As well as starting and ending the visitor welcome message, the context menu allows you to undertake various configuration settings. To do this, open the vistraxWelcome configuration via the menu item “Configuration” in the context menu.
In the following login dialog, log yourself in with your vistrax user data (your user account must have permission to undertake configuration in vistraxWelcome).
The following options are available in the vistraxWelcome configuration.
Current: Select the monitor on which the visitor welcome message should currently be displayed.
Standard: Select the monitor on which the visitor welcome message should be displayed as standard when vistraxWelcome is started
Orientation: This allows the projection area to be rotated in 90° steps.
This allows you to set whether the visitor welcome message should begin automatically when the program is started. You can also define whether vistraxWelcome should start automatically when Windows is started.
Here you can adjust the language settings and reset notifications
Here you can define for which period of time your visitors' personal welcome message should be shown.
Here you can filter visitor data intended for display on the actual welcome message screen. First select either a single mandator or all mandators from the list, and then set the visitor status and the gates which the welcome message is intended for. The database language determines the language of the vistrax dictionary to be used.
vistraxWecome offers you two design templates (so-called “Projectors”). The page projector displays every visitor on his/her own page, while the list projector displays multiple visitors at the same as a list on the page. List and page projectors can both be configured independently of one another
Here you can select the properties of the screen presentation, e.g. background, colors, fonts in your corporate design etc.
Explanations of the properties are displayed in a gray highlighted box under the settings. Explanations can also be displayed by clicking on the corresponding property. In addition, property groups (welcome message, corporate design, background slideshow, idle slideshow, various) can be made visible or invisible by clicking as appropriate on the plus/minus button.
a) Welcoming
In the left column you can define factors including which visitor data and data about your company (i.e. logo, name, company website) should be displayed on the welcome message screen.
The wording of the salutation and the announcement of the host apply for all visitors to be welcomed in a specific time period - this cannot be set individually.
Wording examples:
- Greeting: “Welcome…”
- Naming Host: “…is happy to welcome…”
b)Corporate Design
Here you have the option of modifying corporate design properties.
c) Info View
The info display allows you to display additional pictures and an additional greeting text. The intervals at which this info display is shown can be configured by selecting one of the options available.
d) Backround Slideshow
The background slideshow allows you to play photos and videos in the background while the welcome message is being displayed. As far as possible, select backgrounds which are delicate and soft without bold shapes, so that the text stands out well. Select the folder in which the files to be displayed are located and adjust further settings for the slideshow as required. If the files are sorted alphabetically, you can control the order in which they are displayed by naming them appropriately (e.g. by including a numerical prefix).
e) Idle Info View
The idle info display is based on the info display mentioned above. It is only shown when no welcome messages are being displayed and the welcome screen is therefore in idle mode. The configuration options available are the same as those available for the info display.
f) Idle Slideshow
The idle slideshow is based on the background slideshow mentioned above. It is only shown when no welcome messages are being displayed and the welcome screen is therefore in idle mode. The configuration options available are the same as those available for the background slideshow.
g) Misc
The “Misc” function allows you to limit the information displayed on the welcome screen. You can chose between “Show visitors and employees” and “Only show visitors”.
Here you can manage the path and size of the cache. The cache serves to accelerate media loading.
As far as possible, these settings should only be changed if requested by vistrax support
Here you can manage the recording of application functions.
Only change these settings if you are requested to do so by vistrax support
