The CitectSCADA window property options allow you to control an operator's access to system features.

This allows for flexibility with system security at run time.

Description

CitectSCADA configuration environment on menu

Allows the operator to use the control menu (top left-hand icon) to access the Citect Editor, Project Editor, Graphics Builder, and Cicode Editor from CitectSCADA at run time. Disabling this provides better security.

FullScreen Allows the operator to set whether pages will be displayed in fullscreen or restored state. When checked “FullScreen” will set the ini parameter [Animator]FullScreen to 1. If “FullScreen” is set.
Show title bar

Allows the operator to set whether pages will be displayed in fullscreen mode with the title bar. The [Animator]FullScreen ini parameter is set as follows: 0 if “Fullscreen” is unchecked; 1 if “Fullscreen” is checked and “Show title bar” is unchecked; 2 if both “Fullscreen” and “Show title bar” are checked.

“Show title bar” cannot be modified if the option“Fullscreen” is unselected.

Shutdown on menu

Kernel on menu

Allows the operator to use the control menu (top left icon) to display the CitectSCADA Kernel at run time. Disabling this provides better security.
