 ====== System Requirements for DHD Software ======
 For using DHD software like Toolbox 8, DHD Operation Manager, DHD Operation Server or the PC TFT view software we recommend a PC system with the following specifications.
-The software runs on every standard PC with Windows 7. The temporary data rate can be very enormous dependent on the simultaneous executed commands. Because of this you should use a PC equipped with up-to-date hardware.

+**Note**\\  This chapter applies to all software of DHD audio running on Microsoft Windows computers.
+</WRAP>
+DHD audio PC software applications are designed to run reliable, stable and safely. To ensure that, our software applications require some user rights and the host machine has to match some prerequisites.
+==== Active user login ====
+All software applications of DHD audio needs to be run as a logged in user on Windows. The applications are not designed to run as a service in the background. They provide an integrated interactive front end to the user for configuration, monitoring and operation.
+<WRAP center round info 80%>
+**Note**\\  This also applies to [[dhdcs:start|DHD Communication Server]] and [[os:start|DHD Operation Server]]. They are not designed to run as a backend service.
+</WRAP>
+==== Administrative rights ====
+DHD software applications do not require administrative rights for operation. However, during the first setup or update operations, a higher user level may be temporary requested in order to install or register additional components on the system.

+Views App in the Web requires a recent Browser, running on whatever operating system. DHD recommends using one of the following recommended browsers with at least the tested version.

+**Note**\\  **Running Views App on a Raspberry Pi**
+Browsers on Raspberry Pi usually have no hardware acceleration for graphical drawings. Therefore, Raspberry Pi can only be recommended with reservation as an operating platform. Too many peakmeters and parallel use of touch faders and/or touch EQ TFT elements will slow the application down to a very low frame rate. For best practice, we recommend configuring a minimum of 512 mb GPU Memory on Raspbian operation system.
