1. Define a MicroSCADA monitor in the base system as described in Section 3.5.8.
Automatically opened MicroSCADA monitors.
2. Copy a MicroSCADA Monitor program icon into the Startup folder of the user.
3. Change the target line (found by choosing the properties of the icon/program) by
setting the following flags -d for the predefined monitor and -r for retries. See the
example below.
Example:
mons -r 4 -d mycomp 4
The command opens the predefined monitor number 4 on the base system computer
mycomp. By stating retries with the -r flag the program tries again if the network
initialization has not finished when the MicroSCADA monitor is requested. The
retries are made every 5 seconds as many times stated after the flag.
If the MicroSCADA monitor requires the X-server program, the X-server should
also be started from the Startup folder.
