Options

AppLock contains several types of delays and timeouts to accommodate different applications. Please note that the delays specified on the Application Launch Options (page 5-24)panel are delays before AppLock attempts to start the specified application(s). The timeouts specified on this panel are delays after AppLock has attempted to launch the application.

Launch timeout

This timeout specifies the period of time for AppLock to wait for the application to initially launch after the application has been called. For example, if the application takes time to launch and then initialize before a display window is created, use this delay to specify the delay period.

Replace timeout

This timeout specifies the period of time for AppLock to wait after an initial screen (like a password prompt screen) is replaced by another application window.

Restart timeout

This specifies the period of time for AppLock to wait for an application to restart. If the application fails to restart automatically, AppLock then proceeds according to the options selected when the application was configured on the Application (page 5-23)and Application Launch Options (page 5-24)panels.

Status

Use the Status panel to view the log of previous AppLock operations and to configure which messages are to be recorded during AppLock operation.

Status information is stored in a specific location on the storage device and in a specific log file specified by the Admin- istrator. For this reason, the administrator can configure the type of status information that is logged, as well as clear the status information.

Move the cursor to the Filename text box and either type the logfile path or tap the Browse button (the … button). The standard Windows CE Browse dialog is displayed. After selecting the logfile from the Browse dialog, tap OK.

For detail on error messages written to the log, see AppLock Error Messages (page 10-8).

Note: If your Status Panel does not look like the figure shown above, you may have the Single Application version which does not have as many options.
