Compile the project and open the Power Operation Runtime
After you install the software and create the project (along with clusters, network addresses, and servers), perform your first system compile. You will also do this periodically during system setup.
It is always a good idea to "pack" before you compile. From the Projects tab of the Power Operation Studio, click Pack. Then, from the left side of the page, click Compile . Correct any issues and note any warnings.
To run the Computer Setup Wizard:
- In Power Operation Studio: Click Projects > Home, then click Setup Wizard.
- Choose Custom Setup and Multi-Process mode.
- Click Networked (instead of Stand alone.)
- Enter a "Server Password". You do not need to remember this password.
- Choose Kernel on Menu which will help with future troubleshooting.
Before opening
Configure the Application Services Host—Citect Data Platform.
To open the Power Operation runtime:
- In Power Operation Studio: Click Run the active project
.
If you are running Power Monitoring Expert as a Service, navigate to the Power Operation bin directory, and open the Service Display client shortcut.
NOTE: You can run only one instance of the runtime application at a time. When you open the Runtime Manager by running the project or clicking the Power Operation Runtime shortcut, you will not be able to view the Show Display Client (Control) shortcut. An error message appears indicating that the Plant SCADA Runtime has stopped working. You must close the other runtime instance to continue with the Service Display Client (Control) shortcut.
