The presence of this Readme file indicates that Aspen OLI V8.8 has been
partially installed. This document provides background information on the
licensing structure, the installation process and new features in Aspen OLI
V8.8.
Licensing Structure

1 Aspen OLI Interface provided by AspenTech. The interface is included
with Aspen Plus and Aspen Properties and is provided without additional
license.
2 OLI Engine 9.1 in Aspen Plus V8.8 licensed by OLI Systems.
New customers of Aspen OLI V8.8 will need to sign a contract with OLI
Systems. OLI Systems will provide the necessary software license manager,

Software Installation
Installation of Aspen OLI requires these steps:
1 Contact OLI Systems to obtain the OLI Hardlock security key, serial
number, and password for installing the OLI Engine in Aspen Plus as part
of the continued licensing of Aspen OLI.
2 Install the Aspen OLI Interface, which is part of the Process Modeling
(Aspen Plus) Installation. When this installation is complete, you will have
installed all of the components required within the Aspen framework to
support the OLI Engine.
3 Download the OLI Engine 9.1 in Aspen Plus V8.8 from the OLI support
website (http://support.olisystems.com) and install it. This is a self-
extracting script that installs the components supplied by OLI in a
directory of your choosing (or the default location C:\Program Files\OLI
Systems\OLI Engine 9.1\Aspen Plus V8.8). During the installation, you
will be asked to supply the serial number obtained in step 1.
Note: This file is no longer delivered by AspenTech, as it was in previous
releases, and must be obtained directly from the OLI web site. This
ensures that you get the most up-to-date version of the OLI software.
4 Finally, plug in the OLI Hardlock key to an available USB port on your
system. It is recommended that you use the Security Settings and
Test program accessible from the Start | Programs | OLI Systems |
OLI Engine in Aspen Plus V8.8 | Tools menu to confirm that the OLI
License is operating correctly.
