Administrative and
user configuration
files Within the KSS500 - Scanner Admin application is the Configuration
Organizer which allows you to create administrative and user
configuration files.
The Configuration Organizer is used to create either administrative or
user configuration files that are used to configure the Scan Station 500.
The Configuration Organizer file is named KSS500.XML and can only
be read by the Scan Station and Configuration Organizer. It can also be
password protected.
NOTE: User’s can install just the Configuration Organizer on their own
PC (see the User’s Guide). For security reasons, the KSS500 -
Scanner Admin application cannot be installed on a PC that has
the Configuration Organizer installed.
Differences between the administrative and user configuration files are:
Administrative configuration files
Administrative configuration files are settings that define Scan Station
default settings created by the administrator.
• When installing a configuration file using a USB drive, if the contents
of the configuration file do not match the exact contents of the
configuration file currently stored on the Scan Station, you will be
prompted to update the Scan Station with the configuration file on the
USB drive.
• Only administrative configuration files can be used to define printers
and modify the default settings on a Scan Station.
NOTE: You can also create your own configuration files that contain
your personal Scan Station preferences using the KSS500 -
Scanner Admin application under File>Save As User.
User configuration files
• Users can create their own configuration files that contain personal
scanning preferences. These users can make the changes to
destinations and settings using the Configuration Organizer and save
it on their USB flash drive.
• Only user configuration files can define USB drive folders.
• The user cannot make any permanent changes to the Scan Station’s
configuration file. Instead, all of the user’s destinations will appear on
the Scan Station’s display and will be merged with the default
destination groups. A “user” profile image will be displayed as part of
the icon on the top toolbar indicating that user settings are available
during the scan session.
• If the user’s personal configuration contains changes to the scan
settings (values found on the Settings screen), these settings
temporarily replace the Scan Station’s default settings.
• When a scan job is complete, the user’s USB flash drive can be
removed from the Scan Station and the Scan Station display returns
to the normal state with the default settings restored.
