Installation
SiteChart software is installed on a PC that you can connect to Explorer directly
via the serial port of a PC using the Communication Cable Kit (MX380304).
PC Requirements
The PC must meet the following hardware and software requirements to run the
SiteChart software:
Pentium based personal computer
8 MB of RAM for Windows 95, 16 megabytes (MB) of RAM, minimum, for
Windows NT (32 MB is recommended for Windows NT)
4 Megabytes of free hard disk space
Color, 600 x 800 display, adapter card and monitor supported by Windows
A Windows compatible printer is required in order to obtain printed reports
A mouse or another pointing device supported by Windows
A CD drive.
Connecting a Remote Computer
For added flexibility you can control Explorer through a remote computer. In this
configuration you will connect the computer at your location to a modem. You dial
out to a second modem connected to
Explorer. This option will be useful if you need
to call into Explorer from home or from a separate location to view results. Also, if
an alarm or fault condition is encountered SiteChart can dial out and send an alarm
or fault message.
To do this, in addition to the system described above you will also need an
external modem for
Explorer and a modem for the remote computer, both 9600
baud or faster.
