How do I install DTP?

[Belinda Frick]

Available:


On the TOPAZ CD -> DTP you will find a self-extractable file called
eml-dtp-install-1_2_8_4.exe .

Install DTP:

Before August 2003:
Use the internet version instead of the one on the
1.6.0.0 Topaz CD. Download this from the internet
www.datatex.co.za-> Downloads-> Emerald->
Datatex Tapi Interface for Panasonic
For new installation use Emerald.DTP.Install-1.1.2.exe
This will extract the DTP in the directory
"C:\Program Files\Datatex\Emerald"

For update use Emerald.DTP.Update-1.1.2.exe
This will extract the DTP in the directory
"C:\Program Files\Datatex\Emerald"

After August 2003:
On the Topaz CD released in August 2003 the
Emerald.DTP.Update-1.2.0.47.exe
Emerald.DTP.Install-1.2.0.47.exe will extract
the DTP in the directory "C:\Program Files\Datatex\DTP"

Upgrading:
If you run the upgrade and it does not ask to replace
the file, then you are running an older version of DTP.
The older versions of DTP was installed in the
C:\Program Files\Datatex\tapi folder. The .ini file
was also created in the TAPI folder. The .pip file
path is set in TOPAZ in SETUP > PROPERTIES >PABX,
normally C:\Program Files\Datatex\tapi\pabx.pip
and matches the file path in DTP.

To use the new setting for future upgrades:
Move all the files except the dtp.exe
( since it is already installed in
the Emerald folder (Emerald.DTP.Update-1.1.2.exe) or
DTP folder (Emerald.DTP.Update-1.2.0.47.exe) )
to the Emerald or DTP folder.
Change the .pip file path in TOPAZ and DTP to
"C:\Program Files\Datatex\Emerald\pabx.pip".
Ensure that the shortcut points to the correct
folder.

Port:
To check if correct port was used:
Right click on the icon, choose configuration
Make sure:
Network enable is ticked
and the port
and host is correct.
