InfoEx offers flexibility by supporting observation entry from both single and multiple computers. See Entering and submitting observations overview for details on the two modes. This document describes how an Operation administrator can specify the mode for entering and submitting observations to InfoEx for their operation.

If your operation has an active Avalanche Control or Run List Extension subscription you can access configuration options on this page. See Configuring the quick observation entry for avalanche control for more details on how to configure the avalanche control extension. See Specifying the status ratings for the run list module for more details on how to specify the status ratings for the run list extension.
