Before Database Manager can open and display a database, the program establishes a connection to a SCADA server (either local or remote) on the network. It accomplishes this by prompting you to select the SCADA server to which you want to connect. Once you select the server, Database Manager establishes the connection and opens the server's current database. You can establish a connection with a different server by opening a different database. Once you select the new server you want to connect to, Database Manager disconnects from the existing server and opens the selected server's current database. NOTE: From the Database Manager, you can open databases from SCADA nodes with iFIX 3.0 or greater installed. You cannot add, modify, or delete blocks in databases from earlier versions of iFIX, such as iFIX 2.5 or FIX32. You can also disconnect from a SCADA server by closing the database. If the database has unsaved changes, Database Manager prompts you to save them before breaking the connection. See AlsoHow Do I... |
