Configure Wonderware InTouch to Access ClearSCADA Alarms

To view and manage ClearSCADA alarms from within Wonderware InTouch, you do not need to configure anything within ClearSCADA. However, you do need to do some configuration within Wonderware InTouch. You also need to install the ClearSCADA Wonderware Alarm Provider component (see Wonderware Alarm Provider Component in the ClearSCADA Guide to Installation).

In Wonderware InTouch, you need to enter the following Alarm Query string:

[Machine Name]:0\ClearSCADA![Root Area of Interest Name]

Example:

\\W7GBA0214L:0\ClearSCADA!World

For more information about entering the Alarm Query string, see the Wonderware InTouch documentation.

You also need to create one or more users within Wonderware InTouch. These users will allow you to manage any alarms generated within ClearSCADA. The username of such a user needs to match a ClearSCADA username. Any restrictions that apply to the Wonderware InTouch user are based on the privileges of the corresponding ClearSCADA user. Wonderware InTouch performs its own user validation, so user passwords can be different between Wonderware InTouch and ClearSCADA.

For more information about creating users, see the Wonderware InTouch documentation.
