This trial version of SNAP!™ is limited to keypads addressed 1-5. With no system connected, in "Demo mode" the software will create random data graphs titled "Demo Data".
A license code may be purchased for 100 or the maximum number of keypads your base station/system will support. The license code is tied to the base station serial number. The beauty of this combination is that it allows you to download the software onto as many computers as you’d like and freely share the system with many others in your organization. The maximum number of keypads for each system are as follows:
Worldwide/CRS5000 Mini – 250 keypad maximum
WRS5100 Mini, WRS7000, WRS7100 Mini+, or WRS7200 Plus – 500 keypad maximum
Interact Line – 400 keypad maximum with USB base and 500 keypad maximum with desk model base
Hardware Compatability: Windows PC Only. Not currently compatible with Mac OS or Linux
OS Requirements: MS Windows XP, XP Pro, Vista, Windows 7, 8 or 10 (supports 64-bit operating system, but 32-bit Office needs to be loaded to support the current active-x controls used by SNAP) - Home Premium versions are not supported. Windows regional language needs to be set to English.
  • Have full administrative rights to install all software appropriately
  • Turn User Account Control all the way down/off
  • Set your PowerPoint Trust Center to enable Active X Controls and Macros
  • Add the SNAP subdirectory to the Trusted Locations to ensure PowerPoint is okay with you running SNAP. The location of this directory will be different depending on whether you are running a 32-bit or 64-bit OS:
64-bit: C:\Program Files (x86)\Audience Response Systems, Inc\SNAP
32-bit: C:\Program Files\Audience Response Systems, Inc\SNAP
When installing the base station drivers for the first time, the above notes will also apply.
If Windows 8 or above gives you an error message referencing the "Snapinfoc" file, it means the subdirectory is not set to read/write. The program attempts to set the subdirectory properties for you. If it doesn’t, change the properties manually by following these directions….
  1. To change the properties of the folder to allow all users, right-click on the folder and choose properties.
  2. Choose the SECURITY tab, then choose USERS under the GROUP OR USER NAMES list.
  3. Click the EDIT button.
  4. Check all the ALLOW boxes, click APPLY then OK.
Please note: It is the customer's responsibility to seek assistance or clearance from their IT Department, if necessary, to download or install a software package from Audience Response Systems, Inc. The software does require the use of ActiveX controls, the installation of USB serial device drivers and proprietary device drivers for the use of the base station and USB software HASP. Because of these requirements, administrative privileges are necessary in order to install the software and the lack of administrative privilege will cause installation to fail and the software to be inoperable.
Note that SNAP does require 32-bit PowerPoint (64-bit computers are fine). For those who must use 64-bit PowerPoint, we offer EdiVote Pro from our partner InfoWhyse in Germany, the owner of the Reply brand.
