Introduction

i!-DatabasePlus

i!-Database Plus

™

is an application that allows you to connect a NetLinx

™

Master to a server or

PC database. The kit consists of two files:

NetLinxDBInclude.asp

: A server database script designed to run on Microsoft web

servers.

NetLinxDBInclude.axi

: Includes various functions to help you integrate to a server

database script.

The two files work together to allow NetLinx to access any ODBC database that the server can

connect to.

These two files connect to each other using all of the following:

Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP): the base protocol to which CGI and XML are then

added.

Common Gateway Interface (CGI): used by the NetlinxDBInclude.axi file to make

database requests to the NetlinxDBInclude.asp file.

Extensible Markup Language (XML)

DBWizard

DBWizard

™

is an application that helps you generate NetLinx code to access a PC database. The

NetLinx Master can read and write to the database via a web server connection. DBWizard helps

generate the SQL and NetLinx code needed to read and write to the database.

To access a database using NetLinx, you will need the following:

A PC running a Microsoft Window

operating system such as Windows 95

Window 98

, Windows NT 4.0

Workstation, Windows NT Server

, Windows 2000

Workstation or Windows 2000

Server.

A Web server. You can use Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) or Microsoft

Personal Web Server (PWS); either is available for all operating systems listed above.

A NetLinx Master with Ethernet

Supported Operating Systems

Windows 95/98 (with at least 48 MB of installed memory)

Windows NT 4.0 Workstation or Server (service pack 6 B or greater, with at least 64 MB

of installed memory)

Windows 2000 Professional or Server (running on a Pentium 233 MHz processor

(minimum requirement); 300 MHz or faster recommended, with 96 MB of installed

memory.)
