Famous V6 is a true Client/Server application. Network features such as servers, cabling, hubs, topology and clients all affect overall system performance. Networks configured for simple “file and printer sharing” are frequently inadequate as true Client/Server platforms. A qualified network engineer should configure your network in order for you to reap the full benefits of Famous Software. The following recommendations assume that the Famous Database Server is installed on a dedicated server running a typical Famous Software configuration and no other applications. You may require greater capacities and/or hardware speeds compatible with your transaction volume.
SERVER10 or fewer users
11 to 25 users
26 to 50 users *Domain Controller is OK. Windows Small Business Server is not supported. RAMFamous V6 requires adequate Server and Client RAM. Virtual memory is not recommended. Additional RAM may be required as the number of users and size of the Famous Database increases.DISK DRIVESFamous recommends utilizing SAS drives (Serial attached SCSI). Although SATA drives are adequate, the reliability and performance of SAS drives is preferred. The minimum disk space required for the Famous database is dependent upon numerous factors—volume of transactions, number of companies, etc. Our recommendation for most new installations is as follows:DRIVE CONFIGURATIONSNOTE: Of these 3 configurations, RAID 10 offers the fastest disk performanceCLIENT WORKSTATIONSINSTALLATION OF ORACLE UPDATESFamous V6 relies on the integrity and security of the Oracle database. We are a member of the Oracle Partner community, and are registered Oracle licensees. Once tested and approved, Oracle updates are automatically included in the Famous V6 releases you receive from us.REMOTE ACCESSFamous Support requires a native TCP/IP connection to the Famous database server to diagnose and resolve database related issues. This necessitates Windows Remote Access Service (RAS), configured to allow authorized, remote access to the Famous Database Server. The Famous account must be granted local administrative privileges. Once connected, we need to be able to perform any task that a local client workstation does, such as copying files and connecting to the Famous database. Third party applications such as PCAnywhere®, Terminal Services® (Remote Desktop), Citrix®, or VNC®, cannot be used.Microsoft provides the Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) which allows remote users to connect to a server via a modem or Internet connection. This is the preferred method for providing remote access. Some routers, firewalls, and VPN devices can also provide this service. These devices may be used providing they are compatible with delivered Microsoft client software and protocols. Famous cannot use connections that require proprietary client software. Some support is also provided using GoToAssist. PRINTINGPrinting is an important function. The variety of printer models grows daily. Not all printers or features are supported. Please contact Famous Software prior to purchasing any printer not specified below. If you are a Version 5 user converting to Version 6 please contact us prior to purchasing new printers.
Laser: Famous recommends HP LaserJet 1000, 2000, 3000 and 4000 series printers. Tag Printers: Datamax I-4208, Datamax I-4212, Sato M8400 RVE , Zebra 105SL, Zebra 105SE, Zebra ZM400, Zebra Z4M Plus, Zebra 110 XiIII Plus, Zebra 170 XiIII Plus and Printronix SL5204r (RFID) Please consult us about others. Impact Printers: A continuous form impact printer (dot matrix) is required to print preprinted continuous form documents. Famous recommends Okidata 3 and 5 series. Printer emulation must match printer. Unsupported Printers: We do not support inkjet printers or multifunction copier (mopier) devices. PALLET AND BIN TAG PRINTINGFamous V6 typically uses thermal transfer printers for inventory and RFID tags. Custom tag formats are available from Famous Custom Development Services. Compatible thermal transfer printers include many made by Intermec and Datamax. Contact us to confirm compatibility prior to purchasing tag printers.DOCUMENT PRINTINGFamous V6 prints on blank paper, stationery, preprinted laser forms, and preprinted continuous forms. Blank paper, stationery, and preprinted laser forms require a laser printer and can print multiple copies automatically. Preprinted continuous forms require an impact printer (dot matrix). The following table identifies document printing options and printer requirements. Contact us if you have questions.
CUSTOM FORMSFamous Software can supply you with both standard and custom forms. Standard forms are not preprinted with your company's information. Your computer adds it while printing. Multi-part, continuous forms require an impact printer. All forms conform to Famous Software print formats.
