At least 10 MB of disk space.
At least 128 MB of RAM; 256 MB is recommended.
Internet Explorer version 5.0 or higher or Netscape version 4.01 or higher.
Java 2 Runtime Environment (JRE), Standard Edition, version 1.2.2_08 (available from http://www.javasoft.com or the Design Studio CD-ROM).
A VGA color monitor with a graphics card capable of showing 16-bit color or higher. A minimum screen resolution of 640 x 480. Recommended resolution is 1280 x 1024.
Network connection to the CTE 1400.

To install Design Studio, perform these steps:

Step 1 If JRE 1.2.2 is not already installed on your computer, install it.

Step 2 Insert the Design Studio CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive.

If auto-start is enabled on your computer, the installer starts.

If auto-start is not enabled on your computer, double-click the drive icon for your CD-ROM, and then double-click CTE 1400 Design Studio.exe.

Step 3 Follow the instructions in the installer.

By default, Design Studio is installed in C:\Program Files\Cisco\CTE 1400\ Design Studio\2.0.

Step 4 Follow the instructions in Chapter 2 of the Design Studio User Guide to install and configure the wireless device simulators used to preview and test your work in Design Studio.

Starting Design Studio

To start Design Studio, you need the following login information from the administrator who set up the CTE 1400:

Your username and password
The IP address of the CTE 1400
The server upload port number

To start Design Studio, perform these steps:

Step 1 From the Windows Start menu, choose Program Files > Cisco > CTE 1400 > Design Studio.

Step 2 Enter your username and password.

Step 3 Enter the IP address of the CTE 1400.

Step 4 If necessary, change the upload port number.

The default upload port number is 9001. You might need to change the port number if your firewall redirects ports. Contact your CTE administrator if you do not know which port to use.

Step 5 Click OK.

If you cannot connect to a CTE 1400, verify that your computer has a network connection to a running CTE 1400. Contact your CTE administrator for help.
