Considerations for special networks

If you are working on a slow network and the InTouch HMI takes a long time to start or save information, modify the win.ini settings on the NAD client:
ViewNadClearNADCopyDirectory=0
ViewNADCopyApplicationOnStartup=1
ViewNADOnApplicationChanged=3 ( or 4)
ViewNADThreadPriority=2
For the ViewNADOnApplicationChanged parameter, a setting of 3 corresponds to the Load changes into WindowViewer option on the Node Properties dialog box in the InTouch Application Manager. A setting of 4 corresponds to the Prompt user to load changes into WindowViewer option. These settings allow the application to continue to run while NAD downloads take place in parallel, on a separate execution thread.
When NAD performs an update to an application, it copies only the changed files from the NAD Repository. NAD does not copy the SmartSymbol design-time dictionary files for run-time language switching.
