Building a Connection
The Host Name field specifies the Player network host name or IP address. The Username and Password field
specify the credentials for iCOMPEL defined user. All fields must be specified.
Limiting the number of records written
The maximum number of records processed and written (not retrieved) is controlled by the limit setting.
Typically this would be enabled in the following conditions:
To restrict the number of records written to the output, particularly where it was only possible or relevant to
display a small number.
Where there was a performance penalty or network bandwidth concern when copying large numbers of results.
To use this setting, check the Enable limit option, and specify a number greater than zero in the limit count entry.
Note for performance reasons it's recommended the limit setting is enabled when using Text file output, and there
ARE more than a couple of columns or where the output is written to more than a few iCOMPEL's.
Note for performance reasons, the included graph media is capable of displaying up to 75 records.
2.4.6 Applying a Player DATA IN license
With specific iCompel Data Engine licensing options, you will need to install additional licenses on the iCOMPEL
(iCOMPEL) and may require specific minimum iCOMPEL firmware version.
If licensing is required but not installed, then an error message, such as shown below, will be displayed clearly
indicating the cause and resolution.
