How to install Percept

These steps are the same for Windows and Linux

  1. Extract the downloaded archive and navigate to the folder:

    1. for Percept licensed version: cd Downloads/blickfeld-percept-v1.x.x_licensed/blickfeld-percept-v1.x.x_licensed

    2. for Percept trial version: cd Downloads/blickfeld-percept-v1.x.x_trial/blickfeld-percept-v1.x.x_trial

  2. Load the Percept image into the local Docker registry by executing the following command on the command line:

    1. docker load -i percept-v1.x.x.tar.gz

  3. To make sure, that the image was loaded correctly, check the Docker image registry contents (the output should be similar to the one shown in the image List of Docker Images below, the "TAG" depends on the Percept version used):

    1. docker images

Loading the Percept image into the docker registry might take some time

Additional steps required on Ubuntu

On Ubuntu some additional configuration has to be done to complete the setup. For your convenience we included a configure.sh script in the zip folder of Percept (needs root permission). Please follow the steps to configure Percept:

  1. sudo ./configure.sh --user=your_user_name --volumes (replace your_user_name with your user name)
