== Binaries: Installation steps == 1. Visit the [[http://neuroimage.usc.edu/brainstorm3_register/download.php|Download]] section, create an account, and follow the indications. 1. Download the two binaries bst_bin...zip archive for your operating system. * One file is the Matlab Component Runtime (MCR) * The other file is the compiled application itself. * If your operating system is not listed: post a message on the [[http://neuroimage.usc.edu/forums/|Forum]], we will do our best to make it available. 1. Unzip the bst_bin..._MCR.zip file, and execute the MCRInstaller * This will install the Matlab Runtime Component (MCR) on your computer. * Read more about the MCR: [[http://www.mathworks.com/access/helpdesk/help/toolbox/compiler/f12-999353.html|Matlab website]] 1. Unzip the bst_bin...zip file somewhere you usually put your program files. For example: * __Windows__: C:\Program Files\brainstorm3 * __Linux__: /home/username/brainstorm3 1. Create an empty folder "'''brainstorm_db'''" to store your Brainstorm database. For example: * __Windows__: C:\Program Files\brainstorm_db * __Linux__: /home/username/brainstorm_db 1.

- Download the latest brainstorm_....zip archive
Unzip it somewhere you usually put your program files. For example:
Windows: Program Files\brainstorm3
Linux: /usr/local/brainstorm3 (or $HOME/brainstorm3 if you are not admin)
MacOS: Applications/brainstorm3
Create an empty folder "brainstorm_db" to store your Brainstorm database. For example:
Windows: My documents\brainstorm_db
Linux: /home/username/brainstorm_db
MacOS: Documents/brainstorm_db
Start the application
With Matlab
- Start Matlab
Do NOT add brainstorm3 folder to your path
- Go to the brainstorm3 folder
- Type "brainstorm" in the command window
Visit the Tutorials section to learn what to do next.
Without Matlab
Go to the Download section again
Download the Matlab Compiler Runtime (MCR) for your operating system.
- Install it:
Windows: Double-click on the .exe and follow the instructions
Linux: From a terminal, unzip .zip, then run ./install
MacOS: Unzip, install
- Run the program in brainstorm3/bin/R2011b/
Windows: Double-click on brainstorm3.jar (no console) or brainstorm3.bat (console)
Linux: From a terminal, run ./brainstorm.command
MacOS: Double-click on brainstorm.command
- Select the folder in which you installed the MCR library (Linux and MacOS only)
Visit the Tutorials section to learn what to do next.
Updates
Brainstorm is improving every day. It is recommended that you update the software regularly.
- Automatic updates (Matlab only):
- When you start Brainstorm, it checks online if your version is older than a month.
To enable / disable those automatic updates, edit the software preferences (File > Set preferences...)
- Manual updates (Matlab only):
Menu Help > Update Brainstorm, in the main application window.
- If it doesn't work: check that you have the rights to write in the brainstorm3 folder.
- Stand-alone version (or in case those simple methods do not work)
- Delete the old brainstorm3 folder (don't worry, it's not going to remove your database)
- Follow the installation instructions again (previous section)
