You can automatically start the Alarm Printer and open a specific file when your system starts up by using the following command in a batch file:
ALMPRT.EXE MYQUERY.ALC
Where, MYQUERY.ALC is the name of the Alarm Printer configuration file that opens. Specifying the .exe file name extension is optional.
Make sure that the batch file switches to the folder where the InTouch HMI is installed.
To prevent the loss of any query data due to a system inadvertently being shut down and restarted, you can automatically start the Alarm Printer and automatically run a specific query by running the following command from a batch file:
ALMPRT.EXE -q MYQUERY.ALC
By using the -q in the command, your query runs automatically when the system starts up.
