About the Install Niagara R2 wizard

From the main Platform view, double-click Platform Administration to access the platform view with the option (button) to Install Niagara R2.

The Install Niagara R2 button is available only when platform connected to a retrofit board type controller (JACE-603 or JACE-645) that is new (uncommissioned), or that was previously configured for NiagaraAX. In either case, the “Niagara R2 Support” property is listed as disabled.

After you run the wizard launched by this button, future access of this platform view shows an “Uninstall Niagara R2” button instead (to reconfigure the unit as a NiagaraAX JACE, if desired). The “Niagara R2 Support” property is then listed as enabled.

When you click Install Niagara R2, the first of several wizard dialogs appears.

As shown in Figure 5, most selectable options are checked by default.

Selected options appear as a separate steps in subsequent dialogs as you advance (Next) in the wizard. Note the following about using this wizard:

Throughout the wizard’s dialogs, use the buttons Back and Next, as needed, to retrace (or skip) steps. Also, the Cancel button exits the wizard after your confirmation—no operations are performed as a result.
Before committing to the final sequence of steps, the wizard provides a final summary for you to review. If necessary, you can step back in the wizard to make changes.

Start the Install Niagara R2 wizard after making a platform connection to the JACE-603 or JACE-645.
