Workstation Setup

To install a workstation (client PC) perform the following steps:

 

Open the file explorer on your Workstation
Open the installation folder on the server - default folder is ...programs\CTI Data Connector Enterprise Edition
Start Setup.exe on your Workstation
Make the Minimum Configuration Settings - use the button Help to get detail information about the configuration options

 

All settings which have been defined by the administrator are automatically applied. For details see: Distribute Client Setup.

Necessary Rights

During installation DLLs are registered. The user who installs the application needs a right to register DLLs.

 

The user who runs the application needs the following rights on the installation folder on the server:

 

Files cdcep.xml and cdcep.lic: read and write access
All other files: read access

 

Each PC (not user) needs a CTI license.

Silent Setup

CTI Data Connector Enterprise Edition supports a silent installation using command line parameters and configuration files. The installation package is a MSI package with a bootstrapper EXE. Therefore you can use the standard command line options for MSIEXEC files.

Command line parameters

Start the installer file - setup.exe with one or more of the following command line parameters

 

/exelang 1033  (uses English language for the application)
/exelang 1031 (uses German language for the application)
/exenoui /qn  (installs without a user interface)
AI_STARTMENU_SH=""  (does not create a program manager group)
AI_DESKTOP_SH="" (does not create a desktop icon)
AI_STARTUP_SH=""  (does not add CTI Data Connector Enterprise Edition to the startup group . This would NOT start CTI Data Connector Enterprise Edition when Windows starts)
DELETEREGISTRY="YES"  (deletes all registry settings to remove old / wrong configurations)

 

Example

setup.exe /exelang 1033 /exenoui /qn

 

 

 

Only at the end of the setup the user has to select his TAPI device driver and Microsoft Outlook™ contact folder.

 

Start the silent setup with: setup.exe /S

By default, the icon is not visible on Vista and Windows 7 in the notification area. To show the icon for CTI Data Connector Enterprise Edition in the system tray, click on the up arrow. Click on Customize.

 

 

This will open the Notification Area Icons control panel item. Select the icon for  CTI Data Connector Enterprise Edition and in the pick list select: Show icon and notification.
