NIVOMAX Viewer Settings

Disclaimer

SYNAXIOM does not distribute NIVOMAX Viewer setup files directly to end users. To obtain the necessary setup files, users must download a copy directly from the Technical Publications Supplier's NIVOMAX Self Serve portal, subsequent to agreeing to the terms and conditions stipulated therein. The Technical Publication Supplier, possessing a valid Distribution ID for their copy of the NIVOMAX Applications, is the sole distributor. Access to and use of the NIVOMAX Viewer is contingent upon the purchase of a Data License for a digital product from the Technical Publications Supplier. The digital product downloaded will function exclusively with the viewer provided by the respective Supplier. Users are advised that the distribution of NIVOMAX Viewer setup files may be governed by applicable export control regulations depending on their region.

Licensing

It is not necessary for end-users to purchase a separate NIVOMAX license. The Technical Publications Supplier from whom you have acquired your Data License has already procured the requisite licenses from SYNAXIOM. By extending an invitation, they include you within their authorized user pool, as permitted under their NIVOMAX license agreement. You are authorized to use the NIVOMAX software provided the Technical Publications Supplier maintains a valid NIVOMAX software license.

Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) Support Settings

Each instance of the NIVOMAX software running on the Windows Server requires a dedicated port to operate. When multiple users run the software concurrently via Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), each user session will utilize one of the ports from the specified range. Configuring an appropriate port range ensures smooth operation and prevents conflicts between user sessions.

Warning !

This operation should only be performed by advanced users with Administrator privileges. Incorrect configuration may result in application or system errors.

Please specify a port range between 1024 and 49151 that is available on the Windows Server. Avoid ports already in use by other applications, services, or the Data Server (if the Data Server is running on the same Windows Server) to prevent conflicts. Using ports outside this range or blocked ports may cause operational issues.

  • How to Use: To enable this feature, click the checkbox to the right of the label “Enable configuration for Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) use on Windows Server.”
  • Additional Details: This setting is initially configured during installation. The selected option will appear here for reference or adjustment.
