Connect the RCO Runtime User Interface
In order to launch the RCO Runtime User Interface, there must be an RCO project
running with active control sites. The interface is used specifically for viewing RCO
runtime data and for performing certain control functions. As always, there is enormous
flexibility in launching the interface as you can launch it from a Profile file, from the
RCO Runtime User Interface icon or from a Command line. All of the options are
explained in detail in the next sections.
It is important to note that in order to access the Configuration dialog to create new
profiles, the /config switch is needed in the Command line. The command looks like
the following: C:\rco_ui /config <profile file>, where C is the drive where
the RCO UI is stored.
You can connect to the RCO_UI using the following options:
Option 1. Connect to local project
Option 2. Connect to projects in an existing RCO profile
Option 3. Connect to project from the command line
Option 4. Connect to the Configuration dialog
Caution: When upgrading your CIMPLICITY software, you must upgrade your RCO
projects or you may not be able to access the RCO Runtime User Interface. See
"Upgrading RCO Projects," in the "Configuring Routing Control Objects" chapter for
instructions.
