Create an ST Program in the ClearSCADA Database

Before you can create an ST program in ClearSCADA, you need to add an ST Program item to the database. The ST Program item will store the ST code that you create.

To create an ST Program database item:

1. Display the Database Bar (see Display an Explorer Bar in the ClearSCADA Guide to ViewX and WebX Clients).
2. In the Database Bar, right-click on the system, Group, or Group Template that is to contain the ST program.
   A context sensitive menu is displayed.
3. Select the Create New option, then the Logic option, then the Structured Text Program option.
   A new ST program database item is added to the hierarchy. It is selected automatically, ready for you to define its name.

   

4. Enter a suitable name for the ST program then press the Enter key or select another part of the interface to confirm.
5. You have now created the ST program database item. To create your ST program, you will need to edit it (see Edit an ST Program).
