TRANSCRIPT

(open in window)

[00:00] Installing Ignition on a Windows operating system is pretty
straightforward. You just need to download the installer file from the downloads
page of our website inductiveautomation.com and then run that file. I already
have the downloaded installer executable here so I'm just going to double click
on it to run and then the installer process is going to begin. We're greeted
with the Ignition installer, clicking the next button allows us to walk through
the installation process.

[00:32] This section allows us to specify an installation directory as well as a
gateway service name, I'm going to leave these settings at their defaults and
then click next. We can then choose if we want to do a typical installation or a
custom installation. A custom installation is going to allow us to choose which
modules we want to install while a typical installation will install a standard
set of the most common modules. Note that the modules you install could be
subject to licensing or addition constraints so if you're planning on installing
Ignition Edge or Maker editions, there's not much point in installing modules
that aren't supported.

[01:03] That said, I'll stick with the typical option and then click next. Now
that we've made all of our selections, we're ready to begin the installation. So
I can click the install button and we'll get the install process started. You'll
notice the installation process is very quick, it'll usually take less than
three minutes. Additionally, you may have noticed that we didn't have to install
Java first before we ran the installer. As if Ignition 8, Java comes prepackaged
with the Ignition installation. So we don't need to install or manage it
separately. So we can see that the Installer has finished running and we're
ready to start the Ignition service. So I'm going to click on the finish button
which will go ahead and start Ignition.

[01:40] Now when you install Ignition 8 for the first time, your web browser is
going to open up to a page like this. This welcome page takes us through a
process known as commissioning. Commissioning allows us to set up our gateway
for the first time including selecting which edition we'd like to use and
setting up ports and login info for our gateway. First we have to select which
Ignition edition we'd like to use on our gateway. So we can choose between the
standard Ignition platform, Ignition Maker Edition or Ignition Edge. I'll just
go ahead and select Ignition. Next we have the end-user License Agreement. You
can go ahead and read through that and when you've done that you can click on
the radio button next to I have read and agree with the terms and conditions
then click the next button to proceed. This next page allows us to create our
first user account which will be used for logging into the gateway web page and
designer at least initially.

[02:28] So maybe I'll give my user a user name of Ignition next we need to
provide a password so we recommend entering in a strong password since these
credentials are used for access to the gateway's most sensitive areas. The
password strength meter on the right lets me know that I've typed in a strong
password so I'm going to go ahead and click on the blue next icon down at the
bottom right. This last page allows us to configure which ports the Ignition
gateway should run on. The default HTTP port is 8088 and the default HTTPS port
is 8043 but we can change them here if we wanted to.

[03:00] I'm going to leave those at the defaults and click on the blue finish
setup button in the bottom right hand corner. Now that we finished setting up
things for the first time we're ready to click the start gateway button. So I'm
going to go ahead and click on that and the Ignition gateway service is going to
finish starting up. One useful note, the user profile and port settings we've
configured can always be changed at a later time in later videos we'll take a
look at how we can make those changes. When the Ignition service finishes
starting up, we're greeted with the Gateway home page where we're ready to
navigate over to the config tab and start setting up connections or open up our
designer and start building our application.
