Bar|Scan Software
Bar|Scan®
is a complete bar code asset management system that provides specialized
barcoding software designed to meet a company's enterprise-wide asset
information needs.
Bar|Scan uses the accuracy of bar codes
and powerful portable bar code readers to more accurately track your computers,
equipment, furniture, and other resources in less time than a manual
inventory.
Accounting, Facilities, MIS, and
Purchasing departments can share Bar|Scan asset information on a network-wide
basis resulting in better communication without duplicating efforts.
Flexibility is the key to Bar|Scan. It works equally well in a warehouse or
office environment.
Bar|Scan Smart Client
Software
Combining web deployment with local computing
Using Microsoft ClickOnce deployment
technology, the Bar|Scan Smart Client can be installed throughout your
environment for quick access to your Bar|Scan assets.
Once installed, users can browse, sort,
add, edit or print assets. Filters can be assigned by user password so that
only assets in their area of responsibility are accessible.

Bar|Scan SmartClient recommended
minimum system requirements:
SERVER:
Supported Server Operating Systems:
- Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (32 bit only)
Must allow
installation of:
- Microsoft Internet Information Services
- Microsoft .NET 3.0
Special
Considerations:
- All PC hosted BarScan applications and components are 32 bit. This includes the standard PC application, the Smart Client server and the Smart Client workstation.
- BarScan and its components will run on 64 bit versions of Windows. However, this is within the Windows WOW64 x86 emulator. This emulator is part of Windows and does not have to be explicitly enabled. It ‘just works’. There are some conditions and exceptions:
- The BarScan Smart Client server portion will not run ( even in 32 bit compatibility mode) on Windows Server 2003 64 bit.
- The BarScan Smart Client server portion requires explicit assignment of a 32 bit Application Pool within IIS (Internet Information Services) on 64 bit versions.
CLIENT:
Supported Workstation:
- Windows XP Service Pack 2
- Windows Vista Business or Ultimate
- Supported Browsers: Internet Explorer 7.0
Other
requirements:
Disk Storage: You will require
approximately 3.0MB of storage for every 1,000 assets you track -- 10,000
assets would require 30MB disk space. The Bar|Scan Application can require up
to an additional 100MB of hard disk space.
There may be other requirements, please
see the latest Bar|Scan documentation.
Bar|Scan, Inc. no longer supports the use
of its products on operating systems that have been retired by Microsoft. See
Microsoft for their official list. Bar|Scan may or may not run on these retired
systems but we cannot provide technical support for Bar|Scan running on these
operating systems. Additionally, these include, but are not limited to, Windows
98, Windows ME and Windows NT. Note especially that Windows NT Terminal server
is not supported.
Please note that Microsoft retired both
mainstream and extended support of Windows NT as of June 2004. We highly
recommend that you use a more recent version, such as Windows XP. However, for
the convenience of our customers we still include the legacy service packs for
Windows NT 4. |
