2. Type the name of the application to be created.
3. Click OK.
The new application directory and its subdirectories are created under the \sc\apl
directory. The initialization and startup pictures and dialogs are copied into the pict
subdirectory of the new application.
Preparing applicatio ns
When preparing an application, the necessary startup and initialization files are
copied to the application directory. If application is added as described before, it is
also prepared and no further preparations are needed. However, if MicroSCADA is
updated, applications need to be prepared again to use tools properly.
To prepare an application:
1. Open the Control MicroSCADA Applications dialog.
2. Select the application to be prepared.
3. Click Base Tools.
4. Select one of the following options:
*
Full prepare - copies all the initialization files and pictures to the application
directory. The possible existing files are overwritten.
*
Limited prepare - to copy initialization files but not the APL_INIT and
APL_START pictures. Use this option if you wish to keep the existing
APL_INIT and APL_START files. For instance, if you have prepared the
application for LIB 500, you should use Limited prepare.
If LIB 500 is used, prepare the applications for LIB 500.
1. Open the Control MicroSCADA Applications dialog.
2. Select the application to be prepared.
3. Click LIB 500 and refer to the LIB 500 documentation to complete the
preparation.
Removing applications
To remove an existing application:
1. Open the Control MicroSCADA Applications dialog.
2. Select the application to be removed.
3. Click Remove to remove the selected application directory and its sub-
directories.
Using this utility physically removes the application from the SYS 600
computer file system. Therefore it is important to verify that the backup
of the application exists, in case it is required for later use.
