Desigo CC
Client Options
Desigo CC supports multiple client options for applications ranging from casual users to dedicated mission-critical console installations.
All client options are built around the same usability standards and capabilities making it easy to switch between different client options
without needing to learn multiple interfaces.
User privileges can be assigned to users and to workstations, allowing users to be granted the same access from everywhere or different
access depending where they’re logged on.
Installed Client
The Installed Client is designed for mission-critical applications, such as fire safety monitoring or critical process control, where users are
focused entirely on monitoring and managing building systems. In this configuration, software components used for Event Management
are locked in place and cannot be moved or covered by other applications; this ensures that critical events are never missed
or hidden. Installed Clients can optionally be configured to run in a Closed mode where only
Desigo CC and other specifically identified applications are allowed to run. In Closed mode, the workstation is dedicated to running Desi-
go CC, with access to the Start Menu or other operating system and customer applications available only to administrative users.
Web Client (Browser Client)
This type of client is deployed on the Intranet with full trust and allows access to local resources. The system runs in the Internet Explorer
Browser (using HTTP as communication protocol) and is downloaded on demand each time the user launches the system as Web applica-
tion. When working in a browser, you can have the same capabilities as those working on an Installed Client, or can be restricted to have
different access when connected remotely.
As Web Clients require low latency and high network bandwidth, these are appropriate for Intranet application. Not recommended for
Internet use.
Windows App Client (ClickOnce)
The Desigo CC Windows App Client looks like the standard system software, but is a light application that can be downloaded from the
Desigo CC server when connecting through a browser. When the Windows App Client is downloaded, it runs like any other Windows
application on the desktop. It can be launched from the Start Menu, desktop icon, Quick-launch toolbar, and so on. This deployment
does not require administrative privileges.
The Windows App Client runs in its own pane, without the overhead of the Internet browser application and menus.
Each time the user launches Desigo CC as Windows App Client, a search for system updates is performed. If a new version of the system
is available on the Web Server, the user can choose to update it or continue to use the current version.
