What
Computer specification is recommended for RTTESS ?
RTTESS
is not a large program and most of the minimum requirement
are governed by those needed for the IQfeed software. Click
here for the IQfeed specification.
Operating
System
TESS
is only supported on a 'Windows' computer running XP or
VISTA or Windows 7.
(Win95, Win98, WinME, WinNT are not supported)
Some
MACs make use of a 'Windows' environment in which we believe
that TESS will run however it is not tested or supported.
We do have clients successfully running TESS in this way.
Windows
2000: We have clients using RTTESS successfully on this
platform. The things to note here are security levels with
Firewall etc. Permissions need to be set to allow RTTESS
to communicate with the IQFeed software and the Internet
to received data.
TESS
is not designed to run on a PDA or USB Flash Drive.
Processor
Pentium
Processor 2GHz
The faster the better.
RTTESS will probably run on a lot slower - it will just
run slower.
Memory
500Mb Ram (1Gb recommended)
Internet
Connection
High Speed connection (Broadband)
IQ feed recommends minimum 500Kps min.
Dial up can work but it can be very slow and some data can
get missed, which can have an effect on the data and results.
Mobile Internet connections do also work but one needs to
be aware of lower signal levels which can result in some
data getting missed.
Wireless Internet connections can cause data loss issues.
If data loss is experienced try using a wired connections
to establish if the wireless is causing it.
Screen
The bigger the better - (Minimum resolution 1024 x 768)
Hard
disk Space
RTTESS does not store historical data on the disk so there
are no significant requirements for hard disk space apart
from having enough to keep the computer smoothly.
