16 Chapter 2 Installation
NETWORK The production computer and all display computers must be interconnected
using a TCP/IP compatible Ethernet network, which comes standard on most
computers. Wireless networks are generally not recommended.
Stand-alone System Connect all computers to a hub or switch.
For stand-alone operation of a WATCHOUT system, this is usually all you need
to do in terms of hardware hook-up.
LICENSE KEYS Each computer in the system requires a WATCHOUT license key, including the
production computer. Plug the key into any free USB (Universal Serial Bus) port
on the computer.
◆ NOTE: You can run the production software off-line without a license key
connected. A key is needed when you go on-line to communicate with the
display computers.
