Components
The server implements a client-server architecture. The application components include Configuration, Runtime, Administration, and Event Log.
Configuration
The Configuration is the client-user interface that is used to modify the runtime project. The Configuration can be launched by multiple users and supports remote Runtime configuration.
CSV Import and Export
This server supports the import and export of tag data in a Comma Separated Variable (CSV) file. When using CSV import and export, tags are created quickly in the desired application. For more information, refer to CSV Import and Export.
Runtime
The Runtime is the server component that starts as a service by default. Clients can connect to the runtime remotely or locally.
Administration
The Administration is used to view and/or modify settings and launch applications that pertain to user management and the server. By default, the Administration is started and sent to the System Tray when a user account logs onto the operating system.
Project
The Project file contains the channel, device, and tag definitions as well as preferences and other saved settings. For more information, refer to Designing a Project.
Event Log
The Event Log service collects information, warning, error, and security events. These events are sent to the Configuration's Event Log window for viewing. For more information, refer to What is the Event Log?
