The Profile Wizard is similar to the Setup Wizard in that it allows you to configure parameters for a specific computer. Configuration information is stored in an INI file which can be deployed to the for the specific computer for which it was configured.
The Profile Wizard contains a series of pages allowing configuration of computer-specific settings including:
-
The role the computer has in the system network
-
The project being run
-
The CPU Configuration
-
The Plant SCADA Events enabled for each component
-
The Cicode run for each component on startup
-
The cluster configuration
-
The security settings applied.
Parameter values collected from the user through the Wizard interface are written to the <ProfileName> ini file.
Note: To use a profile, either select it locally on a computer using the Computer Setup Wizard, or use the deployment feature (see Deployment Computers). The values in the profile.ini will take precedence over the values set in the local Citect.ini. However, values that are set for the parameters [CtEdit]Run, [CtEdit]Bin, [CtEdit]Data, [CtEdit]Logs, [CtEdit]Config will be taken from the local citect.ini and not from the profile.ini.
See Run the Profile Wizard for more information.
