Difference between "Maximum number of virtual stations" and "Max connections"

  • 1.  Difference between "Maximum number of virtual stations" and "Max connections"

    Posted 6 hours ago

    Hi,

    Rulerunner Server Registry has "Max connections" entry which is set to 500 by default.

    "Maximum number of virtual stations" on  Datacap Web Client or Datacap Navigator web client is set to 9999 by default.

    What is the difference between these configuration entries?

    Is the maximum number of sessions equal to the number set by "Max connections" which is 500?

    Or is it set by "Maximum number of virtual stations" which is 9999?

    We see these errors onsite. We'd like to know which of the above configuration entries is related.

    * Reference

    1. Maximum number of virtual stations

    "When you set up virtual stations, Datacap assigns a unique substation identifier to each login and allows multiple logins up to the Maximum number specified. If a user's session times outs and the Maximum number of virtual stations is greater than zero, the user can log in again without requiring support from the system administrator. When the Maximum number of virtual stations is set to zero or the maximum number of virtual stations is reached, the user's next attempt to log in will fail. The system administrator must clear the virtual stations for that station ID to allow the user to log in again."

    Users, groups, and stations administration

    2. Maximum Connection

    TMS registry keys control the number of maximum connections. Modify the value as you want.
    • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Datacap\TMS\InterThread
    • Max connections =dword:000001f4(500)
    • If needed you can increase this value, which is based on your system.
