Start and stop the configuration

Once the operator station is connected to the IGSS Server, the configuration can be started and stopped as follows.

Typically controlled by the IGSS Server

Once an IGSS configuration has been commissioned, changes will typically be implemented on the IGSS Server. These changes will be automatically downloaded to the connected operator stations. On the individual operator station, IGSS can be set up to display a message when the configuration on the server is updated. Otherwise, the changes are automatically downloaded.

Start the configuration

IGSS can be set up to start a configuration in three different modes:

Manual (the operator must click Start to start data collection and subsequently Supervise to view the process)
Auto (data collection starts automatically, but the operator must click Supervise to view the process)
Supervise (data collection starts and the operator is taken straight into the Supervise program)

If you need to start the configuration manually, open the File menu and select Start Configuration.

This is the same as clicking the Start button in the IGSS Starter program.

Stop the configuration

If you need to stop the configuration manually, open the File menu and select Stop Configuration.

This is the same as clicking the Stop button in the IGSS Starter program.

Only for authorized users

Starting and stopping the configuration are seen as system commands. If access control is enabled, the current user must have the appropriate rights to start or stop the configuration.
