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 GE Data Collector for Wonderware and Wonderware Historian re-establish a connection after a connection loss, or when the GE Data Collector for Wonderware is started. The GE Data Collector for Wonderware 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. Refer to Configuring Recovery Time for the GE Data Collector for Wonderware.
Throttle (Milliseconds)	Frequency of Wonderware data polling. To minimize the load on the Wonderware Server, the configurable throttling option is provided by the GE Wonderware Collector. By default, GE 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. Refer to Configuring a Throttle Value.
