The following table lists the available command-line parameters:

`fullscreen` or `fs`	Will directly switch to full-screen mode. Make sure to select a device as well and configure it for live acquisition. Example: `ImpactControlCenter device=VD000001 live=1 fullscreen=1`
`device` or `d`	Will directly open a device with a particular serial number. '' can be used as a wildcard, just `` will take the first device. Example: `d=GX000735`
`qsw`	Will forcefully hide or show the Quick Setup Wizard, regardless of the default settings. Example (Quick Setup Wizard will be shown): `qsw=1`
`interfaceConfiguration`	Will directly launch the interface configuration and driver information dialog. Example: `interfaceConfiguration=1`

`allowFullDeviceFileAccess`	Grants full access to files which are hidden by default (such as the device firmware) through the file up- and download wizard. Be sure you know what you are doing when using this parameter. You might damage your device! Example: `allowFullDeviceFileAccess=1`

To open an image file from hard disk just pass the full path to the image as a command-line parameter.

Examples

ImpactControlCenter d=* fulltree=1 qsw=0

This will start the first available device, will hide the Quick Setup Wizard and will display the complete property tree.

Note: Pressing F1 after the application is running will also display a detailed list of available command line options as well as keyboard shortcuts and some other helping text!
