Installing SmartMAP on Windows

To install SmartMAP on a Windows device, a security certificate must be generated and then downloaded to the device. As of May 2020, APX SmartMAP uses SmartView certificates for authentication, so a SmartView certificate will need to be installed to use SmartMAP.

Note: SmartMAP certificates are generated by APX. Please contact APX if you require certificates to be generated.

For Windows PCs or tablets using either Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox, the certificate will have to be installed using the browser's own import process. For devices using Microsoft Edge, the system level Certificate Import Wizard can be used.

Note: APX recommends using Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox for using SmartMAP on Windows devices. While Microsoft Edge is supported, it may not perform at optimal levels.

SmartMAP certificates are password protected. This password must be entered during certificate installation, and is provided to you by APX.

Uninstalling a SmartMAP Certificate

The procedure for uninstalling a SmartMAP certificate is similar to the installation process.

For Windows devices using Chrome or Edge, the certificate can be removed using the system-level Manage User Certificates tool, located in the Windows Control Panel. For Windows devices using Firefox, certificates can be removed using the browser's Certificate Manager, accessible within the browser settings under Security.
