Chapter 1 Installing Lookout
Lookout Operator’s Manual 1-8 www.natinst.com
Citadel Database Settings
The Citadel Database fields set the default destination for Citadel data
logged by Lookout. All processes running under a single instance of
Lookout will use this data path to log data to Citadel, unless you override
this setting when you create the process.
You set the Default path and the Default computer separately. Use the
complete path name for the Default path setting, and the fully qualified
computer name for the Default computer setting.
Virtual Keyboard Settings
Lookout features a virtual keyboard that you can access when in run mode
by clicking on a control that accepts a text or numeric input. You can set
whether a right-click or a left-click pops up this keyboard in the Virtual
Keyboard Pops Up On field in the System Options dialog box.
Log Alarms Setting
If you have a printer directly connected to your computer, you can direct
that all alarms can be printed when they occur. Set the Log alarms to box
in the System Options dialog box to the communications port to which
your printer is connected. You can also capture a network printer port on
Windows 98/95 machines. Consult your operating system documentation
for information on this procedure.
Panel Navigation Arrows
Select the Show panel navigation arrows in status bar checkbox if you
want to use panel navigation arrows. These arrows, located in the right side
of the status bar, activate control panels in the order in which you last
accessed them. This feature is most convenient when you have a large
number of control panels in a process and need to cycle through a subset of
them several times in a short period of time.
Security Level Settings
You may not have access to the security level settings. Consult your
Lookout system administrator for information on these settings,
if necessary.
