Start and Stop VTScada

VTScada applications are often configured to start automatically. And, in many cases, only a supervisor can stop an application.

If your situation requires you to start or stop VTScada, or your VTScada application, here's how to do it:

Start VTScada

Look for the VTScada icon on your desktop and double-click on it.

Start VTScada

If there is no icon on the desktop, you might find a link in the start menu instead:

Stop VTScada

If you stop VTScada, you will also stop all running applications.

This action is protected by a security privilege.

Start an Application

Double-click the application name in the VAM.

Or, click once on its start button.

Stop an Application

This action is protected by a security privilege.

If there is an X in the upper-right corner of the window, click that.

Or, click the Stop button in the VAM.

Only an Authorized User can Stop an Application

If you are not logged on, or if you don't have the required privilege,

then you cannot stop the application.
