Connecting Console to Service

If Service is installed and running on more than one machine in your LAN, you can connect to an instance of Service that is running on your own machine or to one on another machine.

To connect Console to Service:

  1. On the toolbar, click the Connect To Service button.
  2. In the Server Name dialog box, enter the name of the machine on which Service is running. If Service is running on the same machine as Console, accept the default, which is Local Machine.
    Note: 
      To locate a machine name, open the System folder in the Control Panel of a local machine. Click on the Network Identification tab in the System Properties dialog box.

To disconnect from Service:

To disconnect from a Service, click the Connect To Service button on the toolbar. Console disconnects from the Service to which it is connected. You can then connect to a different Service.

Note: 
  Console starts Service before connecting to it, if it is not already running.
