Station installation

If you have a specific station database ready to install in the SoftJACE, you can specify it at this step in the wizard. Or, simply accept the default “(Don’t transfer a station)” and click Next. (You can create a station later using the New Station Wizard, and install it using the platform’s Station Copier.)

To specify a station database to install

At the Station Installation step in the Commissioning Wizard, do the following:

  1. Click the Station drop-down control and click the name of a station database on your PC.



    Listed are station subfolders under your Workbench PC’s local !stations folder.

  2. If you select a station, the following additional selections are available:

    • New Name — Either leave at same station name as local copy, or type in a new station name.

    • START AFTER INSTALL — If enabled, the station starts after the commissioning completes.

    • AUTO-START — If enabled, the station starts every time the JACE is started.

  3. Click the Next button to continue.

    A dialog asks which station files to copy, where you can select one of the following:

    • Copy files from selected directories — Allows you to specify which subfolders under that local station that are copied. It produces a “tree” selection dialog upon Next button.

      • If you choose this, click folder controls to expand and contract as needed.

      • Selected folders appear with an “X” and unselected folders show an empty folder box.

    • Copy every file in the station directory and its subdirectory — The default, most typically used.

    • Copy only the “config.bog” station database file — Copies only the station configuration (components), and not any supporting folders/files like px files, html files, and so forth.

  4. Click the Next button for the next step, which may be either Install lexicons or Install/upgrade modules.
