Technical Requirements
Overview
This document outlines hardware recommendations for Bentley Navigator CONNECT Edition and Navigator Mobile. It includes installation requirements and minimum hardware requirements.
Installation Requirements
CD drive or access to the Internet required for product installation. The minimum system configuration for installation:
| Operating System | Windows 10 (64-bit) Windows 8.1 (64-bit) Windows 7 (64-bit)
Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) |
| Software Prerequisites | If you do not have Microsoft .NET Framework version 4.5 installed, install it before installing Bentley Navigator. The Microsoft download is available from this location. |
Minimum Profile
The minimum recommended workstation profile for running Navigator CONNECT Edition is:
| Processor | Intel® or AMD® 64 bit processor 1.0 GHz or greater. |
| Memory | 1 GB minimum, 2 GB recommended. More memory almost always improves performance, particularly when working with larger models. |
| Hard Disk | 500 MB free disk space (which includes the 150 MB install footprint for a complete installation). |
| Video | Graphics card supported by DirectX 9.0c. See the graphics card manufacturer for latest information on DirectX drivers. 256 MB of dedicated video RAM or higher is recommended. If insufficient video RAM or no graphics card supported by DirectX can be found, Navigator attempts to use software emulation. For optimal performance, graphics display color depth should be set to 24-bit or higher. When using a color depth setting of 16-bit, some inconsistencies will be noted. |
| Screen Resolution | 1024 x 768 or higher. |
