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.
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.
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.
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
