I have a configuration where 5 monitors are connected to the same server. Following the hints in:
https://support.inductiveautomation.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/89/0/launch-project-to-multiple-monitors
I managed to launch 5 times the same project on the server with 5 different startup pages, one different page for each monitor.
I select the startup page for each monitor in the client event script: there I get the value of the Monitor client variable which is set by the Native Client Launcher
thisMonitor=system.tag.read("[Client]Monitor").value
system.gui.setScreenIndex(thisMonitor)
then, based on the thisMonitor value, I show a different startup page in each monitor:
if thisMonitor==0:
system.nav.swapTo("MainPage")
elif thisMonitor==1:
system.nav.swapTo("RecipeMain")
elif thisMonitor==2:
system.nav.swapTo("MotorsPage")
What’s weird, is that the monitor index is not the same as the Windows Identify command shows. Second if I unplug a monitor and then plug it in again, monitor numbering changes and my script is no more valid.
I know this is not a problem of Ignition, but maybe someone of you has already found a solution.
Thank you in advance,
regards
