Anzio

It is not uncommon for the host to generate a beep for certain events. Anzio Lite and AnzioWin both utilize the default sound settings in Windows. But what if you do not have speakers hooked up? You can go to Advanced Options and force Anzio to use the PC Speaker, rather than whatever default Windows has set. Check out our Sound Support page for more information. In early versions of AnzioWin and Anzio Lite, we added support for sound cards in those cases where there was not a PC speaker. In order to do this, we utilize some of the Windows Theme sounds.

Yes, we have AnzioWin and Anzio Lite running on many terminal servers around the marketplace. The only catch, similar to running from a file server (see above), is manually setting up shortcuts and making sure default files are referenced and read-only as necessary. As for entering a serial number/activation code for each workstation, this may not be necessary. We do have a method of accessing a global license entry - call for more information.

AnzioWin and Anzio Lite will run on Windows XP and later. However, we no longer provide support for running any version of Anzio on Windows XP. To run on Vista or Windows 7, 8, 10, or 11, or equivalent versions of Windows Server, we support version 16.3m or later.

Both AnzioWin and Anzio Lite are 32-bit Windows programs, but run fine on either 32-bit or 64-bit versions of the above Windows platforms.

Yes it can. In brief, you install Anzio on the file server and then set up shortcuts on the individual PCs which are sharing the file server's disk, to point at the Anzio software.

You can set up individual default files (if you do, reference them on the shortcut command line, e.g., "N:\Program Files (x86)\Anzio17\anzio32.exe" my.def) or let Anzio use its common default file name ("anziowin.def" for both AnzioWin and Anzio Lite), by just referencing the executable.

There are many things that control a connection for Anzio Lite and AnzioWin. This includes network devices, the host application, the host operating system, user login scripts, Microsoft Windows settings and more.

Anzio (meaning Anzio Lite or AnzioWin) normally requires only a small set of configurations to run, notably a) terminal type to emulate, b) communication method, and c) host name or IP address. When you start Anzio for the first time, it will ask you these things in this order. How should you answer?

Anzio uses a settings file that typically has a ".def" extension. The default name of the settings file is "anziowin.def" (even if you're using Anzio Lite). If you have reason to believe that your settings file has been overwritten or otherwise changed, the easiest way to resolve that problem is to rebuild the settings file.

As with mobile devices, there has not been much request for terminal emulation on Apple Macintosh operating system. Currently Anzio Lite and AnzioWin are Windows-only applications. However, we have had a fair number of users running Anzio Lite and AnzioWin under various Windows emulation products for the Mac.
