The Auto Run  Programs dialog allows you to choose which modules start within V5.
The actual modules available is determined by the licence installed and settings made by the Select Module Wizard.

Note: Unlike Version 4 which modules such as recorders, mimics etc were in separate exe files and could be individually controlled, all programs in V5 are contained in the one exe file and they are still loaded but will not run, the only way to stop V5 modules from being loaded completely on a computer is to use Program Startup settings, hence the Startup Message and Change Startup Options button at the bottom of this dialog. See FAQ note Could Not Upgrade Version 5 Files.

To access Auto run programs, click System Programs link on the Setup Tools screen.

NOTE: Station Testing. To test the MicroScan system without Interfaces or stations connected, DO Not turn them OFF in the System Modules dialog box. Instead use the Stations test mode as documented in How do I test the 2100-XX stations offline.
