• PVSS00NV -num N -m vision -p fwDIM/fwDim.pnl    (or PVSS00ui ...)
• Start the DIM Manager
  • either from the PVSS Console:
    • PVSS00dim -dim_dp_config DimDemoConfig -dim_dns_node dns_node
  • or from the fwDim panel:
    • From the "Edit" tab (Option: "Dim Manager")
• You can then start the DIM Server (pvss_dim_server) and/or the Dim Client (pvss_dim_client) from the <Installation Directory>/bin directory.
  Note: for Linux you have to:
  • source <Installation Directory>/bin/fwDim.csh (or fwDim.sh)
• And you will see the data point values updating as in the figure:

• In order to connect new data points to DIM services you can use the library fwDim from PVSS scripts or panels or the fwDim panel.
• In order to create your own DIM Servers and Clients or for more information about DIM please read the DIM Manual.
