Follow these steps to get your webSCADA operational:
1. Do all generic Setup, like assigning an IP-address (Setup/Ethernet), add/

and set date/time etc (Setup/Regional).
2. Create a template (Configuration/Templates). A Template consists of one or
several groups, and each group is a collection of Modbus Parameters.

4. Create your Application! Now you can define your web-pages, alarms, log
entries and bindings.
