Starting the “Confsys”program for the first time

Setting the correct starting options

When you start the program for the first time, the “Waiting for master...” dialog box appears and you have to decide whether the PC is to be configured as a master PC, slave PC or video PC.

To do so, proceed as follows:

￿Make sure that all PCs on which you have installed the software are turned on and that the dongle is inserted into a free USB port of the master PC.

￿Make sure that “Full Control” is enabled for the installation folder (e.g.

C:\Programs\SDC8200) of the master PC

￿In the “Waiting for master...” dialog box, click the “Options” button. The “Options” window opens.

￿On the “Confsys” tab, configure the PC as a master PC, slave PC or video PC as required (see “Configuring the PC in a network” on page 44). On the master PC and on all other PCs in the network, enter the correct IP addresses of all PCs involved in the control of your conference and interpretation system.

￿If you only use one PC to control the conference and interpretation system, configure this one as the master PC. In this case, you do not require any IP addresses.

￿On the “CU” tab, set the correct COM port (see “Configuring the COM port” on page 49).

￿In the “Options” window, click the ”Save and Exit” button. The “Options” window closes.

￿In the “Waiting for master...” dialog box, click the close “Close” button. The dialog box closes.

￿Restart the program. If you want to configure additional slave or video PCs, proceed in the same way.

If the “Waiting for master...” dialog box appears when the program is started for the second time (or later), this means that no connection can be established with the master PC because:

ythe master PC is not turned on or

ythe “Confsys” program is not running on the master PC or

y“Full Control” is not enabled for the installation folder (e.g.

C:\Programs\SDC8200) of the master PC or

ythe wrong IP address for the master PC was specified on the video or slave PC or

ythe wrong IP address for the video or slave PC was specified on the master PC.
