About Remote Project Configuration

If, when a project starts, the Point Bridge or Point Data Logger need to get points from projects on other computers running CIMPLICITY projects, you need to define remote projects.

If your computer is on a network with other CIMPLICITY computers, you can retrieve point information from projects running on the other computers in a variety of ways.

You can:

  • Display CimView screens for other projects.
  • Display points from other computers on CimView screens running in your project.
  • Collect data from points in projects on other computers.
  • Log points from projects on other computers if you are using the Database Logger option.

Remote Projects must be defined if Point Bridge or the Point Data Logger need to get point values from projects on other computers that run CIMPLICITY projects.

  1. Configure a remote project.
  2. Configure Point Bridge Points.
  3. Configure Advanced Point Bridge and Enterprise Server Information.
