Administrative configuration and setup The Configuration Organizer is the center of all Scan Station
administration. With the Configuration Organizer you can create
administrative configuration files and user configuration files. Setting up
the Scan Station requires the creation of an administrative configuration
file. The Configuration Organizer must first be installed on a separate
computer to properly setup and configure the Scan Station.
Administrative
configuration files Once installed, the Configuration Organizer is used to create an
administrative configuration file, which is written to a USB flash drive
(the Scan Station 100 comes with three USB flash drives). To create an
administrative configuration file, check Administrator on the File menu
of the Configuration Organizer. The administrative configuration file is
named KSS100.XML and is written to the flash drive (or any other
location) as an encrypted file. Because this file is encrypted, it can only
be decoded and read by the Kodak Scan Station 100 or the
Configuration Organizer. This file can also be password protected, both
on the USB flash drive and when it is written to the Scan Station. Once
the file is written to the USB flash drive, the configuration file can be
transported and installed on the Scan Station (see the following
diagram).
The Scan Station automatically detects the presence of a USB flash
drive and will search the drive for a KSS100.XML file. If the file is valid,
the contents are examined for further actions. If the contents of the
configuration file do not match the exact contents of the configuration
currently stored on the Scan Station, the administrator will be prompted
to update the Scan Station with the contents of the configuration file on
the flash drive. The administrator may or may not choose to update the
Scan Station at this time.
If the OK button is selected, the administrator will be prompted, through
a sequence of screens, to allow the configuration of the Scan Station.
