Wide Area Networking Setup

NOTE:  This software CD is designed to install on remote PC’s, Please do not install the networking CD over the existing UpBoard/CRM System.

Each TRAX UpBoard is it’s own database and should be considered a separate server of the system.  Each networked PC is considered a Client of the TRAX system and is pointed to the appropriate TRAX UpBoard.  This applies even if you have other software programs running that have a central database residing on a corporate server.  The TRAX system ignores the existing server network and works independently.

The following directions outline the setup of the wide area networking as it relates to TRAXsales.

Insure TRAXsales CRM <UpBoard – Traffic TRAX> is installed and operating.

This Networking software operates over an existing wide area network.

TRAXsales software works through Adaptive Server Anywhere, which is a client - server based program.

The Networking software utilizes a file name search engine to locate the database at the UpBoard – TT workstation.

The two most common situations are:

1.      Wide area networking with one UpBoard – TT database. 

2.      Wide area networking with multiple UpBoard – TT databases.

Situation 1 does not require the use of the Networking Setup feature.

Situation 2 will require setup.  Multiple databases require the renaming of the database file name in the registry.  The following instructions will describe how to make this change.
