Installing a configurator from within Switch

A number of configurators are installed by default, together with Switch, but you can afterwards install additional configurators as required.

Note:

It is only useful to install configurators for 3rd party applications that you have activated or installed on the computer on which Switch Server is running. Otherwise you will not be able to use these configurators.
You must have licensed the Configurator module.

To install a configurator from within Switch

In Switch, go to Help > Manage configurators . Enfocus Pack Manager is displayed.
In the Sources column, click the appropriate option:
- To install a configurator from the Enfocus website, click Web.
- To install a configurator from your local computer, click Local.
  This could be configurator you downloaded from the Crossroads website, or one you created yourself in SwitchScripter with the Configurator SDK.
To see which configurators are already installed, click Installed. A green icon () at the right hand side indicates that the 3rd party application is installed; a gray icon () indicates that this is not the case, hence the installed configurator cannot be used in Switch.
Select the appropriate configurator. Move your cursor over the configurator, to see a tooltip with (version) information.
Tip: If you don't find the configurator you need, click the Actions button (in the top right corner of the dialog) and select Browse all configurators. This brings you to the Crossroads website.
Exit Switch (both Server and Designer).
Click Install. The icon next to the configurator has become green (). Ater restarting Switch (both Server and Designer), you will see the configurator in the Flow elements name (in the Configurator category).
