Installing a GVG Acappella Router Server
To enable iTX to operate a GVG Acappella router, you install the GVG Acappella Router
component (from the Routers module). The GVG Acappella Router Server in this component
can control one GVG Acappella router. We recommend you install the component on the
Database Server machine.
Install the GVG Acappella Router Server
1. Double-click Setup.exe in the installation folder, iTX Suite, to start the installer.
The installer displays the iTX Installer dialog.
2. Click Select Software to open the Select Software to Install dialog.
3. Expand the Routing category and then the Routers sub-category.
Select the GVG Acappella Router component; select the Server Base if you are installing the
component on a machine that does not already have a Server Controller installed. Ensure
the other components in the Routers module are not selected.
Click OK to close the Select Software to Install dialog.
4. The iTX Installer dialog shows the components that you selected.
5. Click Continue.
The installer performs the installation.
6. Click Finish to close the iTX Installer dialog.
Running the Acappella Router Server
The Server Controller on the same machine automatically starts the GVG Acappella Router
Server. When the router-control service starts for the first time, it registers the details of the
router in the System Database.
