  • Rename the existing bin directory (X:\vitalsigns\bin) as bin_ccyymmdd
  • Delete any old bin backup directories that might have been created during a previous installation.
  • Backup the config files:
  • Create a backup config directory: X:\vitalsigns\CUNAME\data\config_ccyymmdd
  • Copy all files (do not copy the Campaigns sub-directory) from X:\vitalsigns\CUNAME\data\config into the backup directory.
  • Delete any old config backup directories that might have been created during a previous installation.

  • Open the zip file and copy the bin and module files into X:\vitalsigns\bin

Install New Sample Config Files
