How to install iPECS UCE Desktop (Windows)

A guide to installing the iPECS UCE application on your Windows device.

Here is a quick guide summarising how you can make necessary changes to the UCE Windows app settings, letting you use the app successfully on your PC.

Firstly, download the Windows UCE app file when you receive it from your service provider, then right-click and extract the contents of the zip file.

Double-click on the unzipped iPECS UCE for Windows file to launch the app install. Now you’ll see an installation window appear. Click on the install button and, if prompted, confirm the user access control changes box.

You’ll now see the iPECS UCE Setup Wizard. Click ‘next’, then ‘next’ again to finalise the install. Once completed, click close.

From the Windows search bar, type ‘UCE’ and double click on the application icon. The app will now launch, and you will be greeted with the main login screen.

To login to UCE on your desktop, you need a server IP address. Click Settings > General > Server, and you can then enter the IP address into the Server field. If you don’t know your IP address, contact your service provider. Leave the port number as default: 5222. Click ‘OK’.

Then, enter your user ID and password, which can be created on the iPECS Customer Manager Portal. If you don’t have this, contact your service provider.

You can toggle auto-login if you wish.
