Outline - InTouch - Part 2

InTouch - Part 2 Course is a 4-day instructor-led class designed to teach advanced functionality of the Wonderware visualization module. The focus of this course is on distributed applications. Students will gain the InTouch knowledge necessary to develop networked HMI systems for their specific plant floor environment using the following features/functionality: ArchestrA Graphics Network Application Development (NAD), Indirect Tags Dynamic Reference Addressing, Remote Tagname Referencing, SuperTags I/O Failover, InTouch and Operating System Security, Distributed Alarms, Distributed History, SuiteLink, OPC, VTQ, .NET, ActiveX, Services and Internet functionality. Students will also be introduced to InTouch for Terminal Services, and on a Tablet PC, as well as a demonstration of how to view their InTouch applications over the intranet or the internet using the Wonderware Information Server web portal.

Objective: Upon completion of this course, you will be able to:

• Create client/server InTouch applications and distribute them over networks
• Use InTouch as part of the Wonderware System Platform
• Implement advanced tag strategies
• Configure I/O Failover
• Configure security
• Distribute alarms and history
• Secure InTouch Applications
• Work with ActiveX controls
