Activating and Deactivating the Kiosk

Before you can activate the Kiosk module to communicate with your other computers, you must install the Kiosk module and share the Kiosk computer's hard drive.

  2. Browse to the station you want to activate and select the folder containing the PWKIOSK.EXE file.

  3. Click OK. The Kiosk station is displayed in the list of active stations.

  4. Click Close.
