Faronics Insight User Guide

User Interface Tips

Faronics Insight was designed to be simple and easy-to-use. Most of the features are accessible
from the Faronics Insight system tray menu or dock icon. The more advanced features are
available in the Faronics Insight Teacher console.

All of the features are grouped under one of five menu items: Demonstrate, Monitor, Restrict,
Administer, and View.

Faronics Insight Toolbar Buttons

To use a feature in Faronics Insight, select the individual student or students and press the
Faronics Insight Toolbar button that corresponds to the feature that you want to use. At that point
the button will depress and change to a lighter color. To stop using that feature, click the button
again.

Some of the Faronics Insight Toolbar Buttons have a little arrow to the right of the button. Click on
the button to access additional options for that feature.

Buttons can be added, removed or moved by click on View then Configure Toolbar on a PC or
Customize Toolbar on a Mac, though not in the new Windows Multipoint Server (WMS) Teacher.
This version of the Teacher can be accessed by a very similar toolbar within the Multipoint
Manager console. However, this toolbar provides a drop down list to select features, and does not
behave as a toggle switch.

Activating Web and Application Limiting

Web and Application limiting must be configured before they can be activated. You may configure
these features in the preferences menu and then turn them on through the menus or the toolbar
buttons.
