If you created your project by selecting the Create project based on starter project checkbox in the New Project dialog, pages of Alarm, Summary, Disabled, Hardware, ProcessAnalyst and !ProcessAnalystPopup will already be created in your new project. See Creating a new project.
If you created your project from scratch, there are no predefined pages in your project. The navigation controls on the tab template expect several default pages that being exist in your project for basic functionality such as alarm and trend displays. You are recommended to add the following pages to your project based on the provided templates of your chosen size:
Template | Description |
---|---|
SinglePA or DoublePA |
Process Analyst page for displaying trends. |
!PopPA |
Process Analyst pop-up page. |
Alarm |
Active Alarms page, called from the Alarms toolbar. |
Hardware |
Hardware Alarms page, called from the Alarms toolbar. |
Disabled |
Disabled Alarms page, called from the Alarms toolbar. |
Summary |
Alarms Summary page, called from the Alarms toolbar. |
The links between the pages listed and the controls that call them are defined by the [Page] parameter settings within the Citect.ini file. The relevant parameters are [Page]ProcessAnalystPage, [Page]ProcessAnalystPopupPage, [Page]AlarmPage and [Page]HardwarePage, etc. If you want a button to call a page with a different name, adjust these parameter settings.
