You have Swyx VisualGroups or Swyx VisualContacts not installed on SwyxServer and would like to access the services via RemoteConnector.
*For SwyxWare versions prior to 13.30, the configuration is done via registry key. This is described here: https://service.swyx.net/hc/en-gb/articles/360017729619-Access-VisualGroups-and-VisualContacts-which-are-installed-on-a-seperate-server-via-Remote-Connector
