# DiaLog Configuration

Once StreamLog is installed on your system, DiaLog requires configuring to interact with the software. To do this, a dedicated configuration file supplied with StreamLog must be assigned:

“StreamLog.ssf”

The StreamLog configuration file must be placed within the parent DiaLog installation directory. This is arbitrary:

“C:\Program Files\Influx Technology”

This method is only required for the initial assigning of a ‘. SSF’ file. This configures DiaLog to allow access to the StreamLog features, and in future, all management of the configuration files can be performed within the StreamLog settings window in DiaLog. This is accessed using the StreamLog Tab as shown below:

Once the ‘Surefleet.ssf’ file is in place, the StreamLog Settings button will show you details of the Server and Database that you are connecting to as follows:

A new configuration file is assigned to DiaLog using the ‘Add Security StreamLog file’ toolbar icon at the top of the window.

Once a file has been selected, it is listed in the ‘Security files’ panel location. Multiple files can be assigned to an installation of DiaLog simultaneously. The highlighted file will be the one used by DiaLog to access StreamLog.

#### WARNING:

* Once DiaLog has been configured using a ‘.SSF’ file, the GPRS settings in the Rebel must be updated to align the Rebel with the Server database.
