Viewing NWare control aliases
Using RATC
You can list out all the control aliases you have assigned to controls in your NWare project.
This feature is especially useful when you have a large number of controls and you want to see
which ones have been assigned aliases.
If you are already using RATC, you can telnet to the NioNode or nControl node and issue the
command. If you are not using RATC, you will need to enable it temporarily.
To enable RATC
1. Open NWare.
2. Right-click the NioNode or nControl node on the page and then click Device Properties.
3. In the Network Control Protocol list, click RATC2.
4. On the toolbar, click the Deploy button .
Tip: If the project is very large and contains many NioNodes, you can deploy to a single
NioNode and emulate the others.
To list NWare control aliases
1. Open a telnet program and connect to the NioNode or nControl node using its IP address.
If you are using Windows XP, you can open a Command Prompt window and type telnet
<IP address> 1632 to connect to the node.
2. Press Enter.
3. Type controlList.
A list of all control aliases in the project will be displayed.
Tip: If the error message notLoggedIn is displayed, open the user properties for
defaultuser in NWare. In the Network Control Access list, click Allowed. Redeploy the
project and then refer to step 1 in this procedure.
