Place Globals.ini in the ...\Proficy\Proficy CIMPLICITY\Data directory.
Restart CIMPLICITY for the new maximum number of alarm classes to take effect.
Warning:
Do not change the globals.ini value once you have any CIMPLICITY process running. Changing the globals.ini once any CIMPLICITY process is running could cause memory corruption, or an access violation.
It is recommended that you reboot after changing the value in the globals.ini, since it is used to set up the shared memory file for the performance counters used in all the projects on a computer.
