Communicating with the FactoryTalk Batch Server

When RSBizWare BatchCampaign is communicating with a FactoryTalk Batch Server, a
computer icon (as shown below) is present next to the name of the computer hosting the
FactoryTalk Batch Server.

When the BatchCampaign application loses communication with a FactoryTalk Batch
Server, a circle with a line through it (as shown below) appears over the computer icon
next to the name of the computer hosting the FactoryTalk Batch Server.

When communication to a server is lost, all of the campaign information associated with
that server is no longer displayed. The detection of communication loss is dependent upon
the “Scan Rate” and “Time Out” configured for that FactoryTalk Batch Server. If
BatchCampaign does not receive information in the specified “Time Out” time on its
scheduled scan period, then it indicates that communication has been lost.

When communication between the FactoryTalk Batch Server and BatchCampaign is
restored, the user interface again indicates good communication status.
