Installing the DSIClientX control
The DSIClientX control is not included in Maitre'D installation. This
application is an XML ActiveX client controlled software that sends encrypted
payment authorization requests via a local area network or Internet to
Datacap's dial and Internet payment servers.
The control is available as a free 5mb self installing executable from
http://www.datacapepay.com/
It may be installed before or after Maitre'D and takes just a minute to
install (requires a reboot).
