Hi,

I want to upgade our 7.9 igntion gateway to ignition 8. Our maintenance team use the the mobile module to access the SCADA. This module is’nt available in igntion 8.  
What is an alternative to continue using the module without converting the projet to perpective in ignition 8?

Thanks,

Converting to Perspective is your only option…
