Please seek help from seasoned computer professionals if you run into trouble when networking WinRascol Principle of Operation Networking WinRascol is accomplished with drop box directories One or more clients generate images in the form of BLL files and drop them into drop box directories A server periodically scans the drop box directories and images all files dropped into it The drop box directory can be local to the server but can also reside on the network Note that all film recorder settings chosen in the BLL generator printer driver on the client machine are part of the BLL The server extracts these settings so no film recorder options need to be set on the server Of course settings like the film type must be appropriate for the target film recorder Principle of Operation 105 Creating a WinRascol Network Install WinRascol on the server first The server can be a machine running Windows NT 2000 XP or Windows 9x ME e Install the film recorder See Chapter 3 Hardware Installation on page 25 for details e Install WinRascol 5 See Running setup on page or details e Install a queue See Adding a queue on page B8 for details e Chose a drop box directory and point WinRascol to it See Changing the Drop Box Path on page Bolfor details Don t forget to make sure that a BLL subdirectory in the drop box directory exists or the WinRascol server will not
