This dialogue allow you to control the general behavior of Eyeline.

Startup Run Mode

Eyeline can be set to run automatically when the computer starts. To enable or disable this, tick or untick the "Run Eyeline automatically on Startup" option. If you want to use Eyeline for a permanent recording service, you should select this option.

There are many modes of running automatically which you can select in the pull down list labeled 'Select the run mode'.

If you want Eyeline to run always irrespective of whether anyone is logged on select one of the "Run As Service" options. When running as a service Eyeline will work before logon and after log off.

By default when running as a service Eyeline will 'show' and be accessible to all users as an icon on the tray of task bar. You can change this to limit it to the current user or no users. If you plan to use Windows Terminal or Remote Desktop you probably should restrict Eyeline to a local user or no users because 'showing' on a remote desktop can sometimes knock out local devices because they attempt to use the remote devices!

Running as a service only takes effect the next time you restart the PC. You should also check that it works after restarting your computer. If you have any problems check any folders are accessible from the "Local System" account. If you need to send email from Eyeline using MAPI, you must change the "Log On As" password for the Eyeline Service. To do this, after you have set Run as Service, open Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Services. Double click on "Eyeline Service", select the Log On tab, select this account and then enter the name and password of the user account to use to send email.

Show icon on task bar
