Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

When project is created (screens, servers, tags, scripts and users), the project can be loaded on the mobile device or other PC. First, the corresponding TeslaSCADA Runtime mobile app on the Android device or PC apps on the Windows, Linux or MAC OS should be installed and started.

If the app has been installed on the mobile device or PC, there are 2 ways to load the project to the device:

1. Network method.

2. Manual method.

 

Network method

Start the PC on which TeslaSCADA IDE is installed, and also start the mobile device or PC on which TeslaSCADA Runtime is installed, the devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network.

Procedure:

1. Enable WiFi on your mobile device or PC where TeslaSCADA Runtime is installed .

2. Start the TeslaSCADA2 Runtime app.

3. Open in the editor TeslaSCADA2 IDE the desired project to be transferred and select the menu item File->Load on Device.

4. The dialog "Load on Device" opens and it will search for mobile devices with the active TeslaSCADA2 Runtime. You can start a broadcast search and browse the entire network. However, since some routers do not forward broadcasts, there is also the possibility of a specific device search on the IP address.  This search takes normally 5-10s. In individual cases it may happen that this search can take to 3 minutes.  If you can’t find a device you can try to restart "Load on Device" dialog and TeslaSCADA2 Runtime application:

loadondevice

 

5. After a successful search in this dialog box all found mobile devices with active TeslaSCADA Runtime app will be shown.

6. Now select the desired target device and press the Load on Device button.

7. After a successful transfer, the target device with TeslaSCADA2 Runtime loads new project.

 

Manual method

Another way to load a project on the mobile device is a file explorer such as: the Android File Transfer. Once the TeslaSCADA Runtime installed mobile app and once started on the sd card, a folder called Android/dat/tesla.scada2.android/files/Projects is created.

Now the project, which is stored in a file with the .tsp2 extension from Windows, Linux or MacOS, can be manually copied to the SD card folder of the mobile device on which TeslaSCADA Runtime is installed. Now the project can be loaded manually by clicking the Open button on the TeslaSCADA Runtime main menu. Similarly, you can perform the above steps on a PC where TeslaSCADA Runtime is installed by copying the project file. You can use a local network, a flash drive, or any other portable storage device.
