Database name
This field shows the name and “path” of the database file to
which you are currently “attached.” That is, this is the file
which contains the actual data in your database.
Application home
directory
This field shows where the IDentifier for Windows application is installed.
Current working
directory
This field shows where the IDServer components are
installed.
IDServer INI file
This field shows the name and “path” of the file which stores
IDServer’s settings. (IDServer is the portion of IDentifier for
Windows which manages image capture, image retrieval and
badge printing.)
IDServer data path
This field shows the “path” where IDServer will save and
retrieve badge layout and image files used in a badge design.
Five preferences may be set to offer workstation-specific features and functionality. These
options must be configured at each workstation running IDentifier for Windows.
Default badge layout
The Default badge layout preference allows you to simplify data entry by establishing a
default badge type whenever a record is created. Select from the pick list the badge you
wish to use as the default. The list displays any “.bdg” (badge layout) files found in the
folder you specified in the “Server data path.” (See “IDServer Setup” on page 39) When
you create your own badge layouts, ensure that they are saved to the folder you specified
in the “Server data path” field. (Until you create your own badge layouts, only the
“default” badge will appear in this list. After you have created your badge layouts, you
may wish to return to this Configuration window to specify a new default badge.)
