Introduction
In some cases, InTouch is installed on a machine without Microsoft SQL Server. When SQL Server is not installed in the machine where
you are installing InTouch, InTouch installs SQL Server Express. You can also install SQL Server Express manually. 

The InTouch Alarm DB Logger requires a SQL-Authenticated connection. However, by default, SQL Server Express does not enable the
SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode. This option must be configured manually after the installation.

Note: If SQL Server is already installed, InTouch's Alarm DB Logger will make use of it.

When InTouch installs SQL Server Express, complete the following steps to turn on SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode
and enable the sa account.
