Table 4: iOS deployment 
Installation
Install the SCADA HMI Client app from the Apple Store.
How to start
Start the SCADA HMI Client app and follow the initial setup options.
Execution
On iOS, it runs natively, thus providing higher performance, enhanced security, and access to native graphical components, compared to other applications using Terminal Client, Remote Desktop, or HTML web.
Communication
Communicates with the server by calling a web service using port 80. The server must be on the same VPN or local network as the iOS device, or it can be a public IP address, as long as HTTP access is enabled.
To deploy on an iOS device:
1. From your iOS device, tap the App Store icon.
You can also go to the Apple App Store from iTunes.
2. Search for and install the SCADA HMI Client app.
3. Start the SCADA HMI Client app.
4. Enter the following information:
 
Field
Description
Host Server
IP address or name of the project server.
Port
Port 80.
Polling
Defines the refresh rate between the client and the server, expressed in quarters of a second. The default value of 1, means the client gets new data from the server every 250 ms. When connecting to servers located on the Internet or low bandwidth networks, that value should be increased. For more information, refer to the help for the app.
User
Project user name as configured in the project. The default is guest.
Password
Project password associated with the user name.
Project
Project name on the remote project server.
5. Tap Login.
The graphics and displays download, then the application starts. The application startup the first time may take a little longer than subsequent startups.
