2.2 Installing TOPSPIN
The main decision you have to make during installation is where do you want to
install the new T
OPSPIN version. If you a have previous NMR SUITE or TOPSPIN
installation on this PC available, you can either:
• install the new version in parallel to the previous one
(e.g. old version in /opt/topspin2.0, new in /opt/topspin2.1)
or
• install the new version in the same directory as the previous one
(e.g. old version in /opt/topspin, new in /opt/topspin)
The installation in parallel has the advantage, that the previous version remains
unchanged. After a parallel installation you can start working with the new version
and if you want to go back to the previous version for whatever reasons you can
just start and reuse it.
The installation of T
OPSPIN 2.1 offers an automatic import of your individual con-
figuration of a previous version, so that there is no advantage to install the new
version in the same directory as the old one.
