Differences between the Client and Server Programs
The Client program differs from the Server program in a number of ways:
•
MCN Network Connection
The Server connects to the MCN Network directly (or through a HIB-IP) unit.
The Client connects to the MCN network through the Server.
•
Logging
The Error Logging function (to the screen, printer, disk, and email) is a Server function only.
•
Sounds
The Sounds (on specific status conditions) are supported only on the Server.
•
Client-Server Connections
The Server can have multiple Clients connected to it at a time (up to the limit of the license).
The Client can connect to only one Server at a time.
•
Configuration
The system configuration database is stored on the Server (and edited with MCNConfig).
The Client will retrieve the appropriate configuration data from the Server when it logs in.
