There are problems you may encounter when
using the Citect time server, the time server is enabled by setting
[Time]Server=1 in the Citect.INI file or through CtNode. You would
only have the Time Server enabled if you are using a networked
Citect system. The problem may show up in different ways. 1. Some
functions that have Sleep() may sleep for ever. 2. The time on some
nodes may get set to a time that is a few hours out. 3. If you are
using sleep on your startup screen, eg. ENTRY COMMAND:
Sleep(4);PageGoto("Menu") then you might find that sometimes the
system will stay on the Startup page forever. 4. You may also
experience problems with trend redundancy, if a trend server is
restarted it may have problems with its data files after the
redundancy data exchange with the other trend server. |
