View SCENE Projects using WebShare 2Go 2.0 App from a Local Computer Accessing Network Scan Data Files

Details

To provide instructions, we are using two example folder locations: one on the network drive and one on the local computer. Replace these folder locations with your own. We also assume you are using SCENE, but you could also use SCENE LT if you like.  

1. On a network drive, create a folder to receive the transferred SCENE scan projects.
   For example U:/JohnDoe/WS2Go.
2. In SCENE, open the scan project you want to transfer, then click WebShare 2Go 2.0 > Transfer WebShare 2Go 2.0 Data. 
   
3. In the Transfer WebShare 2Go 2.0 data window, click ... to browse to U:/JohnDoe/WS2Go. Select the folder and then click Transfer Data. The data transfer starts. The WebShare 2Go 2.0 system files are automatically transferred as well.
   
4. On a local computer, create a folder to contain the WebShare 2Go system files.
   For example C:\Start_WebShare2Go.
5. From the network U:\JohnDoe\WS2Go folder, copy both the Start_WebShare_2Go_2.0.bat file and the C folder to the local computer C:\Start_Webshare2Go folder.
6. From the local computer C:\Start_WebShare2Go folder, right-click on Start_WebShare_2Go_2.0.bat and click Open with. Select a .txt editor, such as Microsoft WordPad or Notepad, or navigate to one of your choice. The .bat file opens in the .txt editor. Caution: Do not use Microsoft Word to edit the .bat file. Saving the .bat file in Word corrupts it.
   • At the beginning of the second to last line, type REM. The line now appears as REM set url="%CD%\web\ws2go.html.
   • In the last line, replace %url% with this file from the network U:\JohnDoe\WS2Go\web\ws2go.html.
7. Save the .bat file on the local computer, close the .txt editor, and double-click the .bat file to launch WebShare 2Go in Chrome.
8. From WebShare 2Go you can access the scan project files in the network U:\JohnDoe\WS2Go folder.
