3.3.5.1 Reader IP Address
This field sets the Reader’s IP Address. The Reader must use a fixed IP address, which
should be entered into this field. Changing the Reader’s IP address is discussed later in
this document.
3.3.5.2 Database Location
This field specifies the location for the Interbase database file. This location is
determined during the initial setup of the database. To specify a database on the local
machine, just type in the location as specified in the Interbase database definition. To
specify a remote database, enter <computer name>:<database location>, where
computer name is the name windows networking uses, and the location is the path of the
file, excluding the drive specifier (e.g. ‘PICS_ENROLL:\PICS\Database\PICS’).
3.3.5.3 Database Username and Password
The user name and password fields must be filled in for the PICS Reader Service to
operate stand alone. A valid user log in is required. If these fields are not filled in, or
they are not valid, the operator will have to log in to the database before the service will
be granted access to it. When these fields are edited, the operator needs to press the Set
User/Password button to have the information stored.
