Slim21 Home
 
SLIM21 software is a multi-user system, which works on the network of computers.SLIM21 database resides on a centralized computer and gets updated from other computers as per the access rights assigned to different users. Therefore for the smooth functioning of the system the physical network needs to be of high quality. Some of the networking standards which should be followed for SLIM21 to work properly are as follows:

  1. Each user should be located within 100 meters of the repeater.

  2. Network cables should be straight (no bends, twists and hanging), and running through proper ducting. The chances of signal attenuation are very high if these are not straight and taut.

  3. Crimping can be done in 2 ways - One to One Parallel or Cross Over. Both the methods if done correctly (not loose Crimping) is okay for safe functioning of SLIM21.

  4. Electrical wires should be separate from network cables, and not running in close proximity; if they are too close it results in signal distortion and subsequent data corruption.

  5. The Hub and Ethernet cards should be 10/100 MBPS and of standard make such as D-Link, LAN bit or Intel.

  6. For a network of more than 10 computers, the use of Switch in place of a Hub, will increase the speed of operation

  7. High quality cables and connectors need to be used - (eg - UTP CAT V of standard make - Lucent / IBM etc)

  8. Proper earthling must be ensured - where the neutral and earth should not have more than 3 volt difference.

  9. UPS for all the computers is highly recommended
