Due to the nature of the anti-piracy security technology built into this
product, using illegal keys may lead to software failure or instability.
Before you run the setup file make sure that you close all other programs.
This includes anti-virus software and any other programs that are
running. If you do not follow this procedure it may interfere with the
normal setup procedure.
To start installing the software onto your computer, just make sure your
CD-ROM was placed into the CD-ROM player. Because of its “Autorun”
functionality, the installation program will start automatically. When this
doesn't happen, go to “My Computer” and double click the CD-ROM icon.
Find the AUTORUN folder. Next: double click on the installer (Autorun.exe
file) and follow the instructions displayed on screen.
Now, you are ready to install the application on your computer.

- Install SpectraPro© and run it once
- Install the latest Service Pack for SpectraPro©
- Install the Drivers for HASP Protection Key.
- Configure the SpectraPro© for Windows 7 and Windows 8 Operating
Systems.
2.1 Installing SystemChecker

Sometimes, during SpectraPro © installation, some of the additional files
required by this applications are not installed. This happens when the user
doesn’t have the full administrator privilege during the installation
procedure, or from another unknown reason.
In such a situation, you should also install in your computer the

SystemChecker application.
By doing this, the files required for SpectraPro© will be installed or
properly updated.
The installed files are virus checked and are in accordance with the
Microsoft recommendation.
If you need more details, please read the following article:

3 SpectraPro incompatibility issues
3.1 Local resources

Once installed in a computer (workstation), SpectraPro can open many
Machine databases existing in the computer or across the accessible
Network.
During runtime SpectraPro software creates temporary files in the

application directory (..\SpectraPro). It also creates a temporary directory
under application directory, where the Service Pack package will be
downloaded by Internet.
Every time, SpectraPro uses a series of files (databases or configuration

files).
The format of these databases is MS Access 2007.
12
The databases described below are used exclusively by the SpectraPro

and mustn’t be accessible within the network. SpectraPro.dat databases
and Template.sp7 will be created by the application, if they don’t exist.
3.1.1 Bearing.dat
SpectraPro must have the right to:

 Open exclusive the database
 Read a record
 Modify a record
 Delete a record
 Add a new record.
User access to the database can be tested using an ODBC standard
connection to a MS Access database.
3.1.2 SpectraPro.dat
Code Table - Inspection codes for Route measurements

Setting - Contain Report Headers and Body templates (in RichText
Format)
Server - List of available database server (MS Access)
Register- Contains the link of the registered databases for SpectraPro.
This database is created on the first run of the SpectraPro with default
values.
13
Register Table contains only the DemoPro.sp3 database (included in the

Installation package and placed in the ..\ SpectraPro\Data folder.

 Create the database
 Read a record
 Modify a record
 Delete a record
 Add a new record

connection to a MS Access database.
3.1.3 Template.sp7
This is a database with a complex structure, similar with SpectraPro
databases and it’s used to store the Machine Template.

 Create the database
 Read a record
 Modify a record
 Delete a record
 Add a new record.
connection to a MS Access database
3.1.4 Configuration File SpectraPro.ini

This is a standard Windows INI file, used to store some settings. Although
the majority of the settings are stored in Windows Registry, the INI file
can be manually changed by the user. The user must be able to open the
SpectraPro.ini file with a NotePad editor and to save the changes made.
SpectraPro must have right to:

 Read items
 Add items
 Modify items
3.1.5 Constants.ini file

It contains some coefficients used to create the Diagnosis Reports.
The user must be able to open the Constants.ini file with the NotePad
editor and to save the changes made.

 Read items only.
14
3.2 Public databases

The main purpose of SpectraPro is to create and to update with
measurements and notes, so called “Machine Databases”.
SpectraPro can create an unlimited number of Machine Databases.
SpectraPro can create new databases or to register the existing Machine

Databases created by another SpectraPro instance.
The Installation Package includes a single machine database (MS Access

type), named DemoPro.sp3. This database is installed in the
...\SpectraPro\Data folder.
The most widely used databases are MS Access. These are created as
default in the ...\SpectraPro\Data folder, but the user can decide to create
the database in a shared folder, from his computer.
The databases may be shared by many users across the network. Before
being used, the user must register the databases (in his SpectraPro.dat
database). The databases created by a user are automatically registered
for its SpectraPro instance.
After it was created, the database can be populated and used by any
SpectraPro instance.
15
4 Running SpectraPro
(For Windows 7 and Windows 8 only)
SpectraPro is a safe application.

All the files required by SpectraPro are located in the
SpectraPro installation folder (excepting the Machine
databases).
SpectraPro uses its own Registers to save various settings, legally

created in:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VB and VBA Program
Settings\SpectraPro registry folder.
Also, the SpectraPro application doesn’t need Write access neither to

any system folders nor to any existing folder from the computer.
SpectraPro is running properly having the administrative privileges.
If SpectraPro still doesn’t run properly, you may try to run it under an
Administrator User Account. This might be done in various ways (See
Local Resources above).
An example regarding how to configure manually your Operating System

to run an application from a normal User but with Administrative privilege
can be found in the Addendum A.
A simple solution is to use the RunasSpc or RunasRob applications, found

on http://www.robotronic.de/index.html that allows you to create a
shortcut of SpectraPro with encrypted administrator credentials.
So, the SpectraPro will run with administrative privileges even if it starts
from a normal user account.
RunasSpc Application:
Security patches, software updates, programs and each other software-
package can be installed by the user themselves. without having
administrator privileges. Runasspc will start the application with other
credentials than the logged-on user. The login information for the
application like username and password are read from an encrypted file.
An administrator can specify, e.g. by central encrypt files, which
applications have to start with admin rights.
RunasSpc is compatible with the most file endings like .exe, .msi, .bat,
.cmd, .wsh, .vbs, .msc...
No installation procedure for RunasSpc.
Many users are working under administrator account, because some
programs are missing administrator rights to run correctly.
With Runasspc a standard user has not to login as administrator to run
16
this application.
Surfing the Internet as an administrator makes the system vulnerable to
malware, spyware, viruses and other security risks. Surf with a limited
rights account, the amount of risk decreases dramatically.
Start your application under this limited account with RunasSpc, if you do
not want to enter the password every time.
You want to instruct someone to configure a computer, but you cannot
give him the administrator account information, because you use it also
on other systems?
With runasspc and an encrypted file crypt.spc which starts the computer
console (compmgmt.msc) or a filemanager (like wincommander) based
on administrator account, you can give him full access to this computer.
RunasRob Application:
RunasRob is a further development of RunasSpc.
You can run a specific program with administrator rights under a limited
user account with additional options:
 Bypass the UAC dialog for the allowed application.
 Run application as service.
 Run application as administrator under the own account of the
limited user.
 Run application with administrator rights as limited user from a
specified path you configured in RunasRob.
The authentication is controlled over the NTFS folder permissions, not
over a cryptfile.
This option is a flexible way to allow a group of users and/ or a group of
computers running different specific applications with administrator rights.
An example regarding how to use RunasSpc can be found in the
Addendum B.
17
ADDENDUM A
How to create a shortcut that lets a standard user

to run an application administrator
Want to allow a standard user account to run an application as

administrator without a UAC or password prompt? You can easily create a
shortcut that uses the runas command with the /savecred switch, which
saves the password.
Note that using /savecred could be considered a security hole – a

standard user will be able to use the runas /savecred command to run
any command as administrator without entering a password. However,
it’s still useful for situations where this doesn’t matter much – perhaps
you want to allow a standard user account to run an application as
Administrator without asking you.
We’ve also covered allowing a user to run an application as Administrator

with no UAC prompts by creating a scheduled task.
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/create-administrator-
mode-shortcuts-without-uac-prompts-in-windows-vista/
Enabling the Administrator Account
First you’ll need to enable the built-in Administrator account, which is

disabled by default.
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/enable-the-hidden-
administrator-account-on-windows-vista/
To do so, search for Command Prompt in the Start menu, right-click the
Command Prompt shortcut, and select Run as administrator.
18
Run the following command in the elevated Command Prompt window

that appears:
net user administrator /active:yes
The Administrator user account is now enabled, although it has no

password.
To set a password, open the Control Panel, select User Accounts and
Family Safety, and select User Accounts. Click the Manage another
account link in the User Accounts window.
19
Select the Administrator account, click Create a password, and create a

password for the Administrator account.
Source:
http://www.howtogeek.com/t/windows/page/2/
20
Creating the Shortcut

Now we’ll create a new shortcut that launches the application with Administrator privileges.
Right-click the desktop (or elsewhere), point to New, and select Shortcut.
21
runas /user:ComputerName\Administrator /savecred “C:\Path\To\Program.exe“
Replace ComputerName with the name of your computer and

C:\Path\To\Program.exe with the full path of the program you want to
run. For example, if your computer’s name was Laptop and you wanted to
run SpectraPro, you’d enter the following path:
runas/user:Laptop\Administrator /savecred“C:\ SpectraPro\SpectraPro.exe"
Enter a name for the shortcut.
Press Next and give a name to the shortcut (Ex.SpectraPro)
To select an icon for your new shortcut, just give a right-click on it and
select Properties.
Click the Change Icon button in the Properties window.
22
Select an icon for your

shortcut. For example,
you can browser to
CCleaner.exe and choose
an icon associated with it.
If you’re using another
program, browse to its
.exe file and select your
preferred icon.
23
The first time you double-click your shortcut, you’ll be prompted to enter
the Administrator account’s password, which you created earlier.
Password is typed in “blind”, no cursor movement occur. Be carefully to

type the correct password (Password is case sensitive!).
This password will be saved – the next time you double-click the shortcut,
the application will launch as Administrator without asking you for a
password.
The Administrator password is saved in the Windows Credential Manager.

24
ADDENDUM B
Running SpectraPro
without having administrator privileges
Example:
OrderRunAsSpc at:
http://www.robotronic.de/orderEnForm.php
Change the computer user account with the Admin User (Ex.MICU)
(You need to know the Admnin Password)
Create a folder on your desktop.
Name it. (Ex.SpectraProRunAs).
From the package run: runasspcadmin.exe
25
In Path/Application.exe text box, just browse from SpectraPro.exe.

Click on the dotted button placed on right from Save Cryptfile button and
select the folder created before on the Desktop.
Press Save Cryptfile button and the file will be saved in created folder.
A message will confirm that the crypted file has been created.
26
From the package, copy the file runasspc.exe in the same folder
(Desktop->SpectraProRunAs)
Cut the folder created (SpectraProRunAs) and paste it in your computer
(Ex. C:\Program FIles\SpectraPro).
Change the User to any normal user needed to run SpectraPro
(Ex.John).
Open the folder C:\Program FIles \SpectraPro\SpectraProRunAs, point on
runasspc.exe and give a right-click. Select the following item:
This will create a shortcut of "John" on the Desktop.
Rename the shortcut as SpectraPro.

You may change the shortcut icon with the SpectraPro icon.
For example, you can browser to SpectraPro.exe and choose an icon
associated with it.
27
Always, when you double-click on this shortcut the SpectraPro will start,
having Admin rights.
28
The above picture is for free software, so if you don’t have the license yet,
press Start.
Running the SpectraPro in this way will assure a complete functionality.
Instead of RunasSpc Application you may use RunasRob Application
with more settings facility.
For example, you can run SpectraPro with administrator rights as
limited user from a specified path (C:\Program Files\SpectraPro)
configured in RunasRob.
29
Addendum C
SpectraPro - VER.4.17.26 Implementation Notes
Compatibility mode
SpectraPro is a 32 bits application developed under Windows XP SP3.
SpectraPro was tested and works properly under the followings
Operating Systems:
 Windows 8 (x32 and x64)
 Windows 7 (x32 and x64) all versions
 Windows Server 2008 R2 (Ver.6.1)
 Windows Server 2008 (Ver. 6.0)
 Windows Vista (Ver.6.0)"
 Windows Server 2003 R2 (Ver.5.2)
 Windows Server 2003 (Ver.5.2)"
 Windows XP 64-Bit Edition (Ver.5.2)
 Windows XP (Ver.5.1)
SpectraPro must be installed under an Administrator user account, but
can run under any standard user account.
SpectraPro needs more privilege than a standard user account, so the
Operating System must be configured to give to the application more
administrative rights.
