TeroTech 2.0

INTRODUCTION

TeroTech is a maintenance management program written
to assist in the recording issuing and tracking of
random and routine maintenance tasks carried out by
maintenance crews working in any size of industry.

TeroTech maintains an asset register against which
these maintenance tasks can be recorded.

A simple email feature is provides as is a knowledge
base that may be used as a repository for usefull
information of a general nature.


INSTALATION

TeroTech has its own installation routine, just run
setup.exe

TeroTech 2.0 is written using Visual Basic so to run 
TeroTech some VB files have to exist on in your 
Windows\System directory. The setup routine will check 
for these files and if they are not there or are older 
versions it will install the necessary files.

Once all the files have been uncompressed and copied 
into the desired directories you will be given the 
option of creating a program group, this is the 
preferred option.

On a machine with no Visual Basic files TeroTech will 
require approximately 2.1Mbytes of hard disk space. 
This consists of just over 1.4Mbytes of system files 
and just over 670kbytes of application files.

The application will run on a 386 machine running 
Windows 3.1 or better but can tend to be rather slow. A 
realistic minimum is probably a 486dx 33Mhz (This is 
what the application was written on).

Sample data is included with the application and this 
will be loaded by default (there is an alternative sample
database called highways which may be selected under 'change
database' in Admin).

Initial access to the higher access profiles (access 
profiles are covered in the on line help) can be gained 
using ‘M56868’ as the user ID and 'uiop' as the password.
This will give you access to ‘System Admin’ where you can
set up your own users with appropriate access profiles.

Some user names to try are as follows

	Name		User ID		Password

	Phill Hellewell	m56868		uiop
	Dave Greenfield	00004		yqjdmf
	Paul Lowe	f80201		mavic
	Brian Bateman	f80095		arabs
	Steve Molnar	f86065		tetra
	Mick Maher	f10077		116800
	Ian Macdonald	m57018		marie


SHAREWARE

TeroTech is released as shareware, it is not free and its
continued use after the evaluation period requires registration
with the author. Registartion details can be found from the
registration prompt or in the Help file.

The shareware version of TeroTech is fully functional and will
remain so indefinately. However there is an arbitrary evaluation
period of 90 days (this is longer than for most shareware programs
and reflects the nature of the programs use). During this period
there is one brief reminder of the need to register on start up.
After the evaluation period has expired a nag prompt is displayed
every time a random or routine job is logged on the system.

Further all printed output has "Unregistered Version" printed in
the top left of the Header, this is replaced with your company
name when registered.
