instructions, the ADDS 5600RM Remote

Management Server will be installed on

your network within a few minutes.

Understanding the ADDS 5600RM

The ADDS 5600RM (Terminal Management Server) software is embedded

software that turns an ADDS 5600 Linux Based Terminal into a Management Server.

The ADDS 5600RM acts as a standalone appliance preventing installation of

software on a Windows or UNIX server.

The ADDS 5600RM just needs to be connected to the network, a keyboard,

mouse or monitor are not necessary.

The ADDS 5600RM comes with following core components:

-Apache Web Server

-SQLite DataBase

-PHP middleware

All data used (configuration file, new firmware, message) or generated (logs,

inventory list) by the ADDS 5600RM are stored on a remote Network Drive.

Once installed, the Administrator will only need to use Internet Explorer or

Mozilla Browser to access the ADDS 5600RM in a secure connection (Https).
