Installing CAMEO Programs
You will be installing at least five different computer programs
to operate the CAMEO Suite. Begin by creating a new folder on
your computer named “CAMEO Installer Programs” to store the
installer programs. If the software fails, you will be able to reinstall
from the CAMEO Installer Programs folder.

You will need to install five programs to operate the CAMEO
Suite are:
CAMEO Chemicals, CAMEOfm, ALOHA, MARPLOT:

System Requirements
Information concerning the system requirements for each of the
four programs is found in each of the associated Help menus.
1. Open CAMEOfm.
2. Select the Help menu.
3. Select the “Managing Your CAMEO System” link.
4. Select “Overview.”
Drive Space
Typical available c: drive space necessary for the program
folders is:
ALOHA: 3.5 MB (megabytes)
CAMEO Chemicals: 93.0 MB
CAMEOfm: 34.0 MB
MARPLOT: 60.0 MB
QuickTime: 80.0 MB
The CAMEO Suite also requires installation of separate data
folders for CAMEOfm and MARPLOT. The folder size for these is
completely dependent on the amount of data used by the
individual user. For example, a relatively complex CAMEO
system might exhibit the following folder sizes:
CAMEO Data: 100 MB
MARPLOT Maps: 3.5 GB (gigabytes)
User Rights
For the CAMEO Suite to operate properly, each user must have a
minimum of “Full Control” rights for each of the program
folders. It is not necessary for each user to have administrative
rights, or full control of the entire c: drive. It is necessary for the
user to have Administrative Rights to install the programs.
