1. Insert the ICA-AtoM Demo CD into your computer. Re-start the computer. The Demo CD is designed to boot all the required operating and server software from CD to launch the ICA-AtoM application. A Firefox web browser will open to the ICA-AtoM demo Home page.
2. If the Demo CD does not start up automatically, re-start your computer again and hold down the F12 key while it re-loads ("c" key if you are using a Mac). Choose the 'boot from CD' option.
3. The Demo CD ships with sample data which you can delete, modify or add to as you see fit. Please note the Demo CD only runs in memory. None of the changes you make will be saved the next time you run the CD. Visit the ica-atom.org website to download and install a fully operational version of the software.
4. ICA-AtoM always opens in the default language for your application (for demo purposes this has been set to English). To switch languages, click one of the options in the language menu. The current language is always underlined.
5. Please note that not all of the user interface translations are complete in the 1.0 beta version and that the sample data is in English only. To add your own translations, see section 5, Translate.
6. On opening, ICA-AtoM provides view-only access, so that any user can immediately begin searching or browsing the contents of the application, using the search / browse box.
