The VMX300(-E) server can be launched in run mode or configuration mode. Configuration mode has a user interface that allows you to configure 
any type of object, including the following objects:

 

Users

 

Maps

 

Devices

 

Scripts

 

Alarms and events

To launch the VMX300(-E) server in configuration mode, a user must have permission to configure the software. Refer to 

 

 for more information.

Run mode has no user interface. When the VMX300(-E) server is in run mode, the server application is moved to the Windows system tray, where 
it continues to run in the background. The server must be in run mode for clients to connect to it. 

Run mode has a pop-up menu that is opened by right-clicking the VMX300(-E) icon in the Windows system tray. The menu has the options listed 
in Table A.

 

Options for Run Mode

 

 When you change the server configuration, most changes do not come into effect until after the configuration has been 

saved. Only changes to device drivers and devices come into effect immediately, with the exception of a device’s local settings, which come into 
effect after the configuration is saved. Refer to 

 

 for information on local settings.

To save the server configuration, select File > Save or exit configuration mode and say Yes when asked whether you want to save the 
configuration. The server will verify that all scripts and expressions are valid before saving. Operators logged in to the VMX300(-E) client will be 
momentarily interrupted while the configuration is being saved. After the interruption, operators will see the new configuration.

If one or more scripts or expressions contain errors, the server displays an error message and gives you the opportunity to make corrections. 
Refer to 

 

 for instructions on using the Scripts and Expressions Verification tools to make 

corrections.

Scripts and expressions are also verified when you launch the server. If there are any errors, you do not have the option to launch the server in 
run mode. You are automatically presented with the login dialog box for configuration mode.

changes you made to the configuration will be lost, except for changes to device drivers and devices.
