Configuring Properties |
This topic contains information about the properties available on the EnerSolis tab, including the value of offline property Strings that can be user-programmed when starting an application in Offline mode.
For E3 or Elipse Power applications, the value of these settings can also be defined at run time. To do so, select the Start driver OFFLINE option on the Setup tab of the properties window to start this Driver in Offline mode.
This Driver's configuration options are listed on the next table.
