I’ve never seen this stuff before! What’s
Wonderware InTouch? What are
“Wizards”? Refer to the documentation that came with your
Wonderware InTouch package. Start with the
introduction and tutorial sections, which will teach you
about Wonderware InTouch and how to use it to create
custom applications. When you understand what wizards
are and how to use them, come back here.

where to go after that.
I’m familiar with Wonderware InTouch
and I’d like to build a custom application
for some GE power management devices. Go to Chapter 1 for installation instructions, then to
Chapter 2 for descriptions of the wizards and how to use
them. Chapter 4 provides a demo of actual application
development. This package contains wizards for the
power management devices supported by GE’s PMCS

The GE PMCS Wizards are already
installed on my system, I’m already
experienced with InTouch, and I’m ready
to start building custom applications. Turn to Chapter 2 for information on how to use the GE
PMCS Wizards, and Chapter 4 for a quick example of
application development. For detailed descriptions of
the Large Faceplate wizards or the Tabular Data Screen
wizards, refer to Chapters 5 and 6 respectively.
Just tell me about the wizards; I’m an old
pro and ready to go! Skim through Chapters 2 and 3 for an overview of
what’s in the package, then Chapter 4 for a quick
example of application development. Chapter 5
describes the GE Large Faceplate wizards and Chapter 6
the associated Tabular Data Screen wizards.
