ELO Java Client registry entries

You can configure the server settings for your users by making an entry to the Windows Registry. Open the Registry Editor and navigate to the following key:

Java Client, registry

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JavaSoft\Prefs\ELO Digital Office\eloenterprise

Create a string named archive1 and a string value of the Indexserver URL with the forward slashes replaced by backslashes. For example, the value could read http:\\localhost:9090\ix-elo\ix. Next, create a second string named name1 and enter the name of the profile to the field. Capital letters must have a forward slash in front of them, e.g. /E/L/O repository. There are additional rules for special characters. If you need them in the repository name, create a profile in the Java Client and check the result in the registry.

You can add profiles in the same way: repository2/name2, repository3/name3, and so on. You can make the following additional entries:

Name (string)Value
languageen, de, fr, etc. Determines the default language of the Java Client at logon. If you enter an invalid language code, the fallback language English is used.
lastloginUser name shown by default in the logon window.

rrc_<...>Refer to the documentation titled Registry Remote Control for a detailed explanation of these settings.
sernoThis registry entry is displayed at the bottom left of the logon window. It will be overwritten by the value from the Indexserver at next logon.
