Figure 2379: Selection of workstation code and entering of remark
Next, you will receive a list of available workstation codes, as shown in the figure above. Select one of them and enter a suitable remark that specifies which computer it concerns. The current computer name is presented as a default remark, which of course might be a satisfactory choice.
The workstation code is used to identify each specific workstation internally in cadett ELSA and will be returned when you need information for example about which workstation that is locking a specific object.
Workstation codes might be occupied by old computers that are no longer in use. That happens if you have forgotten to properly uninstall the workstation when a computer used for cadett ELSA is retired. In such cases, it might be a good idea to manually deactivate such workstations. Please be cautious however not to deactivate workstations that are in fact in use. Otherwise, you will kill them.
Disabling workstations is made from a running cadett ELSA. Enter the Settings module and activate the Workstation definitions tab. Select the workstation code to deactivate and click the Deactivate button. Follow the instructions given on the screen carefully. You will have to provide a password. If you do follow the instructions, you will be given information of how to obtain the password, otherwise not.
In general, the workstation code is a digit 1 - 9, a lower case letter a - z, or an upper case letter A - Z, with the exceptions of N and M, which are reserved for other purposes. Workstation code 0 (zero) is reserved for local installations.
With the Available and Used buttons below the workstation code list, you can toggle between viewing available and not available workstation codes. The option to view used codes might come in handy to find who is responsible for unintentionally occupied workstation codes, so that you can act appropriately to free them.
After this, please continue with the topic that is listed below.
