Important! R_keeper 7 requires licensing. See details in the Licensing section. Starting from version 7.05.03.ХХ, the installation procedure is different. |

- The distribution kit is contained in the installation packages (setup.exe). It is recommended to perform all the new installations using only them, as this will provide an easy upgrade of the system components.
- Releases for upgrading previously installed versions can be found in the STANDALONES directory: they do not contain the TimeKeeper modules, Interactive Reports, and others. When using the STANDALONE distribution kit, these modules will have to be installed and upgraded manually.
- Starting from this version, the cash server is launched only on Windows.
- By default, the cash station is installed with the new user interface. If previous versions are upgraded, the interface remains as it was.

Detailed description
- Copy the installer package archive from the FTP server (ftp://ftp.ucs.ru/rk7/versions/). The archive name indicates its version. If you do not know which version to install, it is better to install the penultimate one or contact the UCS support service.
- Unpack the archive and remove the read-only attribute on the whole package including the sub-folders and files. Add the folder containing r_keeper software to your antivirus exclusions. Further on run all applications as administrator.
- Copy the INI files from the /BIN/WIN/INI folder to the /BIN/WIN folder. Download the RAL.dat file from the licensing website (http://l.ucs.ru/ral.dat) and place it into the /BASE/ folder of the distribution kit. This file allows signing into the manager station as a dealer having unlimited rights, that is important for licensing.
...
To sign in, you can use the «Administrator» username and the password «=». To sign in as dealer (to perform any editing of references), it is required that the /BASE/ folder contains a fresh ral.dat file (see par. 1.2.3).
