Installation Steps
Pre-requisites
Download installer
Download Analyst installer file ("Analyst_Installer.exe") from Solargis Admin page: Solargis Home
Internet access
Access to https://apps.solargis.com/home/analyst and api.solargis.com is needed during the installation and runtime of the Analyst application.
User permissions
Permissions to execute the installed software on the user computer and to access to Windows user home directory (especially the Start menu folder) are required for running Solargis Analyst.
Firewall settings
Before the first Analyst run, you need to allow Analyst to access the internet if prompted. It is required for a) license validation - mandatory, b) upgrades, c) getting (purchased) the data directly from Solargis web.
CPU usage
During the installation process, it may happen that the system seems to be non-responding (on some machines a message "Installer is not responding" can appear as well for some time). However, the Analyst Installer process very likely continues running despite the non-responding warning message.
Installer not responding
In case the installation process seems to have stopped, we suggest keeping waiting for the process to finish and ensure that:
your laptop battery is charged and not in energy-saving mode
PC is not overloaded by other programs
PC has enough available disk space
Check whether the performance of your computer is sufficient
