Starting a mode

The displayed buttons allow you to start the mode of your choice. The playback takes place in the datango trainer, which is opened in line with your settings.
When using the trainer, please also pay attention to this application's internal Help function, which provides additional information. You can launch this both in demo and concurrent mode.

Note: Playing back modes for context helps and process supports requires datango navigator to be installed. Consult your administrator to arrange this.

View settings

Before starting a mode, you can define the view in which it is to be opened:

• Leave course structure open
  If this setting is selected, the course structure will remain open when the mode is launched in the library window and the lesson will be displayed on the right next to the course structure. This additionally requires the setting In a new window to be deactivated.
  If the setting is deactivated, the lesson will be opened in the full library window. Terminating the mode then returns you to the library view.

• In a new window
  If this setting is activated, a mode is opened in a new window.
  If the setting is deactivated, the lesson will be opened in the library browser window. Be aware here as well of the Leave course structure open option.

If you have applied settings in your library, these will be retained even after the library has been closed. That means that you can keep them as your default settings and do not need to reapply them when you next launch the library.

Start mode

To start a mode, click on the corresponding button. The mode of your choice will then be opened and played back in the trainer.

Note: Should the required browser settings for playing back a lesson not be correct, this will be indicated by an error message. You can now change the browser settings and restart the mode. Please also refer to the Browser Settings section.

When playing back a lesson, an individual start page will be displayed for each mode. This page will contain an explanation of the mode and the user will receive an introduction to the application and way in which the mode operates.
Now click on Start. Depending on the mode you have selected, you can now run through the lesson or play it back.

If the lesson has been completed or terminated prematurely, the trainer will indicate as much by means of a stop page. In Test mode the stop page will indicate whether you have passed the mode as well as an assessment of the result you achieved.

Note: Please bear in mind that start and stop pages are not necessarily displayed. The author can deactivate them. This will cause a lesson to start and close automatically.
