Configuring Your System

Before you run your project you will need to configure each computer in your CitectSCADA system. Configuration information is stored on each machine in a Citect.ini file based on your installation, database configuration and compiled project. Configuration is done with the Computer Setup Wizard.

The Computer Setup Wizard contains a series of pages allowing configuration of the computer specific settings including:

• The role the computer has in the system network
• The project being run
• The CPU Configuration
• The CitectSCADA Events enabled for each component
• The Cicode run for each component on startup
• The cluster configuration
• The security settings applied

The wizard uses the configuration stored in the project databases to provide information to you. Selected options are written to the Citect.ini file.

The wizard needs to be run on each computer in your system to appropriately configure CitectSCADA for each particular machine. Run after compiling your project and as the last step before running the system.
