Project Information

A CX-Supervisor application can be packaged safely for authorised
distribution by creating a runtime install disk. The process copies all required
files, plus files to install to the specific directory to be used to distribute the
runtime project. These files can be on a removable Memory Stick or later burnt
to a distribution CD or even to floppy disk if the project is small enough.
Click on Create Runtime Install Disc from the Project menu. The Save
Runtime As dialog box opens ready to create an installation to the desired
folder. Refer to chapter 6, Save Runtime As for further information regarding
the Save Runtime As dialog box.
The files are not compressed. This feature does not support large projects that
need to span multiple disks.
The Runtime environment itself is not copied and must still be installed from a
legitimate source
Any ActiveX components used are not copied and should be installed on the
target machine using the supplier's instructions.
Support files used by any ActiveX control cannot be detected and are not
copied. These will need to be added manually. This includes:
• Omron OPC Client settings stored in .OPC file.
• Omron Industrial Component communication settings, stored in .MSC file.
• Any bitmaps when using Microsoft Image control.
• Any file linked to by an OLE object (objects with embedded files should be
OK).
Existing databases or those specified by dynamic connections cannot be
detected and are therefore not copied. These will need to be added manually.
Report Templates used by script cannot be detected and are therefore not
copied. These will need to be added manually.
Any User Settings files used by script (e.g. .CSV or .TXT files) cannot be
detected and are therefore not copied. These will need to be added manually.
Information may be stored concerning a project, by using the Project
Information dialog box. This dialog box may be accessed by selecting
Information from the Project menu.
CX-Supervisor displays the following dialog box:
Enter a title and any relevant details concerning the project in the Title: and
Description: fields, and click the OK button.
