There are a number of ways that the ROES Client application can be launched: From a link on our web page, from the Java Web Start application or from a Shortcut on the desktop or elsewhere in your system.

Launching For the First Time

The first time you launch the application it will happen by clicking on a link on our web site. When you click the link the ROES system will check to see if you have a proper version of Java installed on your machine.

Java Installation

If you do not have a proper version of Java, it will first download and run a Java Installer.

Click on Yes to install Java on your machine. When you click yes the system will then proceed to download the Java installer. This is a fairly large download and only happens the first time you run the application (unless you subsequently delete Java from your machine).

Continue through all of the subsequent Java installation messages and Security notifications.

You will be asked if you would like to have the ROES program integreated into your desktop environment. Answer Yes and a shortcut to the ROES program will be created on your desktop.

From this point on, if you created a shortcut, you can simply double click on a shortcut to launch the application.
