1. Support Panel Mobile
User Guide for
BlackBerry PlayBook
Ver 1.1

2. Introduction
This guide will detail the principal processes of the Support Panel Mobile for PlayBook.
Please note that Adobe AIR Runtime, available for OS 1 and higher, is required.
1. Login
The agent login process on the LiveHelp server is very simple and requires only the
following few pieces information:
Server : URL where the LiveHelp server is installed.
Path : Path to where the LiveHelp server is physically installed.
Account : Account name on the LiveHelp server.
Login : The agent username that was set up on the LiveHelp server.
Password: The password that was assigned to the agent during set up.
The connection has some special parameters which facilitate the login process and
recovery in the event that the connection to the LiveHelp server is lost.
Auto-reconnect when the connection is lost: Enabling this option allows the Support
Panel to automatically attempt to reconnect if the connection with the LiveHelp server is
lost.
Skip this dialog for the next login: This option allows the Support Panel to start the
session directly without having to first visit the home screen.
Save Password: This options allows the Support Panel to save the agent's password,
eliminating the need to enter it each time a session is initiated.
2. Dashboard
The dashboard is the main area from where all of the Support Panel Mobile options are
accessible.

3. The available options on the dashboard include a view of connected agents and visitors
browsing multiple websites, the sessions area, configuration settings, exit program, and
finally the product information screen.
3. Agents
In the agent area, all agents that are currently connected to the LiveHelp server are
visible. Please note that agents can be connected via Mobile or Desktop Support
Panel.
4. Visitors
This section displays a list of all visitors browsing your sites. It also displays the
hostname of the server through which the visitor has accessed the page, as well as time
spent browsing the site and the title of the page that the visitor is currently browsing.
Additionally, the agent may individually invite visitors to start a chat session via the
invite option that is available for each visitor.

4. 5. Sessions
The sessions area is the starting point for chats from the perspective of the agent.
From here, the agent can accept multiple chat requests, transfer chats to another agent
and even participate in multiple chats. This section is divided into the following three
areas:
Waiting: In this area, all visitors waiting for chat are displayed. From here, the agent
has the option to accept a chat request.
Online: After the operator accepts a chat request, the chat will be found in this area. To
open the agent chat window, the agent must press the chat button. A chat session can
also be transferred to another agent from here.

5. In this area, a visual alert will be displayed when new messages have been received in
one chat, even if the agent is currently participating in another, making multiple
simultaneous chats possible.
Transferred: This area displays a list of the chat sessions that have been transferred to
you by another agent. Like the Waiting area, the agent must accept the chat in order to
start a new chat session.
6. Chat
To access the chat option, press the chat button in the Online list in the sessions area.
The chat window has some of the same options as Support Panel Desktop such as:
send link, end chat session, and close chat window
Send Page: Using this option, an agent can open a page directly in the visitor's active
browser.
Send Link: With this option, an agent is able to send a link to the visitor's chat window.
End Session: This option ends the chat session with the visitor.
Close Window: This option closes the chat window.
The chat window works like any other regular chat on a PlayBook. The agent writes
messages in the bottom of the chat window and sends them to the visitor, the same way
in which a visitor sends messages to the agent. The messages that have been sent are
displayed in the upper portion of the chat window.

6. 7. Configuration
Some of the customization options of the support panel can be found in the
configuration section such as refresh rates, visual and audio alerts, and language.
Refresh: This defines the amount of time in seconds that the Support Panel reloads
data from the LiveHelp server. Keep in mind that unlike desktops, phones and tablets
have limited resources and mobile network or Wi-Fi speeds can affect the performance
of the application.
General: Audio and visual alert options are found in this area, as well as the option to
change the language of the application.
8. Change Status
This option allows the agent to change their status. Please note that if you want to end
your session and start a new one with a different account, simply select offline and after
the product disconnects reselect "online".
As in the desktop version, the available statuses are: Online, Offline, Away, BRB and
Invisible.
9. Exit
This option ends the agent session and closes Support Panel Mobile.
10. About
This option displays the version information of Support panel as well as the
ActiveHelper address
