To execute a Logic program manually, users select the Execute action from the context-sensitive menu for the Logic program database item. The availability of the Execute action is dependent on the permissions of the user’s User account and the configuration of the Logic program—if the Logic program’s Allow Manual Execution setting is selected, the Execute action is available; if the Allow Manual Execution setting is de-selected, the Execute action is unavailable, even if the user has sufficient permissions to access the actions for the program.
Being able to control the availability of the Execute action is useful as it means you can create Logic programs that can only be executed by ClearSCADA, either as a response to input changes or on a timed basis.
To define whether a Logic program can be executed manually, display the Logic Program Form, select the Logic tab, then either:
- Check the Allow Manual Execution check box to make the Execute action available on the context-sensitive menu for the Logic program.
Or
- Clear the Allow Manual Execution check box to make the Execute action unavailable on the context-sensitive menu for the Logic program.
