Installing XRD data analysis software

The main data analysis software available to all users of the Nanolabs XRD equipment is Rigaku SmartLab Studio II. This software can be installed freely on you own computer, the computer has to be on the DTU Network, either as a regular DTU computer or by VPN to obtain a network license. To install SmartLab Studio on you own computer either watch the video or follow the guide below. Installation video guide is found here:

Install DTU Local Admin

For installing you will need administrator privileges on the computer. At DTU you can gain this by installing “DTU Local Admin” from the “DTU software center”. In DTU Local Admin you can enable a local admin account, which can be used to gain elevated privileges for installation.

  • Open “DTU Software Center” and search for and install “DTU Local Admin”.
  • Open “DTU Local Admin” and enable the local admin account. Note down the user (normally “.\adm-local”) and the password (randomly generated). This will be needed later.

Install and configure CodeMeter

  • Open Install CodeMeter (Needs DTU network)
  • Go to CleanroomDrive/_equipment/XRD/SmartLAbStudioII/ and run CodeMeterRuntime.exe to install Code Meter
  • Use the .\adm-local account to elevate the privileges and complete the install.
  • Open “CodeMeter Control Center” and click om WebAdmin.
  • On the web page, click on "Configuration" at the top bar. A tab named “Server Search List” will be shown. Click on “add new Server” and type “rigaku.ait.dtu.dk” and press add.
  • Click “Apply to save changes.
  • You can now close the WebAdmin page and CodeMeter control center.

Installation of SmartLab Studio II

Setting up SmartLab Studio II database

  • Open Configure SmartLab Studio II SQL connection (Needs DTU network)
  • Use the .\adm-local account to elevate the privileges.

    • SQL login name: RigakuDB
    • Password: Renrum12
  • Click Connection and wait for confirmation, the click apply.
  • You can now open SmartLab Studio II and use you on credentials for logging in.
