1. Download and install the Tamale Software Research Client.

2. Download and install the Tamale Outlook Plug-in. (See below)

• A one step, self-extracting installer: TamaleRMSClient.exe.
• Individual installers (install in this order):
  1. .NET Framework 4.7 Extended
  2. Visual Studio Tools for Office for Windows
  3. TamaleRMSClient.msi

1. For Outlook 2007, Outlook 2010, and Outlook 2013: Self-extracting executable: Ol2007Host.exe or as a zip file: Ol2007Host.zip

1. Manually configure the Tamale client with the Tamale server IP address. This must be done for each desktop client and may need to be repeated each time the desktop client code is updated. If you plan to install the client on the same machine from which you requested this page you may use the address: 10.33.149.116*
   
2. Register the Tamale server to the DNS. When an IP address is not specified, the Tamale client will scan for preset server names in a specific order. Register the Tamale server to the DNS using one of the names below. The names are listed in the order scanned.
   - tamaleresearch, tamaleserver, tamalehome, tamale, and tamalelocal
3. Install the Tamale server on the same subnet as the client. When an IP address is not specified and the scan for preset server names returns nothing, the Tamale client will scan the local network for the first Tamale server it finds. Installing the Tamale server on the same subnet as the desktop clients will ensure the network scan results in the proper connection between client and server.

Tamale comes with several plug-ins that integrate with commonly used applications such as Adobe® Acrobat® and Microsoft® Word, Excel, Internet Explorer, and Windows® itself.  To maximize productivity, please follow these configuration instructions to ensure that each application opens documents of its type in a separate window, instead of embedded within Internet Explorer.  These instructions, along with accompanying screenshots, are all in the help file (F1 from within Tamale, or go to the HELP menu), in the "Get Started" section.

Users who have limited-user status on their machine must request their system administrator to perform the following tasks.

• Adobe Acrobat

  Note: The administrator should run the Acrobat program by right-clicking on the shortcut, choosing "Run As...", and entering the administrator's username and password in the bottom portion of the window.  Once the four checkboxes are unselected and the changes are saved, limited users will often see the checkboxes selected and grayed out when they run Acrobat.  Regardless of what limited users see, as long as their administrator unselected the checkboxes, then the changes were correctly made.
   

  1. From the main menu, go to EDIT --> PREFERENCES.
  2. In Acrobat 6.0, click on INTERNET in the left bar of the dialog.  In Acrobat 5.0, click on OPTIONS.
  3. Uncheck the top four checkboxes ("Display PDF in Browser", "Check Browser Settings ...", "Allow Fast Web View", and "Allow Background Downloading").  Acrobat 6.0 only has these four boxes, while Acrobat 5.0 has other options that should not be changed for Tamale.
  4. Press OK to exit the Preferences dialog.
