ATR CustomTools Data Vault

The ATR CustomTools Server options are used to manage the ATR CustomTools database connection.

ATR CustomTools databases themselves are managed with the ATR CustomTools Administration Tool but the server connection settings could be changed also in the SOLIDWORKS Add-In and, in the ATR CustomTools Viewer by using the Server feature.

By default, the ATR CustomTools database have a user called Admin that does not have a password defined. You can set the desired password for the Admin user later to improve the information security of your ATR CustomTools database.

The tree view shows the ATR CustomTools databases which are registered and located in the current database server:
