Collector-Specific Configuration for the Wonderware Collector

Enter the value for the Wonderware Collector-specific field parameters:


Field	Description
Server Name	Wonderware Server InSQL Database Server name.
User Name	Wonderware Server InSQL Database User name, for example, wwUser.
Password	Wonderware Server InSQL Database password, for example, XXXXXX.
Recovery Time (hours)	Recovery logic is activated when the Wonderware Collector and Wonderware Historian re-establish a connection after a connection loss, or when the Wonderware Collector is started. The Wonderware Collector attempts to recover all data samples between the current time and the last known write time, up to a maximum number of hours configured for the collector. Continuous collection resumes only after the previous data has been recovered. Note: The default recovery time is 0 hours.
Throttle (Milliseconds)	Frequency of Wonderware data polling. To minimize the load on the Wonderware Server, the configurable throttling option is provided by the Wonderware Collector. By default, the Wonderware Collector tries to query the tag data every 100 milliseconds based on the collection interval time. You can change this value to any time between 100 milliseconds to 16 hours. Note: If Throttle field is blank, enter the required minimum value of 100 milliseconds.
