In this section, i will explain how to install Automatic School Bell v3. Before proceeding this section, please read all the requirements in the install requirement page for successful installation.

Step 1: Run the setup

Once you click the setup, it will prompt you access control or admin privilege, you must hit "Yes" to proceed and it will be redirected to installaction overview. Hit "Next" button to continue.

Step 3: Specify database server

This is the most important step. By default, it will automatically specify "(local)\SQLExpress" as database server. You must change it based on your database server by selecting list of available server(s). For the "Connect using:" selection, you must set "Windows authentication credentials of current user" because Windows service will need this login to fetch data from database. For the "Name of database catalog:" leave it blank because setup will create it for you. Setup will automatically set the NT Authority\SYSTEM to have sysadmin role by executing script in the background, so you don't need to do further configuration either in configuration files or the database itself :). After finish this section, hit "Next" button.
