Scope
This document covers how to find the NfRemote settings and share them with other users. This applies to the NfRemote software application for Omnia.9, Omnia.9sg, Omnia.7 and Telos Z/IPStream 9X/2.
Description/Problem
Q: Is there a config file for NfRemote somewhere in Windows that can be shared among many people to give all of them the info entered in an NfRemote instance? We need to get a bunch of PCs configured with all of the IPs and addresses and hopefully the same initial display setup.
Solution
A: Yes there is!
The connection database is in the registry.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\NfRemote
It’s the “Data” binary value.
You can export it from regedit, and import it on another machine by double-clicking on the REG file.
Before sharing, we recommend opening it in notepad and deleting the “Installed”, “Path” and “Timestamp” values, leaving only the “Data” value so that these system-specific keys don’t get imported into other systems.
As for the display configurations, you’ll find them in:
c:\Users\user\AppData\Local\NfRemote\
There is one ini file per unit you connect to, per instance.
For example, connecting to an Omnia.9 with serial number 99901, the file name will be:
Omnia.9 - OMNIA9-99901 - Remote (1).ini
If you start another NfRemote instance in parallel, it’ll be
Omnia.9 - OMNIA9-99901 - Remote (2).ini
There are several command-line parameters available, most of them are listed in:
c:\Users\user\AppData\Local\NfRemote\NfRemote.txt
