1. Introduction
A. Purpose of This Guide
This document is intended to provide the information required to install the hardware,
sensory network and wiring components of a Versus V-Direct
TM
Locating System. Read
this entire document before proceeding with the installation. A general understanding of
wiring/telephone installation tools and techniques is assumed.
B. Computer Requirements
The minimum computer specifications listed are based on a single, middle- to large-sized
department. Sites deploying multiple departments or a campus-wide solution may
consider a higher end hardware platform. The scope of current and future workflow
processing, number of concurrent client workstation and integration connections and total
count of tracked badges/tags should be taken into consideration when determining the
proper hardware platform.
1. Versus Application Server
The application server is a dedicated system (physical or virtual machine) that
manages all server-side processing and data communication for the Versus
solution.
To support Web service integrations, reporting services and mobile device
applications, IIS is enabled on the Versus Application Server; an existing IIS
server can be utilized.
