Installation of Document Reader Local Web Service

Document Reader Web Service allows you to work with the SDK and control device operation via a web service. If you need to use Regula devices with web-based solutions, it is the easiest and most recommended method of integration.

Choose the type of operating system:

Windows x86 Windows x64
    1. Log in to the system as the administrator.
    2. Before updating the service, make sure that the Document Reader application has not been launched by any user. If necessary, it can be closed through the task manager.
    3. Make sure, that no process or application is using the selected port (8080 or 443 by default).
    4. Download the service for controlling reader operation at:
      Document Reader Web Service full package - it contains all required prerequisites and the SDK for a clean installation from scratch.
      Document Reader Web Service without prerequisites - it contains only the installer for updating the already installed service. The file should be placed in the folder containing the previously downloaded prerequisites.
    5. Unpack and run the installation package.  

      ATTENTION

      It is important that the package is unpacked before installation!
