Program Files\Tatsoft\FrameworX\fx-10\Protocols. Administrator rights are required to copy files into the installation folder.
Copy OpcNetApi.Prediktor.dll and OpcNetApi.Com.Prediktor.dll to the parent folder as well (C:\Program Files\Tatsoft\FrameworX\fx-10).
Restart the Designer and the runtime.
