If a workstation that is not connected to the network( example, in the case of travelling staff) needs to be scanned, the 'Scan this System' functionality comes into play. This works only in the Internet Explorer browser.
Click the ‘Scan this System’ icon on the top left hand side of the screen, just below the application tabs.
Scan is performed using an ActiveX control. Browser will prompt to install ActiveX.
Choose ‘Install’ from the dialog box that appears. This starts the scan.
Once the scan is complete, you will get a confirmation message.
The workstation details are automatically added to the application.
