button. You can then re-import the file after a fresh install of a new<br />

database to regain your original settings.<br />

The ports.INI file is used to configure cash drawers, customer<br />

(pole) displays and change dispensers at a salespoint. After you<br />

install Sales, this file can be copied into the Sales folder if you<br />

have multiple salespoints that are using the same ports.INI<br />

settings.<br />

The entire <strong>Salesware</strong> documentation set is available as a collection<br />

(zip file) of PDF files that can be “unzipped” into the<br />

Siriusware/SiriusFS/Docs directory.<br />

Siriusware provides a number of installers for further functionality.<br />

To obtain some of these installers an additional fee may be<br />

required. The advantage to having all of the installers that you need<br />

is that you can copy them all into one place on your network<br />

(typically \Siriusware\SiriusFS\Install).<br />

A variety of utilities are available from the Siriusware web site.<br />

These utilities are documented in the <strong>Salesware</strong> User <strong>Guide</strong> for<br />

Advanced Users. These utilities can be copied into the<br />

Siriusware/SiriusFS/Utilities directory.<br />

Installing operating systems<br />

<strong>Salesware</strong> currently supports the following operating systems:<br />

• Windows XP Home (not recommended)<br />

• Windows XP Professional<br />

• Windows 2000 Professional<br />

• Windows 2000 Server<br />

• Windows Server 2003<br />

<strong>Installation</strong> of operating systems should be performed in accordance with standard Microsoft<br />

procedures. For hardware specifications, see the <strong>Salesware</strong> System Architecture and Specifications<br />

document.<br />

Note: If you want to run the installers on unsupported operating systems (not recommended), you must<br />

first download the appropriate Windows Installer installation file from Microsoft and install it.<br />

Windows Installer v2.0 must be installed prior to running the installs (these are available in service<br />

packs for supported operating systems, but must be downloaded from the Microsoft web site to install<br />

on non-supported operating systems). If you don’t do this, the following message pops up:<br />

This operating system is no longer supported by Microsoft and is therefore not supported by<br />

Siriusware. PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK! If you have problems with the installation, or have<br />
