Reconnect Project Storage Folder:

Cyclone REGISTER 360 now allows users to re-connect the project storage folder to support users who have experienced critical issues with their processing computer.

Cyclone REGISTER 360 supports connecting to a single project instead of the entire project storage folder.

Workflow:

Click the Reconnect button.

2. Browse to a storage folder containing REGISTER 360 projects and select Choose.

3. Select one or more projects to connect and click the OK button.

4. When completed a dialog will show the number of connected projects.

Use and limitations of this feature:

This feature supports the re-connection of Project Storage Folders that have been disconnected.

Reconnecting a Project Storage folder from Cyclone REGISTER 360 Version 1.5.1 or earlier will work, but with limitations:

The name of the project will be lost, and the project will be named Project_1 then, for the next Project, Project_2 and so on.
To avoid the loss of the project name, open the project in Cyclone REGISTER 360 Version 1.6.0 or later.
The bundle count listed in the Project Explorer, seen upon startup, will show 0 bundles until the project is opened. The Bundle(s) will still be in the project.
Storage of a Project Storage folder on a NAS drive and using this feature to reconnect with different computers running Cyclone REGISTER 360 (i.e. using NAS as a project server for multiple instances of Cyclone REGISTER 360) is not recommended. This feature is designed to restore data in the event of a critical system failure only.

This feature does not support concurrent connections to Project Storage folders. Only one computer can be connected AND using a Project Storage folder.

Once the 1st computer running Cyclone REGISTER 360 connects to the Project Storage Folder on a NAS drive the 2nd computer running Cyclone REGISTER 360 will not be able to connect to the same Project Storage folder until the 2nd computer re-connects to the same Project Storage folder. However, the 1st computer will still list the project, but will not be able to connect until the 1st computer reconnects.

If there is a connection error, please check that the project is not already listed. If it is already listed, remove the drive containing the project that you are trying to connect from the computer and then delete the entry for the project listed as connected. Then try and re-connect the drive and then re-connect the project.
