The server section provides information about the server connection, allows the administrator to connect/disconnect from a server, and synchronize results.
Connection Status
Icons indicate the connection status to the server.
- No server is configured.
- The connection to the server cannot be established (e.g. no/wrong configuration or no wireless access).
- Slow connection to the server.
- Stable connection to the server.
When not yet connected, the administrator can scan a server credential QR Code using the Connect to Server button.
It is possible to add server credentials manually by adding a credential file using the Apple Devices app.
This is helpful when performing an offline exam and and creating a backup of the results on a server in a later step.
Connected
When connected to a server, Valuatic Touch automatically synchronizes with the server roughly every 30 seconds. An automatic sync triggers:
- Uploading not yet synced results (current exam only).
- Downloading new exam data (if possible).
- Uploading of device status information for Valuatic Studio to display.
Manual Synchronization
Two different kinds of synchronization can be triggered manually.
Contrarily to the automated sync, results already synced are synced again in the process.
Note: This process might take a while.
Synchronize & Upload Current Exam Results will synchronize only results of the current exam version.
Synchronize & Upload All Exam Results will synchronize all results of this exam, including previous exam versions.
When disconnecting from the server, results that have not yet been synced are automatically uploaded.
