Access the Server Command Line Tool

To access the ClearSCADA Server Command Line Tool:

1. Open a Command Prompt window in Microsoft Windows®.
2. Use the cd command to change the directory to that in which the ClearSCADA Server Command Line Tool, SCXCmd.exe, is installed. The Tool is installed in the same directory as other ClearSCADA installation files. The default location of these files varies depending on the Windows operating system (see File Locations (Default) in the ClearSCADA Installation Guide).

   Example:

   If ClearSCADA is installed at the default location on a 64-bit machine that is running Windows 7, you would enter:

   cd c:\program files (x86)\Schneider Electric\ClearSCADA

3. Press the Enter key.
4. Run the SCXCmd.exe and display a list of commands by entering the following at the command prompt:

   SCXCmd -?

   The ClearSCADA Server Command Line Tool runs and displays a list of options and the available commands. There is a brief description of the purpose of each command. For example, the SHOWSTATE command has a description of 'Show the current server state.'.
