How to - Install a VantagePoint Workstation

Installing extra workstations in VantagePoint is an easy process.

Before starting to install make sure both your Server & Workstation have static IP addresses.
Once you have the server installed and running. See Guide Installing Vantage point software.
Install the workstation at the client PC and run the VantagePoint workstation.

Once the Workstation is run you will be prompted for a license code. Click OK

You will now see an activation screen:

Take note of the user code outlined in Red. Copy and paste this code into an email and send to support@sensoraccess.co.uk

We will supply you with a Activation code by return email.

Once the Activation code is received paste the code into the Activation Area and click the Activation button.

Note: if your installation is using the Video module, meal or visitor management modules these will need to be registered again at the client with different license codes from the server.

At the log in screen click onto the database tab and fill in the fields.

Copy all the Fields exactly from the Servers database tab.

Tip

The SQL server needs to allow connections from remote PCs.
Check the following in your SQL config manager:

Make sure all the protocols for your server instance are Enabled.
At the TCIP properties tab, ensure the protocol is enabled and listening for incoming connections.

If you are still unable to connect to the SQL server from the workstation PC check the following details are correct.

IP2 should be showing the IP address of the workstation PC.

TCP port is the Port the server is listening on.

Try a ping command to see if the client PC can Ping the server.

[Ping IP address of server] e.g. ping 192.168.0.15.

Try a telnet command from the workstation PC to see if ports are being blocked by a firewall.

If you are successful you will see a blank command box. 
Install Microsoft management studio at the client PC and try connect to the SQL server remotely.
