The Driver Properties window displays general driver information (description, acronym, etc.) and lists the constituent modules, displaying the version number and release date for each. This information must always be communicated when requesting technical assistance for the driver in question.


Running connectors as non-visible application

 

You can run the driver without that appear in the system tray (taskbar) of Windows. To activate this option, tick the checkbox Don't show in the taskbar present in the properties window of the driver (see Viewing the properties of the driver).


Note: Some connectors may not support this option.
