Platform Administration on an embedded controller

The Platform Administration views available on an embedded controller differ from those that are available on a Windows-based platform.

Figure 1. Platform Administration for a controller platform


  • User Accounts manages who can access the controller platform.

  • Advanced Options enable and disable the following properties:

    • For JACE-8000-AX: SFTP/SSH Port, Daemon Debug, and USB Backup

    • For JACE-9000: Daemon Debug

  • Configure Runtime Profiles control which modules are running at any time. Limiting the running modules can conserve memory.

  • Commissioning performs initial Niagara installation and startup in a remote controller, or when upgrading a controller.

  • Reboot restarts the platform.

  • Various data in the view (repeated in “View Details”) differ greatly from that for Windows hosts.
