Station Copier

The Station Copier is one of several platform views. You use it to install a station in a remote NiagaraAX platform, as well as make a local backup copy of a remote station (copy its station database and files to your PC). You can also rename and delete stations, either locally or remotely.

You see this view even when opening a local platform connection at your Supervisor computer as well as when opening a remote Niagara host. The following figure shows the Station Copier in a platform connection to a controller.

As shown above, the Station Copier view is split into two main areas:

  • Stations on your Workbench PC (left side)
  • Remote Station on the opened JACE platform (right side)

By default, contents of the !/stations folder is shown on the Workbench (left) side. If you have station folders located elsewhere, click the folder icon for a Change Directory dialog, and point the Station Copier to that location. That alternate location is remembered the next time you access the Station Copier.
