Registering the FactoryTalk Transaction Manager configuration
for data collection

If you created the FactoryTalk Transaction Manager configuration on the FT Transaction
Manager tab of the configuration tool (see “Configuring FactoryTalk Transaction
Manager” on page 38)
you must register the FactoryTalk Transaction Manager
configuration for data collection. Register the FactoryTalk Transaction Manager
configuration for use with FactoryTalk Metrics through the RSBizWare Service Console.

To register the FactoryTalk Transaction Manager configuration for data collection:

1. If you closed the Service Console earlier, launch it again. Select Start > Programs >

Rockwell Software > RSBizWare > Service Console.

2. Open the Service Console, Security Services Manager, Servers, and Information

Services Manager tree items.

3. Right-click the Data Collection tree item and select Register FactoryTalk

Transaction Manager Configuration.

If you try to import the configuration where FactoryTalk Transaction Manager is not installed,
the error message “FactoryTalk Transaction Manager is not installed properly” appears.

The XML file is validated automatically by the FactoryTalk Metrics LE Configuration Tool
when the file is imported, so you do not need to validate the file before importing it to
FactoryTalk Transaction Manager. If the file is not valid, the message “Error during import to
FT Transaction Manager” appears. If there is a log file to which you can refer, the message
“Error during import to FT Transaction Manager. See details in (log file name).” appears. This
log fie is located where the XML file is located.

If you close the configuration tool before configuring the FactoryTalk Metrics tab (see
“Configuring FactoryTalk Metrics” on page 44), you will have to complete the workcells list on
the FactoryTalk Transaction Manager tab (with the appropriate area path, shortcut, structure
name, and position) again.

If you have an existing FactoryTalk Transaction Manager configuration that you have already
registered, you do not have to register that FactoryTalk Transaction Manager configuration for
data collection.
