Sentinel Admin Control Center

The Sentinel Admin Control Center is automatically installed with the license manager. The Admin Control Center is used for dongle updates and diagnosis in case of any problems.

Activate .v2c update on dongle

An update of the dongle is required when a single or several CadnaA options, further standards, or objects shall be enabled. In those cases you will receive a .v2c file („vendor-to-customer“) from DataKustik. Using this file, the update is activated on the dongle.

Proceed as follows:

  • Quit all processes (i.e. main dialogs) of CadnaA on your PC.
  • Ensure that the dongle to be updated is attached to a free USB-port of the PC presently in use. In order to update a network dongle detach it from the server-PC and attach it to the PC presently in use.

The update can either be activated via the Admin Control Center or the DataKustik Launcher:

Update via Admin Control Center

  • Start the Admin Control Center either via
    • the start up menu at Program Files\Datakustik\AdminControlCenter,
    • the installation directory at Program Files\Datakustik\CadnaA64\AdminControlCenter or
    • entering localhost:1947 to any web browser.
  • Click in the side menu „Update/Attach“.
  • Select the .v2c-file sent by DataKustik using the button „Select File...“.
  • When the file has been selected click on button „Apply File“ in order to activate the Update.

Update viaDataKustik Launcher

  • Install and start the DataKustik Launcher available at www.datakustik.com.
  • Click the button „Update dongle“
  • Select the .v2c file and click „Open“ to update the dongle.
