Networking > How It Works

Gym Assistant Networking requires a simple shared data folder. This folder can be placed anywhere on your local network, as long as all of the workstations can access the folder and modify files in the folder.

Gym Assistant Networking DOES NOT require a “server” computer.

It requires only a “host” computer (or network drive) that will hold the data.

Here are the basic steps to setting up Gym Assistant networking:

1.First, create the Data Folder and share that folder with all other computers on the network.

2.Install Gym Assistant on one computer.

3.After entering your registration information, Gym Assistant will ask you to Create a “New Data File.” Select the Data folder you created in Step 1.

4.Install Gym Assistant on the other computers.

5.At startup, Gym Assistant will ask you to find a data file.

6.Point the application to the same Data Folder that you created in Step 1, and all the computers will automatically point to the same Data Folder.
