Manually

The zenon Editor and the zenon Runtime are closed.

Open the Windows Explorer.
Go to the directory C:/Documents and Settings/All Users/Application Data/COPA-DATA/System.
Open the file zenOn6.ini with a text editor.
Remove the line VBF30=....

With this line, the Runtime remembers the project to be loaded when the Runtime is started. After we have removed this line, the Runtime no longer knows which project to load.

Start the Runtime (without opening the Editor).

The Runtime now asks you with a dialogbox which project to load.

Now we tell the control system, that we want to load a network project.

Activate the option Load project from Runtime server.

The dialogbox now changes and allows us to enter the necessary parameters to configure a client.

As the Runtime server, enter the server of the project.

This has to be the computer that we defined as the server in the chapter above. You either can select the server from the list opened with the button or type it in by hand.

As the Project name enter the name of the project that runs on the server.
As the Project target directory, enter a directory on the local harddisk of the client.

You either can select an existing directory from the directory structure opened with the button or type it in by hand. If you enter the directory by hand, it can even be a directory that does not exist. It will then be created automatically.

Confirm the settings with OK.

The zenon Runtime now establishes a connection to the Runtime server and copies the Runtime files from there to the project target directory. Then the Runtime starts and maybe asks you to restart it. The entry VBF30= in the file zenOn6.ini is set to the project target directory, so that the Runtime on the client from now on will automatically start our network project.

Repeat this procedure for every other client.
