Disabling route to a reachable station

You can disable a particular system indexing route to a reachable station if needed.
Prerequisites:
  • You have an open connection to a properly licensed Supervisor station (via Workbench or browser)
  • The Supervisor station has established connections to subordinate stations in the NiagaraNetwork and you have discovered reachable stations (see Viewing reachable stations).
  • The Supervisor and mid-tier stations are upgraded to Niagara 4.13 or later and have enabled virtuals along the reachable station routes.
Possible use cases can be as follows:
  • You have a particular reachable station that you want to exclude from system indexing.
  • You have multiple downstream routes to a particular reachable station, and you want to always use a particular route and disable other routes instead of letting Niagara choose an optimal route on-the-fly.
Perform the following steps:
  1. To disable a route to a reachable station, on your Supervisor navigate to the station that starts the route to the target reachable station, which is to be disabled, expand SysDef and double-click Reachable Stations.

  2. Navigate to the property sheet of the reachable station for which you wish to disable the route, set Route Enabled to false and click Save.
