Export to RemoteConnect

Associated with: SCADAPack x70 Device Configuration items

Security permission required to access this pick action: Read

ClearSCADA stores the configuration settings for a SCADAPack x70 Device Configuration item, along with any SCADAPack x70 logic that has been imported into ClearSCADA for that device. In order to use this configuration and/or logic externally - specifically to export the data to SCADAPack RemoteConnect configuration software - you need to export that data in a file from ClearSCADA.

Use the Export to RemoteConnect pick action to produce a SCADAPack manifest configuration file (.rtz file), that includes configuration and/or SCADAPack x70 logic for the selected SCADAPack x70 device, ready for exporting to RemoteConnect. (SCADAPack x70 logic will only exist in ClearSCADA if that logic has already been imported into ClearSCADA from RemoteConnect - you use the Import from RemoteConnect pick action to do this.)

To generate an .rtz file with the required configuration and/or SCADAPack x70 logic for the selected SCADAPack x70 device:

1. Select the Export to Remote Connect pick action.
   The Export to RemoteConnect dialog box is displayed.

   

2. Select the browse button next to the File Name field.
   A File Name window is displayed. Its layout varies, depending on the operating system that you are running.
3. Use the window to:
   1. Define the location to which you want ClearSCADA to export the configuration and/or SCADAPack x70 logic.
   2. Specify a suitable name for the file into which ClearSCADA is to place the data, ready for export to RemoteConnect. The file will typically take the form of a SCADAPack x70 manifest configuration file (.rtz file).
   3. Select the Save button to confirm the details and close the File Name window.
4. Select the OK button for ClearSCADA to create the file and place it at the specified location.
   ClearSCADA exports the configuration and/or SCADAPack x70 logic to the specified file, at the specified location. The file is now ready to be exported to RemoteConnect (see the documentation provided with the SCADAPack RemoteConnect configuration software for information on how to do this).
