Specifying settings for running Kiosk

If you want Kiosk to start automatically when the nControl boots up, you must specify a project name (and optionally, a user name and password). These settings will then be used automatically.

A project name is also required if you want to start Kiosk manually by exiting the main set up screen in the Windows interface. If you specify the project using the Windows interface, the Exit button will be available immediately. If you use the web interface, you must firstly display the project settings in the Windows interface, then select Exit to refresh the display.

To specify settings for running Kiosk

  1. Navigate to the User Management tab.

    You will be asked to log on.

  2. Specify your username and password. The default username is superuser; it has no password.
  3. Under Kiosk Configuration, click in the Project box.
  4. Type the name of the NWare project, and then click OK.

    If you do not specify a valid project, the user will be prompted to choose a project when the unit powers up.

    Note: The project name is case-sensitive.

  5. Click in the User box.
  6. Type the username for the project, and then click OK.

    Note: The username is case-sensitive.

  7. Click in the Password box.
  8. Type the password for the project, and then click OK.

    Note: The password is case-sensitive.

  9. Click Set.
