1.4 DSS Player Pro System ConfigurationsDSS Player Pro and the administration applications offer a multitude of configuration options, which providethe flexibility to make the DSS Player Pro deployable in any work environment ranging from the single userconfiguration to the medium or large network configuration. DSS Player Pro configuration is classified into 2categories, Standalone and Workgroup configurations.1.4.1 Standalone System configurationThis configuration is suitable for environment where either networking or a network server is notavailable for use. Therefore, licensing management would not be required.For single user installation, the individual user license ID is used to install the application on the PC.All the application configuration and user settings will be contained in this configuration to the localPC and managed by the individual user. The installation is typically done interactively using thesoftware CD.For multi user installation, single license IDs or multi-license ID can be used in this configurationwhere the license is assigned to the individual application and Licensing is enforced when theapplication startup via broadcast to verify licensing. The drawback in this configuration is the UDPbroadcast on the network every time a Dictation Module or Transcription Module is started and themanagement of licensing when future additions is warranted.Multi-user installation can be performed interactively using the software CD or deployed silentlyusing the DSS Player Pro Installation Package (MSI) via Active Directory, Logon Script, or thirdparty deployment software.Silent installation requires a multi-license IDMulti-license ID can be obtained as an exchange for single licenses free ofcharge. Please contact your dealer or distributor for information aboutmulti-license ID exchange procedure.Required LicenseDictation Module single licenseTranscription Module single licenseModules to be installedDictation ModuleTranscription Module9

1.4.2 Workgroup System ConfigurationThis configuration is suitable for medium to large installation in a LAN environment. The DSS PlayerPro will be installed on the individual workstation but the licensing management for all theapplication will be centralized using the License Manager application.This configuration requires the use of License Manager administration application, which registersmulti-license IDs only. The benefit of using the License Manager to control and manage licensingcompared to using the multi-license ID as done in Standalone configuration in a networkenvironment is the centralization of the license and the communication between the DSS Player Promodules and License Manager which take place via HTTP instead of UDP.It is also possible in the workgroup configuration to centralize the administrative control for userprofiles, software and hardware updates by using the Manager Tool, System Configuration Program(SCP). The SCP empower system administrators to control the user application settings and allowthe user to roam in a network environment. Software and firmware updates deployment can also bemanaged with SCP.Required LicenseDictation Module multi-license IDTranscription Module multi-license IDModules to be installedDictation ModuleTranscription ModuleLicense ManagerSystem Configuration Program (optional)10

6 Upgrade InstallationThis section describes the upgrade installation54

6.1 Upgrade R4 with Single-license to R5 StandaloneThis section explains the upgrade procedure for R4 software installed with single license to R5 Standalonesystem.When installing DSS Player Pro R5 on a PC that has R4 software installed using single license, the installerwill automatically exchange R4 single license to R5 single license.This make the upgrade process seamless as no user intervention will be required to enter R5 License ID.■Installation Overview:R5 Application to be installed is dependent on the current R4 application installed on the PC. i.e., whenupgrading to R5 on a PC where only R4DM is installed, only R5DM will be installed. If you intend to installR5TM on the same PC, you need to install separately after upgrading R5DM successfully. See section “2.2Installing DSS Player Pro from CD”In cases where both R4DM and R4TM installed with single licenses, the upgrade module willautomatically generate R5 single license IDs for both and automatically upgrade both R4DM andR4TM at the same time.1. Execute Setup.exe from the DSS Player Pro R5 software CD.The Installer will start.2. Upgrade confirmation message is displayedR5 upgrade license ID is automatically generated and displayed. Select “Yes” to proceed.3. Customer Information and License ID dialog box confirmation.On “Customer Information” screen, R5 License ID is displayed in the Serial Number field.Subsequent settings are the same as a normal initial installation.See “2.2.1 Installation for a Standalone System”.55

6.2 Upgrade R4 with Multi-licenseWhen R4 software is installed using multi-license ID, it is not possible to upgrade to R5 manually since theinstaller will not be able to generate a new R5 multi-license ID. R4 silent installation performed by ActiveDirectory Group Policy or Logon Script can be upgraded when the same method of installation is used toperform the upgrade.As a prerequisite to upgrade, the R4 multi-license ID must be exchanged to R5 multi-license. The procedureoutlined below explains the necessary steps and conditions for a successful upgrade process.6.2.1 Exchange R4 Multi-license to R5 Multi-licenseR5 multi-license ID can be issued in exchange for R4 multi-license ID to the same dealer who requested theR4 multi-license originally on behalf of the customer. Olympus will exchange the R4 multi-license ID with R5multi-license ID free of charge. The multi-license ID can be provided as a license file ‘LICENSE.DAT’ whenrequested for silent installation.6.2.2 Upgrade R4 to R5 manuallyIt is not possible to use the R5 Software CD or R5 Upgrade Module to upgrade R4 installation withmulti-license ID interactively. R4 software must be completely uninstalled and R5 installed cleanly on the PCusing the exchanged R5 multi-license IDs.56

6.2.3 R4 Upgrade to R5 Standalone – Silent InstallationUpgrading R4 multi-license to R5 StandAlone multi-license version via silent installation is available onlywhen deploying the software via silent installation methods such as Group Policy and Logon Script.■Installation Overview:When upgrading with multi-license, only the current R4 application module can be upgraded to R5equivalent module. For example, if R4DM is already installed, you can upgrade it to R5DM but not R5TM.■Using Active Directory:In a domain environment where Active Directory is available, silent installation is possible. For detailedinformation on deploying R5 software via Group Policy, please check section "5.3 Registering InstallationPackage with Group Policy" in the R5 Installation Guide.■Using Logon Script:Installation procedure for silent installation using logon script.1. Obtain Multi-license ID(LICENSE.DAT)See section “5.2.1 Obtaining multi-license ID (license.dat file).”2. Prepare Installation PackageCopy the folders below of DSS Player Pro R5 CD to a shared folder accessible by all thetarget installation PCs.\DSSProR5Copy LICENSE.DAT file provided to the DSSProR5 folder noted Step 1. Confirm thatDSSPlayer.msi and LICENSE.DAT are stored in the same folder.3. Prepare Batch File for Logon ScriptThe details of command switches that can be used in the batch file are described in section“7.2 How to Use Installation Options”.4. Modify Logon script of the target usersSee section “5.4 Register Installation Package Application with Logon Script”.Installation setup on the server is complete.5. Log in to domain with user account that uses the logon script registered in Step 4.When logging on from Client PC, Logon Script is read and the installation is performedautomatically.57

■When silent installation is not availableIn the environment where domain control is not used, the distribution method introduced above is notapplicable. Clean installation will be required as upgrade process is not possible.Execute Setup.exe of DSS Player Pro R5 and enter multi-license ID in the installation wizard CustomerInformation license ID window. Using LICENSE.DAT file is not possible in this case.6.2.4 R4 Upgrade to R5 Workgroup – Silent InstallationUpgrading R4 multi-license to R5 WorkGroup is possible only when deploying the software via silentinstallation methods such as Group Policy and Logon Script■Installation Overview:When upgrading R4 software to R5 WorkGroup, the specified target application to be installed will bedeployed regardless of the R4 application installed on the PC. Upon successful installation of R5 application,all R4 applications installed on the PC will be completely uninstalled.In R5 WorkGroup configuration, R5 multi-license IDs are managed for both DM and TM individually using theLicense Manager application. R5 multi-license IDs obtained according to “6.2.1 Exchange R4 Multi-licenseto R5 Multi-license” must be registered with License Manager.■Using Active Directory:In a domain environment where Active Directory is available, silent installation via Active Directory ispossible. For detailed information on deploying R5 software via Group Policy, please check "5.3 RegisteringInstallation Package with Group Policy".■Using Logon Script:Install procedure of silent installation using Logon Script.1. Obtain R5 Multi-license IDSee section “5.2.1 Obtaining multi-license ID (license.dat file).”2. Install License ManagerCheck section “4.2 Installing License Manager”.In License Manager, register multi-license ID obtained in Step 1.3. Prepare Repository (If user profiles to reside on the network)Create shared folder (Repository) accessible from all managed PCs.The details of setting a repository are described in section “7.1 Repository Setting”.4. Install System Configuration Program (If user profiles to reside on the network)Check section “4.1 Installing Manager Tool”.5. Prepare Installation PackageCopy the following folder to a shared folder accessible by all installation target PCs.\DSSProR5*This shared folder is not necessarily the same share folder created in Step 3 unless the user profiles areto reside on the network and to be managed using the SCP.58

6. Prepare Batch File for Logon ScriptThe details of command switches that can be used in the batch file are described in section“7.2 How to Use Installation Options”. Command line examples for profile control methodare indicated as below.・When supporting local profile management on PC (Not managed using SCP)■ Individual User Settings (DM+TM):msiexec /I “\\OLY1\..\DSSProR5\DSSPlayer.msi” SYSTEM=WORKGROUP SETTING=INDIVIDUALLM= MODULE=DMTM /qn■ ALL User Settings (only TM):msiexec /I “\\OLY1\..\DSSProR5\DSSPlayer.msi” SYSTEM=WORKGROUP SETTING=ALLUSERLM= MODULE=TM /qn*< LicenseManager Address > is the PC name or IP address of the PC which License Manager is installed・When supporting roaming profile management on Network (Manage using SCP)msiexec /I “\\OLY1\..\DSSProR5\DSSPlayer.msi” SYSTEM=WORKGROUP REPOSITORY=/qn* is the UNC network path of the shared folder created according to Step 3.7. Modify Logon script of the target usersAdd the batch file to the Logon script to finalize setting for deployment.8. Log in to domain with the target user account registered in previous step.When logging on from Client PC, Logon Script is read and the installation is performedautomatically.■Silent Installation in Windows Workgroup environment (no Domain)When a domain controller is not available in a network environment, it is not possible to centralizedeployment of the software to the workstation via Group Policy or Logon script as described above. In thiscase, R5 WorkGroup can be deployed locally on the workstations using the R5 software CD. See section“2.2.3 Installation for a Workgroup System”.59

6.3 Update R5 to Later R5 versionsIn order to properly maintain R5 software with the latest product feature and bug fixes, it is important todeploy newer R5 releases to update existing R5 installations. This section explains the update process forexisting R5 installation.6.3.1 Simple Update under the same type of installationTo perform a basic software version update for R5 (StandAlone/WorkGroup), the same method ofinstallation procedure is recommended as the installation method originally used to install the software. i.e.,installing the application originally from CD, and then attempting to do a version update using ActiveDirectory would be unsuccessful.■R5 silent installation via Active DirectoryIn the environment where Windows Servers domain controller is used, silent installation via Active Directoryis possible. For detailed information on deploying R5 software via Group Policy, please check “5.3 RegisteringInstallation Package with Group Policy”.Installation procedure of silent installation via logon script is described below.1. Prepare installation PackageCopy the following folders of DSS Player Pro R5 CD to a shared folder on the network thatcan be viewed from all target workstations.\DSSProR5- The shared folder must be accessible from the client PCs.2.

It is maintained as a file separately from an audio file and is recorded toprovide a Transcriptionist with instructions.Job DataA collective term for several demographical settings associated with a recording, e.g., Author ID,Worktype, Option Items, and Comments.By centrally managing these settings as Job Data on the application side, each dictation can beedited and configured more easily.Noise CancelA process that reduces noise output by filtering out noise components from an audio file duringplayback. The cancellation effect can be adjusted in three different levels.MP3An MPEG-1-based audio compression method. Like other major audio compression techniques,it uses a lossy compression method that achieves a high compression rate by deducting lessaudible portions from sound data. DSS Player supports MP3 only for playback. The fileextension is .MP3.MSI PackageA Windows Installer-compliant package. DSS Player Pro R5 executes the MSI packages ofmodules when performing installations and upgrades.OLEWhen dragging and dropping an audio file onto a document file, it can be configured to be anembedded object or a linked object.An embedded object brings all audio data into the file, resulting in a larger amount of data. Thefile with audio data embedded can be played on another PC that has DSS Player installed. A filelinked with audio data only retains the file name and path of the audio file, resulting in a smalleramount of data. The file may not be able to be played if it cannot refer to the audio data path.Option ItemAn item associated with a Worktype. Up to 10 items can be registered with combinations ofvalues.Option Items can be input with tools such as Baltech Transponder and a barcodescanner/reader.OwnershipAn attribute that, based on Author privileges, prevents an audio file from moving to the Finishedfolder in Transcription Module after the file has been transcribed.
