Cause

Use a system use notification to inform persons accessing the system of authorization requirements, to get user acceptance of terms and conditions before logging in, or to display any other information that you want to make your users aware of.

Resolution

*Warning: Take backups of any files prior to modifying them. Ensure the backups are in a location that will not be overwritten (i.e. the Desktop).

1. In Windows Explorer, locate the system use notification HTML files.
   1. For Web Application clients: ...Power Monitoring Expert
      \Applications\ApplicationFramework\Authentication\PreLoginDialog.
      html.sample.
   2. For Engineering applications: ...Power Monitoring
      Expert\config\content\PreAuthDialog.html.sample.
2. Remove the .sample extension from the filenames. The filenames should now be
   PreLoginDialog.html and PreAuthDialog.html respectively. This enables the
   system use notification.

NOTE: You can enable the notification for Web Application clients only, or for Engineering
applications only, or for both.

3. Open the system use notification files in a text editor, such as Notepad. Edit the default messages to meet your needs. You can use inline HTML styles to customize the appearance of the notifications.
