Wait. If it does not change, see the next two entries.

Please ask your administrator to assign you a machine

Section titled “Please ask your administrator to assign you a machine”

Hi, Alex. Please ask your administrator to assign you a machine.

What it means

Computle answered, and no workstation is assigned to your account. The screen checks again by itself and shows the workstation as soon as it is assigned.

What to do

  1. Ask your administrator to assign a workstation to you. See Assigning Workstations.
  2. Leave the screen open, or click Check again once they confirm.
  3. If a workstation was assigned and still does not appear, quote the Support Code shown to Computle support.

What you see

“Couldn’t check your machines. Computle could not be reached. Check your connection and try again.” with Try again and “If this keeps happening, quote this reference to support: [Support Code]”.
