Local Settings Tab

The Local Settings tab contains settings that apply only to the Scan2x instance on which they are configured.

Note: Unit ID, Default Scanner, Enable system sounds, Enable virtual on-screen keyboard, Automatically use Single sign-on at startup and the automatic job trigger settings are not used when configuring web, ScanFront 400 and MFD environments.

The scanning queue and parallel saving settings are on the Advanced Local Settings tab.

Identification and Defaults

•Unit ID: A name for this Scan2x workstation. Give each Scan2x on the same network a different name so that they can be told apart.

•Default Scanner: The scanner Scan2x uses by default when it is connected. If the selected scanner type is not connected, this setting has no effect.

•Default Output Path: The UNC path used by all jobs that have the Scan to Default Path output option selected.

•Webserver URL: Applies only to Scan2x Web Access Server licences. Enter the Scan2x Web Server URL, for example http://localhost:9009. This must be set before Hybrid Scan Queue Sync on the General Settings tab becomes accessible.

Note: Scan2x Online tenants should not use Default Output Path. When saving in Scan2x Online, Scan2x cannot access the user's local directories.

Login and Interface

•Enable system sounds: Clear this checkbox to disable the sounds Scan2x uses by default to indicate a user action, such as the button press sound when a user types their PIN at login.

•Enable virtual on-screen keyboard: Enables or disables the on-screen keyboard for touchscreen devices working in kiosk mode.

•Automatically use Single sign-on at startup: Allows Scan2x to use the login identity of the Windows PC on which it is running, so that users can access Scan2x without a PIN. This also works when the PC is not joined to an Active Directory network. If the Windows user does not exist in the Scan2x user directory, the user is created automatically.

•Keep system logged in after initial log in: Disables the auto logout countdown.

Automatic Job Triggering

These settings control folder watching. Enable Jobs that are set to automatically trigger when PDF / Image files are found in their respective paths and Trigger interval are available only with the Workload Server option of Scan2x.

•Enable Jobs that are set to automatically trigger when PDF / Image files are found in their respective paths: Enables folder watching for jobs that are set to trigger automatically.

•Trigger interval: The polling time, in seconds, that Scan2x uses on each folder.

•Process as: The username used to process automatically imported files.

•Attempt to use the file creator's username: Scan2x tries to identify the creator of a file in the monitored folder. If it succeeds, the file is saved to the output destination using the name and permissions of the creator.
