Parameters

SystemName

The parameter SystemName is used for building up local IDs and can reduce the risk of duplicate IDs when Data Entry is decentralised.

Local ID generators are used when generating a Local ID in a Data Entry Form by clicking on Generate ID Number.png. The Local ID of a Data Entry Template is composed of five parts:

  1. Prefix from the Local ID generator
  2. divider (usually hyphen) i.e. -
  3. System Name set in IMSMA Client Configuration Tool (optional)
  4. divider (usually hyphen) i.e. -
  5. Next Number from the Local ID generator

which for an Activity may look like CR-MAG HQ-1 or for a Victim Vic-MACC3-4581.

The System Name may be set for each computer where IMSMANG is installed. For example, the MAG Head quarter's computer could have MAG HQ as a system name while a regional installation could have MAG R1.

Client-Server

The following parameters are used for clients in a client/server configuration:

  • java.naming.provider.url
  • isClientOnly

and are explained here.

If AlwaysSyncGeodata is set to false then the local geodatabase on the client computer will not automatically be updated/synced with the server. The client's geodatabase will be re-synced at restart of the client or when the user clicks the refresh map button (RefreshIcon.png).

If there is a problem with network performance and clients freezes due to their geodatabase is updated, then try with changing AlwaysSyncGeodata to false.

Other

The following parameters are not normally changed:

  • GISSandboxPath
  • IMSMACoordSysPath
  • GISServerURI
  • FontSize
