Workstations:
We recommend a Windows 7 / XP / 2000 / NT operating system. These are remarkably more stable
than their predecessors. MediTrax has been tested on Windows Vista workstations and no
incompatibilities have been found.
File Server:
Whether you require a single workstation, a local area network (LAN) within
your facility, a wide area network (WAN) for remote data entry, or a multi-site installation,
you won't outgrow the capacity of MediTrax to handle virtually unlimited records in its
data tables. If you don't operate on a network now but might wish to in the future, we're
ready to grow with you ... so you can start using MediTrax today with the power of true
integrated data management for the future!
MediTrax has been successfully tested and used on a variety of NetWare- and NetBios-compatible
LAN / WAN software platforms as well as Windows NT and Windows 2000 / 2003 / 2008 server software,
XP peer-to-peer networking, and a variety of wireless network platforms as well as
Citrix XP Terminal Server environments. MediTrax
utilizes record locking and data integrity functions which are fully NetBios-compatible.
The executable program file may be stored either on the file server, or on each individual
workstation in a client-server configuration to minimize network bandwidth.
Note that MediTrax does not require a Network Operating System to implement its use over a
network. For definition purposes, a Network Operating System (NOS) is a software program that
controls a network and its message (e.g., packet) traffic and queues
controls access by multiple users to network resources such as files
provides for certain administrative functions, including security.
A Network Operating System is not the same as the peer-to-peer networking tools
provided by some existing OSs (Windows 7 or XP, for example). An NOS (such as Windows Server 2003)
is an OS that has been specifically written to keep networks running at optimal performance.
MediTrax has been tested in Windows Server NT, 2000, 2003, and 2008 environments.
