Citrix and Centralized Settings  The setup of centralized settings is the same when using Citrix  The setup depends on the hospital network configuration

 The Default Settings can be modified by running Noxturnal in the Admin Mode on any of the workstations. Those changes will then propogate to the rest of the computers on the network  With centralized User Settings users can move between computers and always receive “their” settings Advantages of Using Centralized Settings

Things To Keep In Mind 1)Copy the files from the original settings folder to the Network location 2)Never delete the settings from the original settings folder created when Noxturnal is installed (C:\ProgramData\Nox Medical\Noxturnal) 3)Store the Default Settings and the User Settings in seperate folders on the Network location (Noxturnal Never change the “Recording Library” path from the original path) 4)Make sure that all Noxturnal users have reading permission on the Network location where Default Settings are stored 5)All changes that should be stored in the Default Settings database need to be setup running Noxturnal in Administrator mode 6)Make sure to select the correct branch for the Registry script before exporting (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Nox Medical/Noxturnal)
