SURFCAM Tech Tip

Sharing your Post Processor Files other users

If you have more than one Seat of SURFCAM and you do not want to maintain multiple Post Processor files, you can place these files on your Server allowing all SURFCAM Seats to access the same files.

Mpost Template Files

Edit your ..\SURFCAM\V5\Mpost\Post.ini file, change the Format path to your Network location.

POST.INI DEFAULT FILE
[MPOST]
Format C:\Program Files\SURFCAM\POSTLIB\PostForm.m
[LPOST]
Format C:\Program Files\SURFCAM\POSTLIB\PostForm.l
[EPOST]
Format C:\Program Files\SURFCAM\POSTLIB\PostForm.e

EXAMPLE - Network location is S Drive, SURFCAMPost Folder ---
[MPOST]
Format S:\SURFCAMPost\PostForm.m

Move or Copy your ..\SURFCAM\Postlib\Postform.* files to your S:\SURFCAMPost folder

Spost Template Files

Edit your ..\SURFCAM\V5\Spost\Config.tbl file, change the UNC$LIBRARY path to your Network location.

CONFIG.TBL DEFAULT FILE
UNC$SYSTEM = C:\Program Files\SURFCAM\V5\SPOST\
UNC$LIBRARY = C:\Program Files\SURFCAM\POSTLIB\SPOST\
UNC$CANON = C:\Program Files\SURFCAM\POSTLIB\SPOST\M_IMAGE\
UNC$SCRATCH = C:\Program Files\SURFCAM\POSTLIB\
UNC$OUTPUT = C:\Program Files\SURFCAM\SCPRT\
