What Exactly is a Startup Profile?A startup profile is a group of settings that associate a Windows user name with a specific iFIX Project Configuration. The iFIX Project Configuration includes:
When starting, iFIX checks the currently logged in Windows user name to determine if the user has a profile listed in the Startup Profile Manager. If a profile is identified, iFIX loads that profile. Otherwise, the default profile is used, if it is enabled. If a default profile does not exist, no profiles are loaded. In this case, iFIX loads the node and SCU file defined in the Local Startup Definition dialog box of the SCU application (which is the SCU file and node name defined in the Windows Registry), and there are no restrictions in the iFIX Startup dialog box, unless you changed the default iFIX Startup options in the Default Startup Profile dialog box of the Startup Profile Manager.
