NetDDE requirementsNetDDE requirements
Network DDE system service – started ( automatic startup )
NetBIOS over TCP/IP enabled PC’s must be in the same Workgroup, Domain Users must have the same local accounts on both
PCs (names and passwords) Users must have the rights to log on locally,
access the PC from the network! Network DDE restart needed after manipulation
with accounts, passwords, security parameters,..

Easy application developmentEasy application development
Predefined functionality Drag and drop, point and click rapid application

entered Import from text files = low development and service costs
AdaptabilityAdaptability Different customers - different needs
– 90 % - standard, predefined functionality– 10 % - special requirements
AlViS– User definable graphical objects ( symbols, plans)– User definable texts (symbol, operator instructions, event protocol texts,
print texts …)– Symbol behavior– AlViS behavior
