If you have Batch Execution installed on your computer, you can configure the local node by specifying a name for the current project with the iFIX WorkSpace. In Batch Execution, a project is the entire set of files needed to deliver a batch solution. Typically, a project includes:
- Pictures
- An equipment database
- Recipes
- Configuration files
However, a project can also include Word files, Excel spreadsheets, or documents from other OLE-compliant applications.
Associated with each Batch Execution project is an actual project file. This file stores project-related information. When you specify a project in iFIX, you are selecting the project file you want to open the next time the Batch Execution Server starts. As a result, you must restart the iFIX WorkSpace and then the Batch Executon Server to load the project you specify.
