EMASPLUS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
EMASPLUS runs in a standard MS-DOS environment. Any network
operating system that guarantees 100% DOS compatibility, such as
Novell Netware, will be able to run it. Although EMASPLUS was
developed and tested in Novell 3.11 and Novell 4.1 environments, a
conscious effort was made not to use any Novell-specific features
that would limit cross-platform compatibility.
RECOMMENDED MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS
These minimum requirements are intended to illustrate the existing
equipment that could be used to operate EMASPLUS. Due to rapid
advances in hardware power and lowering costs, we recommend
substantially more powerful equipment for any new purchases.
Because of the substantial differences in local requirements and
options available, USAGroup Xxxx-Xxxxxx cannot be responsible for
configuring your network. Your data center support staff or other
local support resources should be able to provide guidance and
assistance in configuring an appropriate network and workstations.
HARDWARE
FILE SERVER
Uninterruptible power supply providing 10-15 minutes reserve power
is highly recommended. DOS-compatible network software is required.
We also recommend that equipment and procedures be in place for
regular system back-up.
Hard drive requirements are highly dependent on your usage of
EMASPLUS and other intended uses of the network. 35 Megabytes of
disk space are required for the software and support tables.
Typical users reserve approximately 600 Megabytes of disk space for
every 50,000 records. This can vary substantially.
RECOMMENDED WORKSTATIONS
For new purchases and workstations used for batch processes such as
reporting, and importing and exporting, the following workstation
is recommended:
Pentium processor, VGA color monitor w/100MB available hard
disk space*, 12MB RAM, and DOS 6.0 or higher.
* EMASPLUS TAKES SUBSTANTIAL ADVANTAGE OF PERFORMANCE GAINED BY
TEMPORARY WORK FILES OF 20 TO 60 MB LOCAL AT THE WORKSTATION.
DISKLESS WORKSTATIONS MAY BE USED BUT ADEQUATE INDIVIDUAL WORKSPACE
WILL BE REQUIRED ON A NETWORK SERVER. EXPERIENCE INDICATES THAT
DISKLESS WORKSTATIONS WILL EXPERIENCE DRAMATICALLY SLOWER
PERFORMANCE DUE TO EXTRA NETWORK TRAFFIC.
MINIMUM WORKSTATIONS
Existing equipment can be used for telecounseling if it meets the
following minimium requirements:
486 CPU, VGA color monitor w/100MB available hard disk space*,
8MB RAM, and DOS 6.0 or higher.
PERFORMANCE
Certain processes require adequate system performance to be
time-efficient. For example, import speed is highly dependent upon
your hardware and network configuration. For example, clients using
various hardware and network configurations report import speeds
varying from 4 to 12 records per minute. This speed depends on the
combined performance of your server, network, and individual work
stations.
MODEM
A 28.8 Xxxxx-compatible modem on one workstation and a dedicated
analog telephone line are required for technical support.
PRINTERS
EMASPLUS supports printing with HP LaserJet III and higher printers.
*EMASPLUS TAKES SUBSTANTIAL ADVANTAGE OF PERFORMANCE GAINED BY
TEMPORARY WORK FILES OF 20 TO 60 MB LOCAL AT THE WORKSTATION.
DISKLESS WORKSTATIONS MAY BE USED BUT ADEQUATE INDIVIDUAL WORKSPACE
WILL BE REQUIRED ON A NETWORK SERVER. EXPERIENCE INDICATES THAT
DISKLESS WORKSTATIONS WILL EXPERIENCE DRAMATICALLY SLOWER
PERFORMANCE DUE TO EXTRA NETWORK TRAFFIC.
