# General

The General tab allows you to configure the name and version of the project that will be shown for the deployed application, and also lets you apply a password either for opening the project in Cognex Designer (with the Project Password setting) or for exiting the project from Test Mode (with the Test Mode Password setting).

The available settings are as follows:

- Project Name: Specifies the name of the application that will appear when the project is deployed.

- Project Version: Specifies the version number of the application that will appear when the project is deployed.

  Note: For more information about deployment, please see the Deploying a Cognex Designer Project topics.

- Project Password: Specifies the password that is prompted when the project is opened in the Cognex Designer Integrated Development Environment. You must confirm this password with the Confirm Password setting below the property.

- Test Mode Password: Specifies the password that is prompted when attempting to exit the project from Test Mode. You must confirm this password with the Confirm Password setting below the property.

Note:

- The configured passwords take effect once the project is saved.

- Cognex Designer shows a validation error (see below) if the Project Password and/or the Test Mode Password is repeated incorrectly in its respective Confirm Password property.
