Formatting the Jump Drive and license copying

Use your personal computer to format USB drive to NTFS. Connect the thumb drive to your computer. Open “My Computer”. When the removable drive appears, right click on it. Select “Format”. A pop-up window will appear. Under the “File System” pull down menu, select “NTFS” and then click “Start” at the bottom of the pop-up window. The system will automatically format the drive into NTFS.

Copy the license files from floppy disks to the NTFS formatted jump drive. Full disclosure license and bed license will have the same file name. In order to avoid any confusion, create two folders in jump drive. Name them “Bed License” and “Full disclosure”. Insert the bed license diskette that will have a part number 419930-001 and copy all files into the “Bed license” folder of the jump drive. Repeat the same procedure for the full disclosure license diskette that will have a part number 419930-005 .

Note: If the part numbers are different then find the details in the shipping slip or the actual quotation for the equipment order.

Site preparation

Connect a port of one switch through CAT5 cable to the MC (Mission critical – Real time) Ethernet port of the CIC and the second switch to the IX (Information Exchange – Non-real time) Ethernet port of the CIC. If you have more than 1 central station, then connect them all in same way.
