To configure proxy server settings
If your organization uses a proxy server for external connections, then to view data from external databases such as OMIM or LOVD in Geneticist Assistant, you must configure the settings for the proxy server.
1. On the Geneticist Assistant main menu, click File > Settings
The Settings dialog box opens. The General tab is the open tab. By default, the Proxy Type is set to No Proxy.
2. On the Type dropdown list, select the proxy type.
3. In the Proxy pane, configure your proxy server settings.
| If you selected DefaultProxy for Type, then the proxy settings for Internet Explorer are used for the connection and you can leave all other proxy settings blank. |
4. If you are done specifying your settings, then click OK to close the Settings dialog box and return to the Geneticist Assistant main window; otherwise, continue to add and/or edit the information on any this tab or any of the other tabs as appropriate.
