Matrix SCADA Deployment

Introduction

Matrix SCADA deployment allows you to take your Flowcode SCADA project, and deploy it as a standalone piece of software (known as a Matrix SCADA runtime application) built on top of the Matrix SCADA runtime. You are free to distribute this resulting application to users who don't have access to Flowcode, and don't have any license. End-users are prevented from viewing the source code of your program, as well as modifying the behaviour of the flowchart. They do however, have access to various Flowcode panels of your choosing, but cannot affect any changes to components. They also cannot modify component properties unless you explicitly grant them access.

Preparing for deployment

To deploy your project, first go through your components on the Component Properties pane and select "Expose to top level" on any properties you want the end user to have access to.

You may also wish to move the cameras to their ideal position for viewing on the 2D/3D panels.

Once this is done and you are happy with the state of your Flowcode program, click on the "Deploy" button on the toolbar. Shown below.

The deployment window

If your program is free from errors, you will be greeted with the deployment configuration dialog.
