Environment Variables
The QwickACCESS application will use the values of environment variables to perform its functions. You need to set the values of these environment variables to match your environment. This can be achieved by configuring the QwickAccess profile in the UMS Console.
To change these variables, follow the proceeding steps.
In the QwickACCESS profile, click System >Firmware Customization > Environment Variables > Predefined.
The new window will display the Predefined settings that need to be configured in order for the QA application to work in the organization’s environment.
Enter the values for the following Predefined variables.
ProxServerHost
This information is to include the fully qualified domain name of the computer on which the XA ProxServer is located.
Example: ProxServerHost=Server1.example.com
ProxServerPort
Enter the port on which the ProxAuth server is listening.
Example: ProxServerPort=30001
WindowsDomainCount
Enter the number of Windows domains that contain the users that will use the QAX-IGEL solution. By default, the WindowsDomainCount is set to 1.
WindowsDomain0
Enter the name of the first Windows domain that contains the users that will use the QAX-IGEL solution.
Example: demo.example.com=DEMO
For more customization options, click on Additional located directly under the Predefined section in the left navigation pane.
This section contains optional settings that can be customized for the organization's needs. See the table under Additional Settings for a list of these options and their valid values.
Click Save when all edits are made and close the window upon completion.

When a person taps out, I want the session to be locked. Then after the session is locked, if that person doesn’t return and tap back in within 5 minutes, I want the session to be automatically disconnected. In addition, if a person just walks away from their active session, I want the system to lock automatically after 2 minutes. | LockScreenEnabled=true LockTimerEnabled=true LockTimerTotalSeconds=120 LogoffTimerEnabled=true LogoffTimerTotalSeconds=300 RemoteKioskModeEnabled=false |
