Enfocus Pack Manager

Import and update mechanism

Configurators from some Crossroads partners are shipped with the Switch installer and can be loaded during a post installation procedure (packs). However, for some other partners the plug-in can only be downloaded from the Crossroads website.

Update installations include all configurator packs. Enfocus Pack Manager is used to assist the user in managing configurators.

Users can also manually download the configurators from the Crossroads website and eventually install via Enfocus Pack Manager.

In FullSwitch and PowerSwitch, click Manage configurators... option in the Help menu of the Menu bar. This option provides access to new configurators and an install/ update/ remove mechanism for configurators that are already installed.

You can also use the Enfocus Pack Manager dialog box to display the Switch help system in a language other than English by installing the appropriate language pack and selecting the desired language. In FullSwitch and PowerSwitch, you can invoke the Enfocus Pack Manager dialog box by clicking the Manage Languages... option in the Help menu of the Menu bar too.
