Step by step tutorial for Kofax Communication Server Core component TCOSS

Issue

As a beginner working with the Kofax Communication Server I would like to have a step-by-step guide explaining

• the basic concepts of the Kofax Communication Server (KCS) system and
• the necessary steps how to install and configure the System

Solution

The attached PDF file KCS_Core_TCOSS.pdf provides a step-by-step tutorial for the basic installation of the Kofax Communication Server core component (TCOSS).
The TCOSS component...

• uses the KCS File structure as message store
• handles the message routing
• manages the FAX channels, which are configured using the WCONFIG program

Please keep in mind, that this tutorial is only addressing the installation of a stand-alone system, it does not cover the installation steps for fault tolerant tandem systems.
The following topics are covered in this installation guide:

• KCS Core installation
  • Server Setup
  • TCOSS Installation
  • KCS File structure configuration
• WConfig
  • WConfig shortcut
• KCS Monitor
  • Starting KCS Services from KCS Monitor
  • KCS Monitor Shortcut
• KCS Licensing
  • CPU Number
  • Enabling Test Licenses
