CHAPTER 7: OTHER OPERATIONS
T
his chapter explains how to save the site setup, print current operating data to a file, view the process
configuration, use the annunciator feature and exit the program.
Saving the Site Configuration to File
While you work in ProView, you may change certain system settings that are stored in your site configuration
(or .pvs) file. Examples of some of the parameters stored with your site file include remote communication
settings, passwords, and notes for your tagnames. You should save your .pvs file before closing ProView if
you make any changes to these parameters.
FYI
Remember that most operational settings, such as alarm levels, fax report numbers, datalogging
setup, PID gains, etc. are stored in the ProControl unit, not in your site file. ProView ”pulls up”
this information stored in the ProControl unit when you connect to it. There is no need to save your
site file if you only make changes to these operational settings.
To save your site configuration do the following:
1. Click on Save Site or Save Site As… in the File menu.
Or
Click on the Save File button on the toolbar.
The Save Site As dialog box appears. If you
chose File…Save Site, ProView bypasses the dialog box.
