ePS Network Services, Function Manual (FH) - Release 08/2008
Teleservice session type
By selecting a session type, the administrator can define the functions that can be
used in a teleservice session for the entire organization.
To find out which functions are permitted in each session type, see the description
in /R3/.
PLC performance index
The PLC performance index allows you to define how much performance may be
used for the ePS PLC trigger. Each ePS PLC trigger uses a certain number of per-
formance points. In this way you can control to what extent the PLC may be occu-
pied by the ePS PLC trigger. The PLC performance index has to be defined indi-
vidually by the machine manufacturer.
Block new configuration
This function serves to only release new ePS server versions for all machines after
they have been tested on single machines. For this purpose, this function allows
you to switch all machines from "ONLINE" to "STANDBY" synchronization mode, in
order to temporarily prevent any changes at the ePS client scripts by means of new
ePS server versions.
Note
"Standby" causes the machine to synchronize regularly and check whether there
is an online request. No ePS client jobs will be started or completed, and also no
restart of the job machine will be performed due to changed scripts.
Notice
When restarting the machine, it will in any case get the new boot script from the
server, regardless of these settings. Thereafter, also the new scripts will be
started.
