Networking

Networked data paths with only work with ‘Mapped Drives’. For example ‘T:\EC6\Data’.

If using a networked path for Data the following files must remain in EC6\data directory:

  • EasySys.mdb
  • MasterTempResults.mdb
  • TempResults.mdb
  • Uncert.mdb
  • ConvTables.mdb
  • UserConvTables.mdb
  • Strings.mdb

All other databases can be moved to the desired directory. For normal usage (Default Settings) the paths are set as follows:

  • Path to Data: C:\EC6\Data
  • Path to Reports: C:\EC6\Reports
  • Path to Pics: C:\EC6\Pics

If using different calibration instruments on another workstation it is advisable to keep individual sets of procedures. Selecting ‘Procedures are local for each workstation’ will achieve this.

If required a temporary copy of procedures can be created at the start of a calibration run. This will ensure that if procedure editing is in progress while a calibration run is being performed it will not affect the calibration run. This option also improves performance on slow networks.
