$images\ico_station.gif$ Defining the stations in the system

Introduction

For each station in your IGSS system, you need to define a number of properties. These properties include the IGSS station type and station name.

The Station tab

When you define a station, the Station tab appears allowing you to choose the relevant station type and define a unique station name. When you choose a station type, the relevant set of properties and options will appear.

Multiuser systems

In a multiuser system, define all the stations in the system from the IGSS Server. On each operator station, enter the System Configuration program and specify the station name exactly matching the one specified on the server. When the operator station establishes connection to the server, the configuration will be downloaded. IGSS will recognize the station name. If you open the System Configuration program again, this station name will be highlighted.

Single user and server setup

If you define one of the following station types, a number of setup tabs will appear in the right pane.
