Introduction
The Software WinCan8 has originally been developed for operation in a TV truck. Taking
into account certain rules you also may run WinCan8 within a network domain.
This documentation addresses to network administrators and resellers of the WinCan8
software. It describes 3 sustainable concepts of embedding PC workstations WinCan8 has
been installed on into a network domain.
1.1 Server with MS-ACCESS databases
This concept is based on a file server
only. Once the survey is finished the WinCan8
projects are copied directly on the server hard drive and called up from the CLIENT computer in the WinCan8 project manager. Data stream fluctuations within the network can
have a big influence on the speed when launching or reading your project data.
The software module Meta-DB
can additionally be installed on every CLIENT-PC and
allows searching for inspection data within a larger group of projects (see documentation
WinCan8_MetaDB).
Page 4/42
Introduction
1.2 Server with MSSQL database
This concept is based on a central MSSQL server database AND a file server
for
storage of the media (photos, video clips etc.). Both items can physically be established
either on the same or on two different machines.
1.3 Server with ORACLE database
This concept is based on a central ORACLE server database AND a file server
for
media storage (photos, video clips etc.). Both items can physically be established either
on the same or on two different machines.
All the 3 concepts mentioned require some tasks to be done prior to the launch of the
WinCan8 software. The following chapters are going to describe in detail these tasks:
 Checking the network environment (IP addresses; firewall settings)
 Installation of the network dongle (network hardlock)
Page 5/42
Checking the network environment
2
Checking the network environment
Before you start any installation of a WinCan8 related software item within a network
domain the network administrator as a responsible for the server operation will have to
check the issues listed below:
 Defining the IP addresses of the client PCs and the server as a part of the same subnet as shown in the following example:
SERVER: 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0
(subnetmask=255.255.255.0)
CLIENT:
(subnetmask=255.255.255.0)
192.168.1.5/255.255.255.0
 Unblocking of the communication port 3047 in the Windows Firewall. This has to be
done on the SERVER as well as on the CLIENT side.
1. Open the Security Center
in the Control Panel.
3. Select the item Windows Firewall
.
4. Open the tab Exceptions and click on the button AddPort… .
5. Unblock the port 3047 for both protocols TCP and UDP.
If operating with either a MS SQL or an ORACLE server database you will have to unblock
additionally one of the corresponding ports below:
MSSQL:
port 1433
ORACLE: port 1521

Network license, prerequisites
3.1 Hardware:
SERVER:
 Server with server operating system (Windows SERVER 2008/2003)
 Network-Dongle (USB Hardlock) from Aladdin
 Free USB port on the server
CLIENT:
 See documentation WinCan8_Hardware_Software Requirement
USB Device Server (depending upon the server environment):
In case the server administrator has defined different virtual machines (e.g. VMWare with
MORE than one host) the use of a USB Device Server connected to the real machine via
Ethernet is recommended. The network dongle is finally plugged into that device.
3.2 Software:
SERVER
 Windows SERVER 2008/2003
 Licence query file (ALF file) that corresponds to the hardlock/dongle
CLIENT
 Windows 7/VISTA or Windows XP, SP3
 Oracle client software: version 10G or higher (in case of Oracle databases)
 Valid license file (VTC file) that corresponds to the hardlock/dongle and contains all
the single licenses for WinCan8 modules needed.
 Hardlock driver: hldrv32.exe
 Hardlock server software: hlsw32.exe
 Hardlock monitoring software: aksmon32_setup.exe
 Hardlock diagnosis software: aksdiag32_setup.exe
A VTC file used together with a network dongle contains licenses für 5 work stations per
default. An license extension for up to 10, 15 or even 20 work stations is possible.

Plug the Hardlock into a free USB port on the server. As soon
as the hardware is recognized by the system, the red control
lamp starts glowing.
Copy the ALF file to the hard drive of the server into the folder
C:\WINDOWS\system32 (32 bit) or
C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64 (64 bit).
The name of this file (e.g. 5990.alf) must always correspond
to the number of the Hardlock.
4.2 Installation of the hardlock server
Double click on the file hlsw32.exe to run the installation of the hardlock server. First
select again the installation language and follow the further instructions given by the
wizard:
Page 9/42
Click on the button Next to install the hardlock server.
For smooth operation the hardlock server needs the latest version of the hardlock driver.
Older driver versions are automatically detected and replaced.

USB Device Server (USB to Network)
5
USB Device Server (USB to Network)
An additional hardware element like the USB Device Server allows you to run the network dongle independently from the Aladdin hardlock server. This is especially useful if
the hardlock server has been installed within a virtual environment (e.g. VMWare). So
the commands sent from the USB device can pass through the LAN via TCP/IP to the
PC/Server.
The use of the device type Silex SX-3000GB is recommended:
Installation hints:
 The USB Device Server and its corresponding driver software must be installed on the
server machine which the Aladdin hardlock server has already been installed on.
 The device must be configured as a service. So the network dongle will be available
without any login. The corresponding software SX-Virtual Link as Service can be downloaded from the website of the manufacturer:
http://www.silexeurope.com/de/home/support/produktgruppen/commondownloads/device-server-and-virtual-link.html.

Activation of the license
This chapter is describing the licensing procedure step by step to get the license of
WinCan8 activated for the whole network domain.
Run the the Aladdin monitor on the server as shown below:
Check whether the Hardlock Server Service has been activated:
Page 15/42
The address of the corresponding software module must be added now. For WinCan you
will need the module address 6428:
Type this module address into the corresponding value field and click on the button Add
to save the value. The new address appears in the left part of the window as a new item
in the folder tree:

Page 27/42
9.1 System requirements
SERVER
 Windows Server 2008/2003
 ORACLE Server
CLIENT
 Windows 7/VISTA, SP1; Windows XP, SP3
 ORACLE Client, version 10G or higher
 WinCan8, version 8.25.0.XXXX or higher
9.2 Installing the software for ORACLE databases
 The ORACLE Server software must be installed by a professional server administrator.
In case of any troubles please refer to the ORACLE Server installation documentation.
 Download the software package Oracle XE Express Client (version 10g) from the website www.oracle.com.
 Install the package OracleXEClient.exe on the PC which you want to access the oracle
database from.
9.3 Set up a WinCan user account
To use the ORACLE database with WinCan8 you need at least 1 user account with administrator rights on the oracle server:
 Create new database
 Add records
 Delete records
 Change records
If you don’t want ALL users to have full control on the database you can set up different
accounts on the server as shown in the following example:
User 1: WinCan8_Admin
Create new database
Add new record
Delete record
Change record
User 2: WinCan8_User
Create new database
Add new record
Delete record
Change record
IMPORTANT:
When creating user accounts always add the UNC path of the server hard drive containing the data (e.g. "\\server\projects") in order the users will be able to access them.
Page 28/42
9.4 Adding an existing ORACLE project
In an ORACLE database environment the professional database administrator is usually
the ONLY one that creates NEW databases. The users connect directly to these databases
to add them to the project list of the WinCan8 Project Manager:
Type = ORACLE Server
SID = TNS string
USERNAME = Database name
PASSWORD = Database name
IMPORTANT:
Always write the whole Oracle TNS string into the field SID. The string can be found in
the file tnsnames.ora located in the ORACLE installation folder. The example below is giving you an idea how such a TNS string may look like:
(DESCRIPTION=
(_LIST=((PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=)(PORT=1521)))
(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=)(SERVER=DEDICATED))))
Page 29/42
Result: Structured Workflow
10 Result: Structured Workflow
Once a central server database (MS-SQL or ORACLE) has been established by the server
administrator all the CLIENT PC within the same network domain will be able to access it
via WinCan8. Thus data integrity is guaranteed: Each record updated during a pipe
inspection job must be merged into the central database and is ready for further data
processing done by other users.
The model below is showing the most important jobs that are running in a centralized
way:
 Filtering:
Pipe data can be filtered in WinCan, exported as separate WinCan projects and distributed to the operators in the TV-trucks.
 Merging:
Once the pipe sections have been (re)inspected from the TV-truck the data are transmitted to the staff in the office where they will have to be merged with the WinCan
replicator into the central database.
 Printing:
In case of immediate use of certain pipe data you may search them in the central database and print the data directly via the WinCan Docu-Center or send them as a PDF
file via e-mail.
 Exporting:
As an alternative to printing the data provided by the central database can also be distributed and burnt directly on DVD or exported in a special file format (TXT, XML,
MDB).

11.1 Windows 7: System Administrator
During the first installation of Windows 7/VISTA you will have to assign yourself an administrator account to finish the installation procedure properly. However this administrator is NOT the system administrator. Only the latter one has got all the rights to access
certain system components used during software installation. Proceed as follows to activate this system administrator:
 Right click on the desktop icon Computer and select the menu command Manage:
 Open the subfolder USERS in the category Local Users and Groups. Right click on the
User named as Administrator (system administrator) and select the command Properties:
DEACTIVATE the option Account is
disabled in this panel (so the account will be enabled!)
Page 31/42
Appendix
 Set a password for further LOGIN as system administrator and confirm this one.
 Remove the default user that had to be defined during the installation of Windows
from the group of administrators.
 Close all the dialogue boxes and restart your PC.
 It is possible from now to log in as system administrator.
You must log in as system administrator to install
WinCan8 as well as all the other additional software modules!
After the activation of the system administrator on a CLIENT-PC you must remove this
computer temporarily from the domain before installing WinCan8. Otherwise the system
administrator might in some cases be affected by restrictions defined by the domain controller and WinCan8 will NOT be installed properly!
If WinCan8 has NOT been installed as system administrator Windows 7/VISTA will block
certain events in the WinCan8 application when launching/using the software for the first
time. Proceed as follows to repair this:
 Activate the system administrator
 Browse to the folder C:\Users\[Current User]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore.
 Look for a program folder named as \WinCan v8 or for WinCan related files that are
automatically put in this VirtualStore subfolder after a first launch of WinCan8.
 Delete any WinCan8 related entry in the subfolder VirtualStore OR rename it (e.g.
WinCan v8_OLD). Finally restart your PC.
 Log in as system administrator and install WinCan8 again. Device drivers must first be
completely uninstalled and then reinstalled.

Configuring SQL Server 2005 Express Edition
Next, we will make some configurations in the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. We will
make all these settings in the SQL Server Configuration Manager which can be launched
as follows. Make sure that there is a remote connection to SQL Server 2005:
1. Select the category Protocols for SQLExpress on the left.
2. Right click on TCP/IP and select Enable:
SQL Server 2005 Express Edition is using dynamic ports per default. To prevent blocking
of these ports during a restart of the PC we have to reconfigure the SQL Server in order
to use static ports in the future.
1. Select SQL Server 2005 Network Configuration  Protocols for SQLExpress
2. Doubleclick on TCP/IP
3. In the tab Protocol make sure that Listen All is set to Yes.
Select the tab IP Addresses go to the type category IPAll and type a free port number into the field TCP Port. If this is the only instance of SQL Server on the current PC use the
standard SQL port 1433. If you use another port please mind that you will need to replace the value at other places accordingly.

11.5 Initialisation of databases
When creating projects directly from the WinCan8 application that are based on MS ACCESS the corresponding tables are created and saved automatically in the project database whereas MS-SQL or ORACLE databases are empty at the beginning.
In order the users are able to access a database structure based on MS-SQL or ORACLE
this one must be initialised first by a professional server administrator.
1. Import the initialisation scripts listed below into the server database:
 For MS-SQL: C:\Program Files\WinCan v8\WinCan\Scripts\create_wincan.sql
 For ORACLE: C:\Program Files\WinCan v8\WinCan\Scripts\create_wincan_oracle.sql
These scripts will create all the tables that WinCan8 needs for data entry
2. Open the project table P_T in the server database and add the fields listed below:
 P_Path
 P_Name
 P_Language
 P_DefTemplateSection
 P_DefCatalogSection
 P_DefTemplateSat
 P_DefCatalogSat
 P_DefTemplateMH
 P_DefCatalogMH
