The /S is the silent install option of the NSIS installer used by the 
Win32 version of smartmontools.
http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Docs/Chapter3.html#3.2

The installer does not install smartd as a service.

The following should work to do a silent install including smartd 
service. Smartd logs to smartd.log in 10min intervals. Service start is 
set to automatic:

  \PATH_TO_INSTALLER\smartmontools-VERSION.win32-setup /S

  %ProgramFiles%\smartmontools\bin\smartd install -i 600 -l local0

  sc config smartd start= auto

  sc start smartd

The command 'sc qc smartd' and 'sc query smartd' can be used to check 
service configuration and status.

Cheers,
Christian
