• Device Descriptions - This box contains two checkbox options. The first is Extract Descriptions
From Panel . This option assigns device descriptions as they are reported from the panel instead of using
the locally defined descriptions. This description will appear in the proximity display and be displayed
when viewing the device description or properties. The second checkbox is Proximity Activated
Display . This option turns on the proximity display. The proximity display is a small box with device ID
and description information that is automatically displayed when the mouse pointer moves over or onto a
device.
• History Backup - This box contains a checkbox option labeled Automatically backup history .
This option backs up the history file to an external file named with the date, as in YYYYMMDD.HIS. This
option can be executed monthly or on a user defined day period. In addition, the time of day to execute
the backup can be defined (the default is midnight) as well the start date.
•
Number of days to keep in history following backup
- allows the user to maintain a predefined
portion of the most current data from the old history file in the new history file after the backup is executed.
The backup option is recommended. If this option is not checked, the history database will continue to
increase in size indefinitely, until it is backed up manually (See Database Management).
NOTE: This option is to be enabled for single workstation systems ONLY.
• Suppress Automatic Screen Navigation for Events - This globally disables automatic screen
navigation for new events. Manual screen navigation operates normally.
• AutoActivate Next Event After Acknowledge - By default, devices with linked files (text, picture,
sound, AVI) which are set to autoactivate for events will only do so when they are the first event to appear
in an empty New Events box. If an event is annunciated for a device and any other events are currently in
the New Events box, then any linked files will not be autoactivated.
With this option enabled, the autoactivation will be based on the acknowledge command. Once any
events in the New Events box are acknowledged, the next event will autoactivate any linked files which are
set to do so.
• Maintain Text/Picture Viewer Display Upon Event Arrival - When the text viewer is being
displayed for text linked to a device, new events will not cause the viewer to close. New events will still
autonavigate, but the text viewer will remain open.
• Pop-Up Message Box - This field sets a maximum number of messages that will be queued in the pop-
up system message box. Once the maximum number is reached, no new messages will be queued until
the current list has been acknowledged. 0 (default) = unlimited.
•
Analog History Configuration
- When Write Analog Updates to History is checked (enabled),
all analog values that are updated for devices on the screen will also be posted to history. Otherwise,
analog values for devices will only be posted to history when they are associated with an event (trouble,
alarm, etc...).
• Workstation Automation Control - When the option Automatically Take Node Control When
Created is checked, then every time a new node reports to the workstation, it will automatically assume
control of that node.
• Outbound Message Time-out - This is the amount of time that the software will continue to send an
outbound message and wait for a response. If there is no response after this time, the message is dropped
from the queue and the operator notified. The software will then move to the next outbound message.
NOTE: Each server has a time-out setting as well. Accordingly, each message
will time out on the shorter setting.
NOTE: Windows 2000 provides similar features in the operating system.
