Mimics are stored in the ClearSCADA database as they contain hyperlinks and ‘live’ data that need to be continuously updated. In the following sections, we explain the various ways you can display a Mimic that is stored in the ClearSCADA database. For more information, see the topics that are listed in the gray footer section at the bottom of this topic. Select the relevant entry to display the topic that you require.
When you display a Mimic, it is shown in Run Mode or Design Mode, depending on the technique you used to display the Mimic, the permissions allocated to your User account, and the configuration of your User account. If you have the Configure permission for the Mimic, you can switch between Run Mode and Design Mode as required (see Run Mode and Design Mode).
