Accelerator Controls Software for Home PC's

Instructions for installing software for running Acceelerator Controls programs on your home PC or other PC not managed by the Accelerator Division. These installers will work on 64-bit versions of Windows 11 or Windows 10. Install the programs in the order listed. You may need to temporarily disable your PC's real-time anti-virus protection to be able to run the Cygwin X and Customizations installers.

Install MIT Kerberos for Windows

Install MIT Kerberos for Windows 3.2. (If V4.* is installed, uninstall it first.)

Download and install both the 64-bit and 32-bit versions https://www-bd.fnal.gov/controls/installers/kfw-amd64-3_2_2_5-fermi.msi

and https://www-bd.fnal.gov/controls/installers/kfw-i386-3_2_2_5-fermi.msi

Install the Cygwin X server

Download and install https://www-bd.fnal.gov/controls/consoles/cygwin-x_install.html

Install the latest Accelerator Controls Customizations

Download and install https://www-bd.fnal.gov/controls/consoles/acnet-custom-installer.html

OPTIONAL: Install WinSCP

If you want to transfer control system files to/from your PC, you can also download and install WinSCP, available at: https://winscp.net/eng/docs/introduction

At this point, you should have "Accelerator Controls", "Cygwin-X", "Kerberos for Windows", and "PuTTY" menus in Windows "Start".
