Installing StackCaptioning

StackCaptioning must have Delta Web Platform 2.1.3 and Delta Web Service 2.4.16 already installed.

To find your version of Delta Web Service, go to the server IP in your web browser, and click Help. If you are uncertain, just install these first, or contact support@7thsense.one.

If you need to see your Delta Web Platform version, it is only visible from the Windows registry. If you are unfamiliar with this area, just call us. The Registry setting is in: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\DeltaWebPlatform

Copy the required software elements (StackCaptioning Manager and StackCaptioning Trigger) onto the required PC or Servers, and run the .exe files. StackCaptioning Trigger must be on each server, StackCaptioning Manager can be on a server, or on a control PC, from where you will sync the display devices.

Note: StackCaptioning Trigger must be installed as Administrator, and run as Administrator on Startup.

StackCaptioning Trigger will be added to the system’s start-up sequence, and when run the first time, will ask for registration.
