EDM V1.10 / Installation Manual 07/2011 Edition

In compatibility mode, it is still possible for an EDM Line Server to pull/push data from the Master

Server. It is not, however, possible to send notifications to the Master Server. All the notifications

which arise during compatibility mode are saved, and can be transferred to an EDM Master Server

when compatibility mode is terminated.

Gradual upgrading of individual lines is carried out as follows:

1. Interrupt production on one of the lines to be upgraded.

2. Transfer all notifications from the Line Server of this line to the Master Server.

3. Install SIPLACE Pro on the Line Server of this line.

4. Install the EDM Line Server on the Line Server of this line.

5. Resume production on this line.

6. Repeat steps 1-5 for the other lines to be upgraded.

7. Accept/reject all notifications in the Clearing Pool.

8. Shut down the Master Server.

9. Install SIPLACE Pro and the EDM Master Server on the Master Server.

CAUTION

To avoid all notifications still in the Clearing Pool from being lost, the EDM database

must not be deleted.

10. Start the Master Server.

5 Configuration

5.1 Settings in SIPLACE Pro Desk

To guarantee proper operation of SIPLACE EDM, it is necessary to change some settings in

SIPLACE Pro Desk.

● SIPLACE EDM associates objects on the Master Server and the Line Servers using their

names, i.e. an object must have the same name on all computers. It is recommended that you

suppress the ability to rename and create objects on EDM lines using the user permissions

management facilities in SIPLACE Pro.

● The Vision Data Manager (VDM) must be activated on all SIPLACE Pro Desk installations

which are to participate in EDM to allow Vision data (BLOBs), camera parameters and

illumination parameters to be processed for the line and the station.

● Some settings for SIPLACE Pro Desk (under Tools – Settings - General Settings) must be

consistent across all EDM Client computers and the EDM Master. Currently, this applies to

– "Vision Data Management" on/off (we recommend "on")

– the two options for the extended MC number range (Twin Head and CPP head)

5.2 EDM-specific settings

CAUTION

After any change has been made to the configuration files, it is recommended that all

EDM applications and the EDM service on the computers concerned should be restarted.

5.2.1 Necessary settings

The following options must generally be entered manually in the EDM Master and EDM line

configuration files after installation.

● Alias for the computer:

The EDM lines involved are assigned more readable names in this section. The aliases must

be the same on all the EDM computers. If no aliases are entered, the network IDs of the

computers are used for display purposes (see section 5.2.3.31 Aliases).

NOTICE

Aliases should always be defined for push mode.

● SIPLACE Pro lines:

The SIPLACE Pro lines for which each Line Server is responsible must be configured:

– If the EDM VDM BLOB functions are to be used (especially for the Extended Difference

Editor)

– If protection against overwriting current product data is to be activated in push mode (see

section 5.2.4.4 Protection against overwriting current production data).

Otherwise, BLOBs will be accepted for all SIPLACE Pro lines present in the local SIPLACE Pro

database (see section 5.2.3.24 Assigned SIPLACE Pro lines).

● The configuration setting

xmlImportVisionDataAdvancedAction controls the correct

overwriting of Vision data (if the EDM VDM BLOB functions are used, this entry can be

modified as described in section 5.2.3.33 Advanced vision data actions.

● Comment categories:

These categories are available for selection when entering a comment on a new notification. If

this section is empty, no categories are shown in the dialog box (see section 5.2.3.29 Comment

categories).

5.2.2 Registry

This section describes the part of configuration performed using the Windows Registry. This

includes all user-defined settings as well as all settings that need to be accessed before the

application starts. The installation program presets these with sensible values.
