Installing SoftDent for Client/Server Configurations This document describes the process for installing the client/server configuration of SoftDent. Read this document carefully before installing the new software. A client/server configuration requires both server and workstation installations. The server is the host computer on which the client/server software is installed and contains all of the software system data. A workstation is a computer that has the software installed but must connect to the server to access system data. A workstation must be mapped to the shared drive of the host computer on which the client/server software resides. Important: Contact a Carestream support representative before proceeding. Related Documentation See the CS SoftDent Practice Management Software Online Help for more information. Getting Started Before installing SoftDent, make sure that each computer in your network meets the minimum system requirements. For information about system requirements, see the System Requirements documentation shipped with your software. Using Radiographic Images CAUTION: Radiographic images are not intended for diagnostic use when viewed on displays or monitors that do not meet system specifications. For more information, check the CS Imaging Software System Requirements. Mapping a Network Drive Share the server s hard drive and map a drive on each workstation running the software to the drive. For information about sharing and mapping drives and folders, see the documentation and online help provided with your Microsoft Windows operating system. Backing Up Data Before you install SoftDent, back up your data. For information about backing up your data, see the documentation provided by your backup media vendor.

Installing and Activating the SoftDent KIOSK Check-In Module on a Workstation You must install and activate the KIOSK check-in module before you can use it. Installing the SoftDent KIOSK Check-In Module on a Workstation A dedicated KIOSK workstation must be activated from SoftDent on the SoftDent server. To accommodate this, you must share the KIOSK workstation s hard drive. For more information on sharing and mapping drives and folders, see the documentation and online help provided with your Microsoft Windows operating system. Important: The KIOSK setup files are placed in the C:\SoftDent\KSetup directory of the SoftDent server. If you update the software via the Internet, you must share this directory so you can browse to this folder from the KIOSK workstation you are setting up. Since non-employees access KIOSK workstations, permissions for user accounts on these computers should allow access to ONLY the KSetup subdirectory, and not the main SoftDent directory above it. Before installing the KIOSK check-in module, verify that this feature is enabled in your license file. To purchase the module or for additional information, contact your Carestream representative. To install the KIOSK check-in module on a computer: 1 Insert the CS SoftDent DVD in the DVD drive. The SoftDent Installation window is displayed.

Installing Additional Databases An additional database setup enables you to run multiple independent SoftDent databases across your network. Using this setup, multiple practices serving different patients and maintaining separate SoftDent licenses can set up a database for each doctor and access all databases from the server or workstations across the network. Important: Before starting, share the SoftDent directory on the server machine, install version 16.2, and save a backup of the directory. For more information, see Getting Started on page 1. The primary server is the machine on which the primary database is configured, and a secondary server is any networked computer on which the SoftDent software and database resides. After configuring the primary database, you can install additional databases on the primary server and secondary servers. An additional database is any licensed SoftDent database added to a networked computer. Depending on practice requirements, add an empty database or install an existing SoftDent database to the additional database environment. After setting up an additional database environment, data files on all servers can be accessed from any networked SoftDent server or workstation. Configuring the Primary Server Important: If you installed a multi-database environment and use SoftDent, version 12.0 or earlier, contact a Carestream support representative before proceeding. Before configuring the primary server, do the following: Install SoftDent for client/server configurations, version 16.2, on the server on which the primary database resides. Share the server s drive. Check the server s disk space and ensure it contains enough space to manage multiple databases. To configure the primary server to support a multi-database environment: 1 Upgrade to SoftDent for client/server configurations, version 16.2. See Installing SoftDent on page 3. 2 Verify that all programs on the server are closed and insert the CS SoftDent DVD in the DVD drive. The SoftDent Installation window is displayed.

Any new database configured to support an additional database environment can be accessed from any networked SoftDent server or workstation. Important: Before starting, install version 14.2 and save a backup of the directory. For more information, see Getting Started on page 1. Before installing a new database: Configure the primary server. For more information, see Configuring the Primary Server on page 24.
