[Client]WaitForConnectAtStartup

This is a Boolean parameter that specifies whether the client will wait until it can establish a connection to the server processes before starting up.

Allowable Values: 0 or 1.

Default Value: For a new installation of CitectSCADA v7, the parameter exists in the citect.ini file with a default setting of 0. For an existing installation that is being upgraded to v7, and the parameter is absent from this section of the citect.ini file, the application behaves as if the parameter existed and set to 1.

If the parameter is set to False (0), there is no delay and the client will attempt to connect in the background as CitectSCADA runtime starts up. If the parameter is set to True (1), the client will wait until it can establish a connection to the server processes before starting up.
