Perceptive Content (ImageNow): Create a Connection Profile

Last Updated | Permalink

At least one connection profile is required for the Perceptive Content Client to determine the connection settings when connecting to the Perceptive Content servers. This profile is automatically generated when installing the Perceptive Content Client. If you already have a profile named UWECProd listed, you do not need to create another one. If you do need a UWECProd connection profile, please create it by following these steps:

  1. Open the Perceptive Content Client.

  2. Click the Connection Profiles tab.

  3. Click Edit connection profiles.
