Starting the Application

Once installed, Image XChange should start automatically when you log into your computer. If you do need to start it, double-click the Extensions () icon in your Windows system tray to open the Extensions Manager. Select Image XChange, click the More Options () icon and from there, click Start.

When Image XChange first starts, it will momentarily log into GlobalSearch to gather details on databases, Archives, and Searches. If you are not already logged into GlobalSearch and a license is not available, the No License Available button appears in the context menu or the Image XChange Settings. At any time, you can click the button to try again.

Application Usage

Once running, the Image XChange () icon will appear in your Windows® system tray. Right-click the icon to open the context menu. This is where you can select which Search you would like to run and, if any additional configuration is required, where you can access the Image XChange Settings.

...

Once the Search has run, any documents that meet your search criteria appear in the GlobalSearch Search Results Document List, in a new browser tab. If you are not already logged into GlobalSearch, you will be prompted to log in at this time. From this point, use the search results as you would normally in GlobalSearch.

Application Configuration

Use the Image XChange Settings interface to customize search options for your specific needs. You can select the Searches from those available for the database(s), and configure how those Searches will run in Image XChange. Use the Settings to create a list of Image XChange Searches so that you can quickly switch your active Search from the list in your context menu.

Exiting the Application

Image XChange is designed to run in the background, ready for use. It only consumes a license when it's actively being used to search for documents. If you need to close the application for any reason, click Exit in the context menu.
