the start of SAC processing to allow the server enough time to retrieve all initial updates before the iFIX client requests
data from the server. For more information on the specific iFIX version, refer to the iFIX documentation.
4. Next, restart both the iFIX application and the server. This should put the changes into effect.
For new projects (or when adding additional items to an existing iFIX Database) users do not need to perform the steps
described above. Upon adding an item to the database, the server validates the item; if valid, the server will add the
item to the configuration file described above.
Project Properties
The Project Properties dialog is used to attach a title and comment to a project for reference. Although the Title field
supports a string of up 64 characters, the Comments field has no practical limit. Limiting the comment to the area
available within the comment box, however, will improve project load time.
OPC Settings Options
This server supports the OPC Foundation's Data Access Specifications for 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 simultaneously. While this
provides the utmost level of compatibility, there may be times when forcing the server to use one method over another
is necessary. The OPC Options dialog is used to make these selections.
