Workaround for “No Auto-Detection of Cassettes”
1 Problem
Cassette auto-detection does not work any more after Service Pack 5 has been installed on the
PRID station. This happens only if the PC has a Pentium III processor inside.
2 Reason
The current Java runtime version (classes.jar) has problems when run together with Service
Pack 5 and Pentium III processors.
3 Workaround
There are two workarounds responding to that problem.
Perform only one of the following actions:
Copying the file “classes.jar”
3.1
Change the Target line in the Properties Window
3.2
3.1 Copying the file “classes.jar”
Note: The file classes.jar can be downloaded from the mailbox.
Copy the file “classes.jar” to the directory “c:\prid”:
<copy A:\classes.jar C:\prid\classes.jar>
Restart the program.

After the adjustment, the start-up command in the Target-line should look as follows:
C:\prid\java\bin\jre.exe -mx40m -cp .\classes.jar;.\dicom.jar prid
DD+DIS269.99E
With this setting the system should work properly.
The only disadvantage is that, whenever the PRID application is started, a DOS-window
appears on the screen as well. This DOS-window remains on the screen, but the Preview- and
the ID-window are in the foreground. So, the Customer usually has no idea that the DOSwindow is there. Only if both windows (Preview and ID) are minimised, the DOS-window can be
seen.
As soon as PRID is closed, the DOS-window disappears from the screen.
4 Solution
The problem will be solved in the next release of PRID software.
