Interactive Realtime is generally used on a portable or stand-alone computer, as opposed to a network workstation. Thus, we have shipped network systems with Realtime access turned off.

In the event that you want Summation Realtime on your network workstation, follow the steps below:

Steps:

1. After a successful installation, Exit/close Summation and (using Windows Explorer) go to your Summation Program File directory.
   
   
2. Open the file SWADMIN.INI in Notepad
   
   
3. Add the following line below the [Admin] section:
   
   EnableRealTime=1
   Example:
   [Admin]
   ProgDir=C:\SW52\
   RootDir=C:\Blaze\
   EnableRealTime=1
   
   
4. Save your changes and close the file.
   
   At this point you will need to download and choose to save the file (dcsink.dll) into your Windows/system folder if you are running a Win 95/98 operation system or into your WINNT/System32 directory.
   
   Re-open Summation and verify Realtime activation by going to Help --> Module Activation --> Other. In the menu that appears, Realtime should now be checked.
