Including user programs

You can include external programs in a User Programs menu in the Supervise and Definition modules. This is done using User Programs menu.

You must install the configuration and restart the respective module (Supervise and/or Definition) in order to display the user programs in the toolbar.

Defining user programs

The external programs are included by specifying the path to the program executable and, optionally, any command line switches with which you want to start the program.

The text you want to appear in the User Programs menu can be freely defined.

Location of User program links

The user program links are placed in the program data folders for IGSS in C:\Program Data\Schneider Electric\IGSS32\V13.0.

Distributing the user programs to other configurations

The contents of the program data folders are not synchronized between IGSS servers nor are the contents considered to be part of the IGSS configuration and are not distributed to operator stations when they connect to the IGSS server.

To distribute user programs to operator stations and other IGSS servers, you must manually copy the contents of the RunDesktop folder and DefDesktop folders to all relevant configurations.

You can also run a batch job, automatically distributing the contents of the folders to the designated configurations.
