Procedure

  1. Open DriverMate.
    The Auto Configuration screen opens.
    The Auto Configuration Screen
  2. Choose one of the following Configuration options:
    OptionDescription
    Automated
    Opens the Automated Configuration screen where the user can enter the appropriate configuration credentials. This will only work for agencies that have been granted access to the automated configuration servers and given credentials to authenticate.
    The User Name and Password screen
    File Picker Opens the OS File Picker and allows the user to manually select the configuration file for the application. This file must be using a JSON format, but can have any name and be located anywhere the File Picker has access to, including cloud drives. The file will be downloaded, validated and stored in the local app storage appropriate for the OS (Android, iOS, Windows).
    Legacy DriverMate will look for the DriverMateXam.json file in the Documents folder. If found it will load the configuration into the local app storage for the appropriate OS (Android, iOS, Windows).

    This option will only be available for DriverMate deployed for Android OS 10 and lower. If this option is not available, then it means that the OS version will not allow DriverMate to directly load the file from the Documents folder.
  3. Optional: Select the Emulation Mode checkbox with Legacy or File Picker.
    The Restart Required pop-up window opens.
