LINK Systems LinkNet II - Manual (Page 27)

4.3 Database Location Configuration (Standalone and Server Versions Only)
By default, LinkNet stores its
database files in the directory where it is
installed. This can be changed,
however, so that the database files can
be stored on a network server for easier
backup. To change the database
location, select “Configure” and then
“Database Directory” from the LinkNet
menu. After logging in (refer to section
4.1), a dialog similar to Figure 4.7
should appear. Type the new directory in the edit box. Alternatively, hit the “…” button at the right of
edit box to bring up a standard windows directory browsing dialog.

4.4 Database and Server IP Address Configuration (Client Version Only)
LinkNet client software needs to
know the location of the database files
the LinkNet server software is using as
well as the TCP/IP address of the
LinkNet server on the network. In
addition, the update rate must be
configured. The update rate determines
how often the pressroom overview
screen is updated with new information.
Typically, the update rate should be set
somewhere in the neighborhood of 10
seconds. It can be set as low as 1
second, if desired.
