For establishing a network connection to a remote computer within an MICROS Retail OSCAR POS multi-installation via a modem or ISDN, you have to configure a dial-up connection in Windows and install and configure the Remote Access Service (RAS).
The description of the configuration of the RAS SERVER and the dial-up connection can be found in the following documentations:
Note:
The configuration of a dial-up with the
corresponding components of the RAS service has to be carried out on every
system unit – on both the central and the branch computers.
In an MICROS Retail OSCAR POS multi-installation, the RAS service has to be configured and started only on the branch computers. On the central computer, only the dial-up network with the corresponding telephone book entries has to be configured to enable the functions "update installation" and "get statistics" to be carried out.
When the RAS service is installed, the RAS setup will be started automatically. If RAS has already been installed, a RAS-compatible device (modem or ISDN adapter) can be embedded via Control Panel -> Network -> Services -> Properties of RAS, button Add. If a modem has not been installed yet, it will be added first, a corresponding window will appear automatically.
