Only these settings are used in the [ScannerDefs] section in Eiglobal.ini:

Scanner1...Scannerxx

These settings specify the scanners available in the scanner list and their properties. Just above these settings there is some commented information which is only to be edited by ReadSoft personnel. Note the format and syntax! Test the changes and make sure that all scanners appear in the list and can in fact be used.

This is what is added to eiglobal.ini in case the section gets overwritten:
