Installation
You can obtain the Element Manager
through SiteWizard CD-ROM or you can download it via https://www.online.nokia.com/SWD/: Software Delivery > Operations Support Systems
> Element Management Products > SiteWizard.
To install the Element Manager, follow
the instructions of the SiteWizard installation program.
The installation program should start
automatically when the CD-ROM is inserted in the CD-ROM drive. If it does not
start, run setup.exe from the CD-ROM manually.
If you received the Element Manager installation package as a compressed file (.zip), extract
the zip file contents into some temporary directory in your hard disk. Then run
setup.exe from the directory. After the installation is completed, you can
delete the temporary directory and its contents.
The Element Manager files
are installed into the directory you selected during the installation (referred
to as "Installation Directory").
The Element Manager startup
(shortcut) icon is added into the "Nokia Siemens Networks" folder.
The Element Manager executable
"FXCSTM1Man.exe" is located in the Installation Directory.
To use connection services of the Element
manager, GCS communication service (as per the compatibility chart above) must
be installed.

Uninstallation
To uninstall the Element Manager, follow
the normal Windows application uninstallation procedure (from the Control Panel
select Add/Remove Programs).
For more details, see the online Help
