It is recommended that you test the mail server with the “Test Mail Server” function in the Mail
Servers window. After clicking the “Test Mail Server” button, you will know that the test was
successful if “email sent successfully” is displayed on the screen. If an error message appears,
troubleshooting may be required. More information can be found on page 41.
SDStatus Workstation
This section provides a Quick Start for SDStatus Workstation. Like the SDStatus View Quick
Start section, this Quick Start is intended to provide basic information on enabling and
configuring SDStatus Workstation. Note that use of SDStatus Workstation is optional. SDStatus
View can be used by itself to monitor servers and instruments and generate alarm notifications.
As described in other parts of this manual, SDStatus Workstation will extend many of the
monitoring capabilities of SDStatus View to additional computers.
To enable SDStatus Workstation functionality, some setup is required in SDStatus View.
Specifically, four setup procedures must be completed in SDStatus View:
• Enabling the Workstation Server
• Setting up Workstation profiles
• Setting up user access levels
• Setting up alarm sounds (if desired)
These procedures are covered in this Quick Start.
Enabling the Workstation Server (in SDStatus View)
Workstation Server is required in order for SDStatus Workstation to communicate with
SDStatus Service. This function is handled in the Workstation Server window.
