XPressEntry Installation Prerequisites

List of XPressEntry Machine Prerequisites: #

Windows 10/Windows Server 2016 or newer, >= 8GB RAM and 4 CPU Cores
To be safe, 20GB free disk space for very large installations.

XPressEntry installer and license file
.NET Framework 4.7.2
Windows Firewall ports 30000(HTTP)/30001(HTTPS preferred) opened for the XPressEntryService executable. This is needed for the handheld devices to communicate with the server. These are programmable if required.
XPressEntry installer and license file. Administrator rights are required for installation.
A domain service account for the XPressEntry Service.

At the time of install, sufficient IT support is required(basically, a database and server admin available for installation and setup)

Database:

Recommended- SQL Server 2014 or Newer. The SQL Server instance must be installed on the network or installed locally on the server.  If full SQL Server is not available, SQL Server Express will work.  XPressEntry will create a database on this existing instance after installation of the XPressEntry Application.  XPressEntry does NOT come with a SQL Server Express installer.

SQLite is no longer support by XPressEntry Server.

Mobile Device Prerequisites #

Remote Android Viewer:

There are a number of remote viewer applications for android.  Our favorite is Vysor, which allows you to display your screen over USB (but contains ads).  If the devices have internet access, TeamViewer and AnyDesk will work as well, and their apps are available for download on the play store.  Some type of remote viewer is encouraged to have installed at the time of a remote install, to allow the installer to see your handheld device’s screen.
