This procedure is necessary for multiple users who want to work in thin client mode with SmartPlant, IDEAL, the Smart Electrical Interface, or DCS Vendor Interfaces.  You need to modify the Registry Path key for Smart Instrumentation for each user so that it points to the location mapped to each user's home folder.  For example, you can map this location to U:\SmartPlant\Instrumentation, which is actually C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\SmartPlant\Instrumentation and then you change the system path parameter accordingly to U:\SmartPlant\Instrumentation so that it affects all users.  This way, when a user starts Smart Instrumentation, the application uses the individual Intools.ini file in the location specified for that user.

For 32-bit operating systems, do the following:

  1. In the Registry, expand the tree to display HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Intergraph\Intools.

  2. Note the value of the parameter CurVer (for example, 09.00.01.0104).

  3. Go to Registry location HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Intergraph\Intools\09.00.01.0104 (in this example).

  4. Modify the value of the Path parameter so that it points to the location of the Intools.ini file for each individual user, which in this case was defined as U:\SmartPlant\Instrumentation.

For 64-bit operating systems, do the following:

  1. In the Registry, expand the tree to display HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Intergraph\INTOOLS.

  2. Select the INTOOLS folder.

  3. Note the value of the parameter CurVer (for example, 11.00.00.0530).

  4. Expand the INTOOLS folder and select 11.00.00.0530 (in this example) folder.

  5. Modify the value of the Path parameter so that it points to the location of the Intools.ini file for each individual user, which in this case was defined as U:\SmartPlant\Instrumentation.
