Installing CollaboRhythm.Workstation

You can either download the latest CollaboRhythm.Workstation installer or build it yourself from source. For more information on getting and building the source, see Preparing Your Machine for CollaboRhythm Development. The instructions below are for downloading and installing the latest pre-build version of CollaboRhythm.

Pre-Requisites:

• A computer running Mac OS X or Windows 7 or some other OS that supports the latest version of Adobe AIR. At the time of this writing (January 2012) Adobe AIR 3.1 is required.
• An internet connection (currently, CollaboRhythm requires a live connection to run)

Instructions:

1. Download Adobe AIR from http://get.adobe.com/air/ and install it.

2. Download the latest version of CollaboRhythm.Workstation from https://github.com/newmediamedicine/CollaboRhythm/downloads

3. Run the CollaboRhythm.Workstation AIR installer. Note that CollaboRhythm.Workstation may run after installing but is likely to require modified settings to work correctly. Exit CollaboRhythm.Workstation if it runs by closing the window or pressing the Esc key.

4. Locate the application storage folder for CollaboRhythm. On Widows, use the following path:

   • %APPDATA%\CollaboRhythm.Workstation\Local Store\

5. Create a file named settings.xml.

6. Edit the settings.xml and specify valid settings as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<settings xmlns="http://collaborhythm.org/application/settings"\>
<mode>clinician</mode>
<indivoServerBaseURL>http://your.indivo.server:port </indivoServerBaseURL>
<username>your-username</username>
<password>your-password</password>
<rtmpBaseURI>rtmp://your.collaboration.server</rtmpBaseURI>
<useFileTarget>true</useFileTarget>
<useTraceTarget>true</useTraceTarget>
<useSyslogTarget>true</useSyslogTarget>
<syslogServerIpAddress>your.syslog.server</syslogServerIpAddress>
<debuggingToolsEnabled>false</debuggingToolsEnabled>
<useSingleScreen>true</useSingleScreen>
<!--
useSingleScreen - If no valid windowSettings.xml file exists or resetWindowSettings = true, then force the app to only use a single screen (one window)
resetWindowSettings - Ignore the windowSettings.xml and reset the position/size of all windows
<useSingleScreen>true</useSingleScreen>
<resetWindowSettings>true</resetWindowSettings>
targetDate can be used for a demo to change the current date
<targetDate>2011-08-13T10:40:00-5:00</targetDate>
-->
</settings>

7. Save your changes.

8. Run CollaboRhythm.Workstation again.
