Required:
    SMDRLinkRileReader service: version 1.0.0.0 or newer
    Available on request from support@datatex.co.za for TNG clients.
    SMDRLink WebAdmin for Windows: version 1.1.3.1 or newer
    Available on request from support@datatex.co.za for TNG clients.
Installation and Configuration:

SMDRLinkRileReader service:

    Install the SmdrlinkFileReader service on the pc where the input files are located.
    Start and Stop the service.
    Stop the service.
    To do this, go to "Control Panel" -> "Administrative Tools".
    Double-click on "services" and select the "SMDRLinkFileReader".
    Click on "stop".

    Start the service.
    To do this, go to "Control Panel" -> "Administrative Tools".
    Double-click on "services" and select the "SMDRLinkFileReader".
    Click on "start".

    A default ini file will now be created.

    The ini entries are as follows.

    ListenPort: This is the port the smdrlink will connect to via TCP.
    EOLChar : This is the EOL character the SmdrlinkFileReader will search for when reading data
    CheckInterval: The frequency at which the file will be checked for new data.
    FileName : The file that will be read.

    example ini file:

    Code: Select all
    [CONNECTION]
    ListenPort=27997
    [DATA]
    EOLChar=10
    CheckInterval=2000
    FileName=C:\Program Files\Datatex\smdrlink\FileReader\data.txt


    Configure the ini to point to your input file.
    Save the changes made and close the ini file.

    Start the SMDRLinkFileReader service to activate the import.

SMDRLink WebAdmin:


    Now set up the smdrlink to connect to the file reader by setting up TCP networking on the smdrlink.

    Log into SMDRLink WebaAdmin, http://127.0.0.1:3081,
    where '127.0.0.1' is the IP of the PC SMDRLink WebAdmin is installed on.

    Select 'Network' from the drop-down menu.
    Enter your 'Terminating Character'.
    'PABX IP': Set the 'PABX IP' = to the IP adress of the machine on which the SmdrlinkFileReader is installed.
    Enter the 'PABX Port', default port 27997
    Set 'Alcatel OmniPCX connection' to 'Off'.
    Set 'TCP server' to 'Off'.
    Click on the 'Apply Changes' button.
