SCRAM Direct Connect

White Label Device

If you are utilizing the white-labelled Direct Connect device (aka “hood”) to upload data from the SCRAM CAM Bracelet to SCRAMNET, follow the steps below to install the correct version of the Direct Connect application.

Procedure

  1. If Direct Connect is open, close the application before proceeding.
  2. If the version of the Direct Connect application you wish to install is already installed, that version should be uninstalled before re-installing the application.
    Information It is not necessary to uninstall Direct Connect V1 to install Direct Connect V2; however, it is strongly recommended to avoid confusion.
  3. If you are still using the Windows 7 operating system, you must first install Microsoft .NET (“dot net”) Framework 4 before installing the application:
    Download & install Microsoft .NET Framework 4 (opens in new tab/window)

    Information Newer versions of the Microsoft Windows operating system (Windows 8, 10, & 11, e.g.) already include the Microsoft .NET (“dot net”) Framework and do not require an additional installation.
  4. Install the Direct Connect software application:

    1. Access the SCRAMnet Direct Connect installation page. You will know you are on the correct installation page if it reads Version: 2.2.0.4.
    2. Ensure that “Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7.2 Client Profile (x86 and x64)” and “Windows Installer 4.5” are installed.
