With semAPI 2.0 and later, the interface has been known to have problems working when the user logs off of a Windows machine. After a user logs off, the semAPI device driver stops running and our interface loses the connection to the ICI. To fix this problem, the semAPI device driver must be installed as a service. Follow the steps below:
Custom install the semAPI and install the DEVICE files.
If the interface reports “Invalid security device present,” the user string or software key has not been entered or is incorrect. The software key is a long, alpha-numeric string and the user string is usually “LICENSE01.” Both of these strings are furnished by Bailey. The strings need to be entered in three places. The software key needs to be entered into the LICENTRY utility. However, the user string needs to be entered in BOTH the LICENTRY and the ICICONF utility. Without correct user/software key strings entered, neither the talk90 program nor the interface will be able to connect to the ICI.
A string NameID is pre-pended to error messages written to the message log. Name is a non-configurable identifier that is no longer than 9 characters. ID is a configurable identifier that is no longer than 9 characters and is specified using the /id parameter on the startup command line.
