Yes Blum-Novatest normally does the installation and support of the software package.
The machine side PLC will need to be modified, so maybe find out if Blum where you are located can do this or if they make you do it.
I normally just do our PLC modifications to accept and have Blum do their installation and training on the system.
If you do it install an ethernet switch, (non-managed) for the embedded ethernet, bacause they use it, but if you want access to it for other things to a switch will give you more ports.
