Tech Notes:

This utility will transfer Locations and Parameters from Rio to WIMS.  The transfer is from one Rio Operation to one WIMS Facility.  The transfer is intended to be run once per Operation/Facility.  Locations or Parameters will not be updated.  If New Locations are added or new parameters added to a location in Rio, the utility will transfer the new data.

The Utility is based on the Interface Framework, however most of the Interface features have been removed.

  • UI
    • Configuration
      • Connection to Hach WIMS
        • Connection Information to connect to WIMS Database  Note: Oracle has not been tested yet.
      • Source Configuration
        • Rio connection information (url, user & password)
        • Proxy Server  (If needed, but not likely)
        • Rio Operations
          • Load button will load a list of all Rio Operations available to the user.  Choose from the dropdown.  List is maintained so Load is only needed if new Rio Operations have been added.
        • WIMS Facilities
          • Load button will load a list of WIMS Facilities.  Choose from the dropdown.  List is maintained so Load is only needed if new Facilities have been added.

      • Runs Utility for Operation and Facility set up in Source Configuration.

The Utility brings over the following from Rio

  • Locations
    • Transfers Locations from Rio to WIMS.
      • Maintains the structure created in Rio.
      • UD1 is set to the Rio Location TwinId.

  • Parameters

          • Don't remove or change this if the utility will be run again or you will get duplicate entries in WIMS.  This is used for two things:
