PoINT Publisher: Getting Started

1System Requirements

The following hardware and software is basically required:

1. PC with Intel Pentium processor or any compatible processor,

2. A CDROM drive for installation,

3. Microsoft Windows 2000 with Service Pack 3 or above, Win

dows 2003, or Windows XP with Service Pack 1 or above,

4. For detailed requirements concerning CPU, RAM, and hard disks,

please refer to the actual values listed in the README.TXT file on

your installation medium.

Please note:

Running other recording software in parallel to PoINT

Publisher may cause initialisation and recording er

rors. In some cases, other recording software replaces

standard system components by incompatible versions

at installation time. This may cause permanent failures

of PoINT Publisher.

2Installation

Before You Install

Please read the file README.TXT on your installation media first. It

contains important information about system requirements, installa

tion, restrictions, and additional features of the current version of

”PoINT Publisher”.

The following installation sequence is recommended:

First connect the autoloader to your PC and, if the loader supports

printing, install the device drivers for the disc printer. This proce

dure is described in the documentation delivered with your hard

ware.

5. Install ”PoINT Publisher”, preferably on a local hard disk drive.

PoINT Publisher: Getting Started

The Installation Process

The PoINT Publisher installation CD includes an interactive installa

tion program that installs all components of PoINT Publisher.

Your login must have Administrator rights to run the setup program.

1. Insert the CD in your CDROM drive.

If the setup program does not start automatically, perform the follow

ing steps:

2. Click on ‘Start’ and then on ‘Run’.

3. Type the following command in the Command Line box (replace

‘Drive’ with the drive letter of your CDROM drive):

Drive:\SETUP <Enter>

The welcome screen of the installation program appears.

4. Click ‘Install’ and follow the screen prompts to continue the instal

lation.

The installation process offers two options:

Server Installation

Client Installation

The server installation is required on the computer to which the auto

loader is connected.

The client installation can be done on any other computer in the net

work. However, usage of a client installation and the number of clients

that can be used together with a “PoINT Publisher” server depends on

the purchased license. For more information about licensing please re

fer to section 3.

Most recent information about requirements, supported hardware, and

installation can be found in the “readme” files on the installation me

dia.

3Device Configuration

Starting ”PoINT Publisher - Server”

1. Click on the ‘Start’ button to open the start menu.

2. Click on ‘Programs’ and then on PoINT Publisher. This opens the

program group of PoINT Publisher and shows the installed com

ponents.

PoINT Publisher: Getting Started

3. In the PoINT Publisher program group, click on ”PoINT Publisher

Server”. This starts the program.

Entering a License Key

As long you have not entered a License Key, ”PoINT Publisher 

Server” will display a message box after starting the program, which

indicates that an valid License Key has not been entered. The software

will run without a License Key for 7 days with all functions and fea

tures being enabled. Please refer to chapter 4 for information on how

to get and how to enter the License Key.

If after 7 days no valid License Key has been entered PoINT Publisher

changes the functionality to the demonstration mode which means

that the program can be started but recording of discs is disabled.

Configuring PoINT Publisher - Server

When you run “PoINT Publisher Server” the first time after installa

tion you have to configure the software. Later on you may alter the

configuration whenever this is necessary. PoINT Publisher stores and

uses the current configuration until you change it.

You may open the ‘Device Configuration’ dialogue by command ‘Set

tings’ of the ‘Configuration’ menu. When you start ”PoINT Publisher 

Server” for the first time, the dialogues are displayed automatically.

1. Setup the connected hardware.

2. Select recording speed and simulation mode (if required).

Additional settings can be done in the ‘General’, ‘Defaults’ and ‘Auto

loader’ dialogues.

In Windows 2000/XP/2003 PoINT Publisher will automatically disable

the ‘Autorun’ function. You have to reboot the system to make the

changes effective.

The ‘Autorun’ function is disabled in order to prevent Windows from

starting recorded CDs automatically before they are unloaded from

the recorders. Additional information can be found in the Online

Help of PoINT Publisher.

Setting up the connected Hardware

To open the setup dialogues, click on the ‘Setup’ button in the ‘Device

Configuration’ dialogue.

PoINT Publisher: Getting Started

If several autoloaders are supported, a selection dialogue will appear

from which the installed type of autoloader can be chosen. Press ‘OK’

to confirm the selection. Then the autoloader specific setup dialogue

will appear.

PoINT Publisher: Getting Started

It displays the current settings. The layout of the dialogue may vary

depending on the functionality of your specific hardware. For exam

ple, some loaders do not use a serial port, others don’t provide printing

support.

First you should define port and printer driver. Then you may specify

your drives. To do that, select the number of groups (if applicable),

click on the exact position of the drive (if applicable), and click on the

‘Add’ button and select a drive from the opening list. Please note that

”PoINT Publisher” needs to know the exact position of drives in some

loaders.

Finally confirm your choice by clicking on ‘OK’. This will return to

the ‘Settings’ dialogue which shows the configured drives. The ‘Test’

button should now finally be pressed to check the current settings.

The tests include checking the serial port, the communication with

the loader, and the existence of the selected drives(s). During the tests

a disc will be loaded to and unloaded from all configured drives. This

test must complete without errors. Otherwise ”PoINT Publisher” will

not work properly.

PoINT Publisher: Getting Started

If you have setup an autoloader (not a CDR Tower) you will find this

page in the ‘Settings’ dialogue.

In order to avoid wasting discs by a malfunctioning recorder, you can

instruct ”PoINT Publisher” to disable it after a certain number of fail

ures that occurred in a row with this device. In case that a recorder is

disabled, processing continues with the remaining recorders. Disabled

recorders are automatically reenabled when you start the next pro

duction cycle. This option is not available in manually loaded tower

versions.

If you want to permanently disable a malfunctioning recorder, remove

it from the configuration in the hardware Setup dialogue.

For autoloaders with a disc printer and a rotation function the next op

tion is available. Jobs that require disc rotation to a marker before

printing will be excluded from further processing when a certain limit

of rotator errors occurred. Usually rotator errors are caused by discs

that have no marker.
