MONITOR AFx™ Director V4.1 User's Guide

500-9041 v4.1

Allowable Client List

In a client/server system, client workstations

are given access to the central database by

identifying them to the server. (After installing

the MONITOR AFx Director software at the

server and client workstations.)

Note:

This requires obtaining a "Cyclic-ID" code from

the MONITOR AFx Director software running on each

client PC (main program, and the communications

module).

Director Server and Workstations:

The Director

server PC is not to be confused with your network

server PC, or any network-related components,

software, or drivers. Director Server: The (networked)

PC that contains the MONITOR AFx Director database,

and the database-server component of the Director

software;

Exception:

With the "Open Database" feature, the

Director-server PC contains the "... Director-Server.exe"

software module, and the Director database is stored

on the MS SQL server PC;

Obtaining the "Cyclic ID" Codes from

Each Client PC

A security code must be obtained from each

client PC that is to be given access to the

MONITOR AFx Director database.

(This is required for the MONITOR AFx Director

software, as well as the Communications software, as

applicable.)

After installing the software at each client

workstation, start the software, open

Help

About...

and jot down the "Cyclic-ID" code,

as this will be needed to 'tell' the server to

allow database access for each of these

workstations. (To start the software, open

the

Start

menu, select

MONITOR AFx

Director V4

, followed by

Programs

, and

MONITOR AFx Director

Tip:

If you prefer, you can cut-and-paste the ID codes

into "Notepad" or "MS Word", and use a floppy-disk to

transport the file to the server PC (for registration).

Similarly, you'll need to record the "Cyclic-

ID" code from the Communications software

on each PC to be associated with an alarm

panel connection (in addition to the

MONITOR AFx Director ID/code, as

applicable). To start the Communications

software, open the

Start

menu, select

MONITOR AFx Director V4

, followed by

Programs

, and

MONITOR AFx Director-

Communication

If prompted for the Server Name: Enter or select the

name (or IP address) associated with the Director-

server PC, and click

information).

If a Device Configuration Screen Appears: If the

"Direct-Cable-Connection" or modem that you'll be

using has already been set up on the PC, you can

select it now (press

if you'd like more information).

click

from the pop-up

numbers can be used for the specific software

application/PC combination.
