The Ease of Synergy SPC Software Setup Provides Rapid Implementation

Synergy SPC Software Setup and Implementation

Software Install (Estimated time: 15-20 min.)
With Synergy SPC software you have the option to install on a server or locally on workstations. If the software is installed on the server, just simply create a shortcut to the applicable exe file(s). No client
install is required. Since the software is a flat file system, minimal if any IT support will be needed. To install the software simply place the CD into the workstation and follow the setup screens.

File Organization

The first thing to consider before creating any files is how to best organize your data files for easy access.
You can create as many folders and subfolders needed to facilitate navigation by operators to locate data
files.
