Détails Techniques
Fonctions de base

Configuration requise
Systèmes d’exploitation (64 bits) :
Configuration matérielle minimale requise :
Recommandation pour l’utilisation d’une seule imprimante :
Recommandation pour l’utilisation d’imprimantes multiples :
Installation et fonctionnement :
Port USB pour dongle USB requis; Adaptateur LAN et connexion TCP/IP requis pour l'accès réseau. Les licences avec soft key nécessitent une connexion Internet (le logiciel doit se connecter au serveur de licences environ une fois par jour).Interfaces prises en charge (en fonction des imprimantes, des appareils de mesure et des traceurs de découpe utilisés) :
Ethernet, TCP/IP, USB, FireWireUtilisation dans des environnements virtualisés :
Licences avec soft key :
Les licences avec soft key n'autorisent pas le fonctionnement de ColorGATE sur des machines virtuelles.
Licences avec USB key :
Si la solution de virtualisation prend en charge la connectivité USB, le logiciel ColorGATE devrait fonctionner avec des licences avec USB key. Veuillez toutefois noter que ColorGATE ne peut proposer
d'assistance en cas de problèmes survenant dans le contexte de la solution de virtualisation. Des restrictions peuvent s'appliquer si des imprimantes, appareils de mesure ou traceurs de découpe sont connectés via USB. En outre, les exigences de configuration matérielle doivent exclusivement être dédiées à la machine virtuelle pour garantir des performances de fonctionnement optimales du logiciel. Pour ces raisons, nous recommandons d'utiliser des environnements virtualisés uniquement à des fins de test.
