Required Configuration

The Alert software requires the Windows 32 bits environment (Window 2000, Windows XP or Vista ). The required hardware configuration is the one recommended for the used environment. If this software is running with other applications and uses a lot of multimedia functionalities, it is worth better to provide with a well -dimensioned hardware configuration:

• Screen and Sup er VGA board (800x600), higher resolution advisable (1024x768 or more),
• 64 MB of memory available for Alert , or more according to the application configuration (number of defined tags...).
• Hard disk with 500 MB minimum (storage of audio files, boards...), 2 GB with Text To Speech
• A sound card with loudspeaker and microphone (not necessary but recommended). To call operators, it is necessary to add the appropriate hardware in accordance with the used media's:
• For the call directed to a local in site paging system, a simple serial link is sufficient,
• For the call directed to paging servers, Hayes modems mode are needed,
• For the vocal communications, it is necessary to use vocal modems. The Alert software can also work on a network and communicate with appl ications located on other stations. In this case a network card has to be plugged.
