OperationDataList

The
OperationDataList
 item lists information about all of the equipment operation sequences in the system. The
OperationDataList
 item exposes a large amount of data for each equipment operation sequence. This can cause a significant processing load on the data server,
FactoryTalk Batch
 Server, and client.
Disable the
OperationDataList
 item and the
OperationErrs
 item by adding this entry in the [CLIENT MGR DDE] section of the
batchsvr.ini
 file.
[CLIENT MGR DDE]
DisableOperationDataList=YES
If the items are disabled, the
FactoryTalk Batch
 Server does not return any data if issued a request for either of these items. If the
DisableOperationDataList
 item is set to YES, the
Alarm Summary
 and
Phase/Operation Summary
 windows in
FactoryTalk Batch View
 will not be able to display equipment operation sequence data. When using
FactoryTalk Batch View
 as the HMI, disabling this item is not recommended.
This table shows the input and output formats for this item.
