Application Preferences
The Application Preferences dialog lets you configure how Cognio behaves while you work. Open it from the Tools menu by clicking Application Preferences.
Click Ok to save your changes, or Cancel to close the dialog without saving. Pressing Esc or clicking outside the dialog also closes it without saving.
Pairing and Sync
Confirm Pairing
When enabled, Cognio shows a confirmation dialog before pairing with a device. Turn this off if you want pairing to happen without an extra prompt.
Push to Devices on Sync
Controls what happens when you sync the site with connected devices.
- Push — Cognio automatically pushes site information to the devices.
- Ask — Cognio asks whether to push site information to the devices or pull from them each time you sync.
Automatically Pair and Sync When Operating
When enabled, when transitioning into Operating Mode, any unpaired device added to the application is automatically paired and synced if Cognio finds it on the network.
Saving
Save Site On Push
When enabled, Cognio automatically saves the site file each time you push to devices.
Auto-Save Site
When enabled, Cognio automatically saves the site after a period of inactivity. Use the Interval field to set how many seconds Cognio waits after the last change before saving. The interval accepts values from 10 to 1000 seconds and defaults to 30.
Turning Auto-Save on triggers an immediate save of the current site.
