The Authoring Environment (LSOAE) must be installed locally on the author’s PC. The Authoring Environment can be used online or offline. In online mode, you require a connection to the ERP system and the Content Management System. If you use it in offline mode, all data is stored in the local file system. You can choose the directory in which to store data. The data comprises course content and configuration data. You can protect this data at operating system level.

The following graphic provides an overview of the technical system landscape for the Authoring Environment.

The Authoring Environment contains a special version of the Content Player that plays course content locally that is currently being played using the Authoring Environment. Similar to the Offline Player, you cannot use this local Content Player remote. You can only call it from the PC on which it is installed.
