Step 10. Configure Runtime Actions

Whether or not an operator can access one or more of the tabs or even open the CIMPLICITY Trend Control Properties dialog box during runtime is under your control.

Select the Runtime Actions tab in the CIMPLICITY Trend Control Properties dialog box.

Runtime Actions options are as follows.

1 Show property pages at runtime.
2 Hide disabled property pages at runtime.
3 Pages enabled at runtime.
4 Export reference file.
1 Show property pages at runtime

Show property pages at runtime options are:

Check Allow operators to open the CIMPLICITY Trend Control Properties dialog box during runtime.
Clear Do not allow operators to open the CIMPLICITY Trend Control Properties dialog box during runtime.
Note: If you clear the check box, you have completed configuration of this tab; a runtime Popup menu item, Trend Control Properties, will be disabled; the CIMPLICITY Trend Control Properties dialog box will not open.
2 Hide disabled property pages at runtime

If Show property pages at runtime is checked, check or clear Hide disabled property pages at runtime to do the following.

Check Hides the selected tabs (pages) that are not enabled for runtime.
Clear Displays read-only tab that are not enabled for runtime.
3 Pages enabled at runtime

The Runtime Actions tab has a checkbox for each tab in the CIMPLICITY Trend Control properties dialog box.

Options for each checkbox are:

Check The tab is Read/Write during runtime.
Clear The tab is Read Only during runtime.
4 Export reference file

The Export reference file button is enabled during runtime if Runtime actions is checked in the Pages enabled at runtime box.

Important: It you are using a reference file, you need to enable at least the Runtime Actions tab so the operator can export data to the reference file.
