Installing PLS_Toolbox

PLS_Toolbox is delivered as a Windows Installer (.exe for Windows only) or as a compressed ZIP file (all platforms). Installation is a two-part process of copying and decompressing files into a local folder and then adding those files to your MATLAB path. You will need your License Code (obtained at the time of purchase).

System Requirements

  • MATLAB 6.5 or greater.
  • 20 MB of disk space.

Using the PLS_Toolbox Windows Installer

It is recommended that Windows users use the PLS_Toolbox Windows Installer. Copy the .exe file to your Desktop (or other suitable local location). Then double click the icon and follow the instructions. Be sure to verify the location of the installation folder; by default it will be the "toolbox" folder of your current MATLAB installation. When the Installer has completed, it will prompt you to start MATLAB and run an install script. If MATLAB doesn't start see Step 2 below.

Manually Installing PLS_Toolbox from ZIP File

  1. File Extraction
    Decompress the PLS_Toolbox ZIP file and move it to the MATLAB "toolbox" folder (e.g. C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2006a\toolbox).
    Note: For those who already have a version of PLS_Toolbox installed, be sure the folders do not have the same name (by default they should not). Rename your existing copy of PLS_Toolbox if necessary.
  2. Run evriinstall
    For MATLAB to find PLS_Toolbox, the directories that contain the toolbox files must be added to the MATLAB search path (except the @DATASET folder).
    Note: If you are familiar with installing toolboxes purchased from The MathWorks, this process is slightly different. TMW installers typically are able to set the path automatically.)
    Start MATLAB and follow these steps:
    • Start MATLAB and use the Current Directory toolbar to navigate to the PLS_Toolbox directory created in Step One.
    • Once PLS_Toolbox is the current directory type evriinstall at the command line (in the COMMAND WINDOW):
>> evriinstall
