    If you have more than one data set in your SoftDent software installation (for example, two doctors in an office maintaining separate records), the port numbers can be set differently so that memo notifications from a sychronized Palm organizer working off one data set will not be displayed on computers working off the other data set. The port numbers can be set arbitrarily in the range of 10000 — 65534. The default is 13005.

  11. Time out for loading SoftDent:Time out for loading SoftDent:
