Modifying Mobile App Settings and Running Network Scans

The Settings function allows you to adjust how the Mobile App is implemented on a tablet. These settings are only for the active tablet and do not impact any other tablets registered for the same location.

The Settings screen is accessed from the Mobile App menu:

There are three sections to the Settings screen:

Options

The options fields are where you can enable or disable options for the Mobile App:

Each option has three states as identified by the controls to the right of each description:

• Light gray means the setting is available, but not enabled:
  • To enable it, drag the button to the right until it turns green.
• Dark gray means the setting is not available because of a setting in the Server App
• Green means the setting is available and enabled:
  • To disable it, drag the button to the left until it turns light gray.

There are six options that you can enable:

• Loud Alarms uses a loud alarm for checklist and timed log alarms instead of the standard alarm.
• Use Default Device Sounds uses the sounds from the tablet setup for the application rather than the sounds provided by ComplianceMate.
• Use probe colors instead of aliases will refer to a probe by its color designation, rather than its alias when prompting you to use that probe. Probe colors for a checklist are set through the Behavior options for a checklist in the Server App.
• Save photos to device saves checklist photos to your device, rather than leaving them only on the ComplianceMate server.
• Disable Auto Sync controls the synchronizing process between the Mobile App and the ComplianceMate Server during the standard checklist completion process:
  • If Disable Auto Sync is disabled (default), then synchronizing is carried out at several points during the checklist completion process, as indicated by the synchronizing icon:

    

  • If Disable Auto Sync is enabled, then synchronizing only occurs during the Phone Home Times set for the location in the Server App.
  • This does not impact Manually Synchronizing Data.
  • Reusable checklists and timed logs continue to use auto sync, regardless of this setting.
• Show List Categories Tab as Default causes the Checklist function to show the Categories tab instead of All Checklists when you access the function from the Mobile App menu:

    

App Version

The App version section, which describes the current version of the Mobile App installed on the tablet:

• The App version number and build number (in parentheses)
• The API version, which references the Server App version for your location
• The Device ID, captured when the QR code was scanned during registration
• The Translation Language selected for the device
• The Tablet Language set for the device

Scan

The Scan section, which allows you to run a network scan from the Mobile App to verify the connectivity of your tablet.

When you tap SCAN, the Mobile App will carry out the network scan and report the results at the bottom of the screen:
