Assign Scripts to buttons during Installation

I recently started to support a customer who has tiara installed over a number of workstations (mainly v8, some v8.1). They have developed hundreds of custom scripts (AUT mainly, but also some VBS), and at the present time, the installation process is quite painful, as I install Diadem, copy on hundreds of scripts manually configure each workstations for the memory settings, etc. of ODBC, then, assign scripts mmost used to different buttons.

I'm very experienced at writing installers usign tools such as sage and SMS Installer script, is anyway that Diadem v8.x allows me to automate the Setup process?

Almost all the settings seem to reside in the desktop.ddd file, but as it's binary I don't want to try to edit it directly.

Most of the PC I support is on the lease and should be replaced in the next few weeks, so I prefer an automated solution.

Any advice gratefully received.

Hello Onkar!

I'll try to give you some answers.

  • Desktop (DDD) file contains the basic parameters DIAdem. It is a text file, but should not be patched. Try to implement one in suit wich DIAdem all users.
  • The parameters of the user - assignment of button/script is one of it - is stored in a separate file, usually named "userpar.par". The name is stored in the DDD and you can change it in DIAdem. You can do a fresh install of tiara with all your button assignments, then copy the userpar.par file in the installation repository you. You must copy this file on new installations, but never on the current because all the unique user specific settings will be lost.
  • Scripts can be stored on a generally shared network drive. With AUT isn't the best approach because DIAdem will store the compiled version (AUC) to the same place that will be a bottleneck. You can put them next to the Desktop.DDD and UserPar.PAR in a self-made installer, which you can run after a fresh TIARA has been installed.

I hope this helps a little. Do not hesitate to ask if something is not clear to you.

  • Satellite 100-787: pilot controls - language truncated during installation

    Although I downloaded the English version of the driver controls, I had a language truncated during installation. It seems to have installed fine because the game before buttons work well with Media Player but I can't handle his options since the language is incomprehensible.

    Currently, it controls only MediaPlayer but it seems to me there is a way to include the other player. Volume wheel shows nothing on the screen display. How to solve this problem of language interface and how to include other players in controls and volume wheel?

  • WU is blocked during installation of updates - but does not freeze

    Hello

    I recently installed Windows 7 Professional on my new PC. It worked well; After that, I installed mainboard and video drivers and then some games.

    Then I noticed that I was not activated Windows Update during installation, so I started the update manually. Download worked, but the installer is stuck to the update 10/59. I then tried to cancel the update (the "Cancel" button was clickable, then the program do not freeze) but nothing happened. So I rebooted the computer...

    I tried to update again, but WU is now stuck at 8/59. I don't know what to do; There is no error message or anything. The only way to cancel the update is by restarting the PC.

    FYI: I waited like 2 or 3 hours, but WU did not progress.

    Thank you very much for the help!

  • The steps of las in the installation of Adobe Acrobat Pro DC process I get a window with the message: "error during installation" "get support from software manufacturer" (which is written in Spanish)

    My computer is a Macbook Pro of 4 core (i7) with the OS X Yosemite system.

    The problem: when I try to install Adobe Acrobat (perpetual license) the final stages of the process I get a notice about an error during installation and advise him that I have to contact the software manufacturer.

    Anyway I can run the program and it seams to work in many aspects, but a problem, I started to work with her.

    Work problem: it's when I try to use the option (under File menu) "save under" it pops up a new window totally in white without box or numeric button. Then I can't do anything with this window, and therefore I can't save it as what it is.

    I have a few comments to solve this problem.

    I did try to solve this problem, it was to first uninstall and install again. But I don't have the problem with the option "Save as."

    The upgrade is not the 11.0.06, but it's an update. The upgrade is that you can buy if you had an earlier version of Acrobat (at least 9 AA). The upgrade is significantly lower than the price of the full product. With the upgrade you must also have the SN of the previous product available for installation. That's why I asked for the upgrade. Once you install AA XI, then go to 11.0.06 is a free update (updates are changes in the minor version and do quarterly or when there is a critical security problem).

    You can often resolve installations by running a repair. In the windows which is done either from help > repair or the control panel. I don't know the equivalent of the control panel in the Mac.

    In any case I am happy that you fixed it.
