Modified on Tue, 25 Oct 2016 15:11 by Kevin Ricciardo — Categorized as: FAQ
In settings where there are multiple PCs connecting to one centralize server there will be the need to install multiple client tiers. This is easily done on any Windows PC compatible with CAREWare and Windows user accounts that have the permissions to install applications.
To complete the client tier installation you will need to download the client tier setup file that is found in the full setup file for CAREWare available on the
HRSA CAREWare
website.
Download the full setup file from the HRSA CAREWare website
Extract the full setup file to the default location C:\CW_Setup
Go to the C:\CW_Setup directory using Windows Explorer
Double click on the RWCAREWareClientTierSetup.msi file. If you are prompted by a pop up window asking 'The publisher could not be verified. Are you sure you want to run this software?' click “Run”.
Click “Next”, check “Everyone” for the program to be accessed by everyone who uses this computer or “Just Me” for the program to be accessed by only the current user logged into the computer. Click “Next”.
Click “Next” again, read the End User License Agreement and select “I Agree” if you do. Click “Next” again.
Click “Close” when installation is completed.
Once the installation of the client tier is complete the user will need to setup the client tier in order to connect to the correct central server.
