Web Client - Workstation Settings

About

These settings allow staff to set default behaviors for the Evergreen client.

Disable Sounds

There are four types of sounds trigegred by different Evergreen events: Success, Info, Warning, Error. Checking the Disable Sounds checkbox allows you to turn off all Evergreen sounds.

The volume of these sounds is controlled by your PC volume. You can adjust the volume for all applications by clicking the volume control in the Windows toolbar, or adjust the volume for the Evergreen Chrome profile by opening the Volume Mixer.

1. In the Windows toolbar search box start typing: adjust system volume, click on the option when it appears
2. The Volume Mixer dialog opens, move the volume slider for Chrome

Scanner sounds are not controlled by Evergreen or the PC, and do not indicate any action has been made EXCEPT that something has been scanned.
