On the STATISTICS tab select Start local R to ensure local execution and verify that the path to the local R installation is correct. Select Install to Pmod folder to install the base required packages on PMOD restart.
Restart PMOD and wait for the R icon on the main ToolBox to become active.
Return to the Configuration facility from the main ToolBox and change the R package installation selection to Don't install:
On the STATISTICS tab select Start local R to ensure local execution and verify that the path to the local R installation is correct. Select Don’t install for the R packages as illustrated above.
Restart PMOD and wait for the R icon on the main ToolBox to become active.
