The following workstation specifications are designed to satisfy the requirements for running APEX and are current as of July 10, 2023:

• Processor: Intel i5 or greater
• Memory: 8 GB Minimum / 16 GB Recommended
• Disk Storage: Depends on your environment. (See note.)
• USB Port: Available USB 2.0 port (See note.)
• Network (LAN) Adapter: 100 Mbps or higher. Notes:**

• The SafeNet eToken requires a USB 2.0 style port. USB-C adapters are not supported.

• CeRTNA exchanges files with the recording vendor software using a Windows folder. This folder can be either a local folder on the local hard drive of the workstation, for example the C: drive, or it can be a shared network folder, for example \\your_server\shared_folder\. If you use a network share, the CeRTNA ERDS workstation will need to have network access to the shared folder or UNC path where the CeRTNA ERDS XML transactions will be accessed for submissions, stored upon retrieval, and or picked up for return. Please refer to the section Folder Structure in the Workstation Installation Guide for a description of how the standard CeRTNA ERDS folder structure should be created.

• If you will be using a standalone workstation, you will need a security cabinet for your ERDS workstation. You can click this link to see a security cabinet that CeRTNA recommends.

• If you will be submitting transactions, you may need to acquire a scanner and scanning software. The brand of scanner/software is left up to the submitter, however, any scanner/software selected needs to be able to produce, black & white, CCITT T.6 (Group4-Compressed), 300 dpi, TIFF image files.
