Download

Configure

  1. You need a personal .zip package to configure the XoT Client. This is generated via the XMS and shall be distributed by the administrator.
  2. If no configuration is found when starting the XoT Client, the XoT Client Config application then opens. Alternatively, if you need to reconfigure the XoT Client, start the XoT Client Config application.
  3. In the XoT Client Config application, begin by confirming that both Location and Username have been correctly detected. If not, they should be manually adjusted.
  4. Start by selecting "Setup user config", "Import root certificate" and "Setup global config". Upon selecting the latter, the system will prompt the user to elevate its privileges and a dialog should appear requesting to execute the config with administrator rights. Select yes and proceed to enabling the same options as before and click "Apply" to complete the process. If a password is requested, provide the password for the Zip-file.
  5. Provide ample time for the dialogs and confirmation windows to appear. When you are prompted, allow the service to restart, and close the XoT Client Config application. You are now ready to start the XoT Client.
