workbench-KioskService

workbench-KioskService is used to enable the Kiosk mode. Kiosk mode provides a way to run aWorkbench station so that it fulfills many of the needs of a stand-alone operator workstation as well as many needs of a touchscreen interface. In order to automatically start Kiosk mode, you must have a locally connected display.

Note: The Kiosk profile is not invoked or displayed by remote browser clients. You cannot use a remote computer with a touchscreen and expect to get the same Kiosk interface.

This component is located in the Workbench palette. To set a station to Kiosk mode, add the service to the station's Services container and set the enabled property to true. While Kiosk mode is not limited to touchscreen applications, it does provide advantages that make it well suited for use in a touchscreen application.
