Configuration

This chapter only describes the configuration options that cannot be found elsewhere in the designer.The other configuration options are described in the respective chapter, for example under “Process coupling” the configuration of process communication.

Configuration project

Project-specific settings are made under the project configuration. This configuration represents a summary of all configurations and each configuration listed there can be found again in the respective section in the designer.

Configuration of the user interface

This configuration can be found under the global configuration of the project as well as under the item “Interface” in the project tree.

Configuration Bootpage

The so called bootpage is the one that is shown as long as the services are started but no project yet loaded. The configuration is done via a html-file in the runtime-folder named “boot.hml”.You have to take care that:

• no external fonts are used which aren´t installed on the operating sytem

• no external CSS

• no external JS

• no external pictures, only inline SVGs oder Base64 encoded pictures

The file will not be loaded into the runtime automatically. This can be done with JS or this line in the html-header:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="1">

The loadtime of the runtime can be increased by this

A picture can be used as well, but has to be encoded in Base64 bevore and assigned to the src-attribute.For this, there are tools online available.

Configuration runtime

Key name	Input	Meaning
Hard copy path	Path	Path in which the hard copies of images are saved
File upload path	Path	Path that is initially opened for file uploads. Is not evaluated in the runtime
UserStorage		Determines how and where user and client-specific data is saved
Path for UserStorage		Path in which the UserStorage should be saved
Save container settings		Determines how the container settings are to be saved

Save container settings

With the “Save container settings” function, you can specifically save a container that can be changed at runtime. The various setting options have the following effects:

No:

• Saves changes in the cache

• The changes are discarded in the event of a refresh or restart

User specific:

• Saves changes to the user

• Changes are retained after a restart or refresh - with user login

• Identical setting on other devices if it is the same picture and user

• Several settings per container possible on all devices

Device specific:

• Saves changes with the participant ID

• Changes are retained after a refresh and restart

• Changes can be overwritten by anyone

• One setting per container is possible on one device i.e., different from desktop to desktop, tablet to tablet, etc.!

Both:

• Saves changes to the user with the participant ID

• Changes are retained after a restart or refresh - with user login

• The setting is saved user-specifically for each device

• Several settings per container possible on one device

Netzwork (only SCADA)

The network configuration is an image of the PROCON-WEB server network structure. The following illustration shows an example of a network constellation made up of the components of the server and two clients.

The network configuration is called up via Configuration Network in the project tree.

Here you can define which servers should be active in the project.Enter in the left table under “Number of non-dedicated participants”at least the number “one.

Areas (only SCADA)

The areas were created from the “display groups” of the 5-client-server system. The project can be divided into several logical parts via areas, like the plant structure.

Creating areas

Areas are created using the context menu. The assignment of individual clients can also be done optionally via this menu.

The areas “LOCAL” and “GLOBAL” are default areas and are available in every project.

Usage of areas

In the alarm editor under the “Area” column, the alarms can be assigned to the areas “Local”, “Global” and the areas created by the user. Each alarm is entered in the AlertServer with the PC name when it is triggered. If the alarm is assigned to the “Local” area, it can only be seen or acknowledged on the corresponding client. If the alarm is assigned to the “Global” area, it is displayed on all clients in the network regardless of its trigger computer. If the alarm belongs to a “user-defined area”, the alarm can be displayed and acknowledged on all clients in this area.

When defining groups, the global area or a “user-defined area” can also be assigned to them. Further information on the topic of groups and areas can be found under “User Management.

When defining the input in the image montage, you can also specify the area for which an input may be made. Further information on the topic of rights and areas can be found under User Management.
