Introduction


The syntax of the v2 bridge is compatible with Sidexis v4.  However, there are some key differences in the storage location of required ini files that prevent the v2 bridge from simply being mapped to v4.  This article will describe the steps required in order to use the existing v2 bridge with v4.


Steps


  1. Download the Slida Configuation Tool on the client Workstation
  2. Run the configuration tool.  It will automatically detect the presence of v4. Click Run.
  3. The configuration tool will create a proxy in c:\sidexis
  4. Open LiveDDM and navigate to User -> Terminal Settings -> Imaging
  5. Select Sidexis v2 in the Imaging Software drop down
  6. Click Browse and select c:\sidexis\sidexis.exe in order to set the Imaging Software Path (note that the exe you are selecting is the proxy created by the Slida Configuration tool)
  7. Save Terminal Setting changes


Path\File Access Error

If you receive a Path\File Access Error in LiveDDM when attempting to launch the bridge then Sidexis may not be properly configured on the workstation.  In most cases, the error is caused by a missing File value under the FromStation0 section in the sifiledb.ini file.  Please contact the appropriate vendor to have Sidexis configured.
