SPC_DB_CONNECT_TIMEOUT

For

CIMPLICITY Statistical Process Control

Project 

Purpose

To reduce  the number of milliseconds CimView will wait to connect to an SPC database (for an inserted SPC ActiveX control) before the wait times out.

Comment

SQL Express 2005 and higher require a user name and password to connect to the database. If SPC has not been configured with the correct user name and password and one or a group of CimView screens includes an SPC Control CimView will appear to be hanging for the default time (60 seconds) while trying to connect.

Do either of the following.

Enter the correct credentials in the SPC Document Properties dialog box.

Use SPC_DB_CONNECT_TIMEOUT to reduce the wait time.
