You can do simple control via the cicode
window. This allows control of remote computers by executing cicode
functions on those computers. This has the limitation that it works
from a Client to the Server or from a Server to any of its Clients.
You cannot control a client from another client. To control a
server from a client you pass ALARM, TREND, REPORT or the IOSERVER
name. eg in the Kernel CICODE ALARM will control the alarm server.
To control a client from a Server pass the Node name, eg CICODE
NODE1.
You can also do this via the MsgRPC() function in cicode. This
allows you to write more specialised operations in cicode. You can
get more complete remote control by using 3rd party remote control
software. I think PC-anywhere will allow the remote control of
computers over a LAN. These are several products on the market
which can do this.
