Dev:Install or update SerialDeviceIntegrationService

This is a windows service running on a computer to which a device with serial interface is connected. It listens to data from the device all the time and, after receiving it places it into a preconfigured folder. From that point on, the Device Data Uploader service uploads the data to Kordeus server from where it can be used in the Kordeus app.

Service installation is very straightforward, essentially clicking on the .msi installer file. Updating the services works the same, except the already running service has to be turned off.

1. Start -> Dienste -> Right click -> Als Administrator ausführen
2. Find SerialDeviceIntegrationService and click beenden.
3. After the service has been installed or updated, SerialDeviceIntegrationServiceSetup.exe.config needs to be configured or updated.
