===== General rules for optimizing your projects ===== | ===== General rules for optimizing your projects ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | At the time when the WebHMI was invented, it supposed to be used in relatively small projects. But with time, more and more customers installed them for quite big projects. Also, the functionality of the front-end part has been increasing constantly, so that when you're going to use it in the project with thousands of tags with the device fw above 3.5, you should remember about finite platform resources you have. | ||
+ | Below there are several considerations you may follow to keep you project fast and responsive: | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | === Keep the number of registers in the project below 2-3K === | ||
+ | Each register in the project has a lot of configuration data associsted with it, the bigger the register tree, the more load will lay upon the system. That may slow down the response when you work with the register tree. Organize your register tree in categorites. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Vizialization === | ||
+ | |||
+ | -Use screens wherever is possible for visualisation, | ||
+ | -Avoid using bulky dashboards (too rich in elements, having heavy-weight pictures etc. ), " | ||
+ | -Set appropriate screen refresh time. | ||
+ | -use templates for dashboards, alerts and others | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Scripting === | ||
+ | -Avoid using many scripts. The better way is using a few big scripts or scripts with libraries | ||
+ | -Run scripts upon changing value, minimize the number of scripts, running in each scan. | ||
+ | -Minimize " | ||

end | end | ||
end | end | ||
</ | </ | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Connections === | ||
+ | -Use group registers feature | ||
+ | -Set appropriate timeout and tries in external connections | ||
+ | -Organize and set different reading intervals for variables. E.g. for device settings (like PID coeficitens, | ||
+ | -For mulitple external devices, you can use " | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Project editing === | ||
+ | |||
+ | -Keep the number of open tabs in browser minimal for the current session. If you need multiple tabs, use auto-close session checkbox to prevent unattended access. | ||
+ | -Avoid making multiple changes in series, like turning OFF-ON many regs, connection, scripts etc. Use save & apply feature of the latest fw. (apply all changes at once, instead of creating a queue for changes) | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Track Load Average parameter === | ||
+ | There is a metric register in the internal register showing mean number of the processes in the queue relative to the running process. There are 1, 5, 15 minutes mean paratemer. In a steady state, you 15 minutes metric should be below 1. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Optimize log=== | ||
+ | -Minimize logging many registers to DB, set appropriate log speed for them. When setting 'use data from log' for the graphs, make sure you limit the log amount with the setting. | ||
