    The document provides instructions on how to download and install MODTAG and MODCOMP software.

    The steps are to remove any previous versions, login to the FTP site anonymously, download the files to a temporary folder, install MODTAG.MSI then extract the MODTAG Updates.ZIP folder.

    MODTAG and MODCOMP can run on Windows XP or earlier using XP mode. They will not run on Windows 8 or higher.

    Directions to download and install MODTAG software:

    1) If you already have an earlier version of MODTAG installed on your computer, it would
    be prudent to remove it before running the new MSI install module. Use Add/Remove
    Programs to remove it. Any data files that you may have, or calculation results, will
    NOT be removed.
    2) Using Windows Explorer or your favorite FTP program enter ftp://www.clrp.cornell.edu.
    You will see a screen such as the one below (highlight added).

    3) Follow the highlighted directions to click on Page, then click on Open FTP Site in
    Windows Explorer.
    4) Click on File, then click on Login As

    5) In the window check the box Log on anonymously. The user name and address will fill
    in automatically.

    6) Open the MODTAG_Download directory


    7) Read the PDF files
    8) If you are using Windows XP or earlier:
    Download the contents of the Programs subdirectory to a temporary folder on your
    computer, or to your desktop. Open the C: partition on your computer.

    If you are using Windows 7:


    Download the contents of the Programs subdirectory to a temporary folder on a flash
    drive. You will need to install the programs on XP Mode for them to run.
    You may need to install the XP Mode software from Microsoft. To do so go to:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/install-and-use-windows-xp-mode-inwindows-7 Follow the directions provided at the Microsoft website. (If you already
    have XP Mode installed, no need to reinstall it.)
    Open the C: partition under XP Mode. Put the flash drive in a USB port.
    If you are using Windows 8 or higher:
    Neither MODTAG nor MODCOMP will run on these computers. They do not provide
    XP mode. We are writing an upgrade to the programs to overcome this problem.
    Anticipated availability is September 2015.
    9) FIRST install the MODTAG.MSI install module. Accept the default location for the files
    (i.e., C:\MODTAG).
    10) SECOND, move the MODTAG Updates.ZIP folder to the C:\ root directory. Extract the
    contents to update certain files. If you are using WinZip the ZIP folder contains the
    required paths, so the files will be installed correctly in the proper folders. Otherwise you
    will need to manually insert the updated files.
    Verify that the date on the C:\MODTAG\MODCOMP6\Modcomp6.exe file is
    11/10/2012. If it is, then the file extraction was successful. (Delete the ZIP folder in
    the C:\ directory after you have successfully extracted the files.)
    11) Note that the MODTAG Users Guide is located in the C:\MODTAG subdirectory. The
    file name is ModTagManual.PDF. The MODCOMP Users Guide is in
    C:\MODTAG\MODCOMP6, named Instructional Guide for Back-Calculation and the
    Use of MODCOMP6.PDF.
    12) If you have a Dynatest FWD MODTAG can read native (F20 and F25) and DDX
    formatted data files. If you have a JILS, KUAB or Carl Bro FWD, you will need to
    convert the native file to DDX format. Use PDDXconvert.exe for this purpose. Install
    the PDDXconvert folder in the MODTAG subdirectory. When you run the program a
    help screen is available.
