Notes

Note: Depending on the way the installation was performed, you may need to write the computer’s name instead of "LOCALHOST"

Notes

Note: Online functionality with Lock-S has been deprecated and is no longer officially supported.
While it may still function, we cannot guarantee this.

Once Lock-S opens:
  1. Go to System -> System Parameters and for IPMS (online functionality only), tick "Allow network function" checkbox.
  2. Open Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
  3. Depending on your installation, use the credentials to your database. Default: Server Name – LOCALHOSTKASDB ; Login – "sa" ; Password – "kas123"
  4. With Lock-S Closed, open the IPMS server installation folder (default path: C:Program Files (x86)LockPMSServer) and run the init.sql file, then click "Execute" at the top.
    • If this step fails, you may need to create a database. To do so: Right Click "Databases" and select "New Database". Type in "LockDB_PMS" in the name section, and click OK 

Installation Complete – User Guide

At this point you should be able to launch Lock-S and use it fully.
Please refer to the User Guide in order to learn about the program’s functionality.
