Getting started: install PEP
If you are new to PEP, this page gives you the download you need. Just pick your project and your operating system in the table below.
Make sure you install the right environment
Most PEP projects are available in more than one environment. Only the environment listed on this page holds your project's real data. Any other environments (such as testing and acceptance) are used in the process of testing new PEP release versions. If you install one of those by mistake, you may still be able to log in, but you will not see your study's data.
Unless you specifically require the testing or acceptance environment, use the downloads on this page.

Find the row for your project, then click the download link in the column for your operating system.
