How to Start or Run the SCUSCR.exe
Program (SS5026)
The SCUSCR.exe shortcut icon should have
been installed on your WCC III front end
computer desktop with the WCC III Installation
Software CD. The WCC III Installation Software
CD is WattMaster Controls Part # DM1WC011-
01X.
To start the SCUSCR.exe program, double-click the left mouse
button on the Shortcut Icon found on the Windows desktop. After
a short period of time, dependent upon the CPU speed of your
Windows based computer and the speed of your IP connection to
the internet, the WCC III Type Connection Dialog Box will appear.
Server IP Address:
This is the static IP address of the WCC III – MCD. An IP Address
is like a phone number on the world wide web. The IP address for
the WCC III – MCD must be Static (does not change) as opposed
to Dynamic (constantly changing). This static IP address must be
provided by your internet service provider. (A static IP address
is the preferred IP connection method for the WCC III system to
function.) If you actually know the static IP address of the WCC
III – MCD that you wish to connect to, please enter it here in the
Server IP Address fi eld, or better yet, continue to the Remote Access
Dialog Window by selecting the
button.
You can use a Dynamic IP Address with the WCC III – MCD,
but you must then have what is called a static “Host Name”. This
static “Host name” must then be provided by your internet service
provider and is limited to 58 total characters.
Port Number:
The SCUSCR.exe program opens a two-way, secure
communications port that then allows for communication between
the WCC III – MCD and the SCUSCR.exe program that is running
on the WCC III Front end computer. This IP Address connection
is done on a higher address port number than normal (WCC
III connection is port number 39289) to help reduce the risk of
computer hacking.
Using your mouse, left-click on the button.
The Remote Access Dialog Window will appear.
By selecting , the SCUSCR.exe program will now start to
connect to the selected WCC III – MCD via this selected IP address
connection. It should bring up the WCC III SCUSCR Set Password
Dialog screen within a new window. If the IP address connection
fails to connect to the WCC III – MCD, then another small dialog
box window will appear. This is the Cannot Communicate to
Backtask Dialog Box.
Once you click , you will exit the SCUSCR.exe program.
You will have to fi gure out why you cannot connect to the WCC
III – MCD via the IP address connection.
In the Set Password Dialog Screen enter an “Operator:”
identifi cation and a “Code:” or password equal to at least a pass
level 0 that has been previously set up on the WCCIII System
Parameter – Operator Code Screen. (See the Operator Code
Screen of the System Parameter Screen in Section 3 for information
on setting up Operator Codes.) Click
. If the
“Current Pass Level:” stays at 0 or higher (1, 2, or 3), then click
. By selecting , the SCUSCR.exe program will now
start to connect to the selected WCC III – MCD via this selected
IP address connection. It should bring up the SCUSCR - Demo
Screen within a new window. If the “Current Pass Level:” changes
to –1 then you do not have access to the WCCIII – MCD. If you
do not have access to the WCCIII – MCD and you click
then this connection to the SCUSCR.exe program is not an actual
IP connection, but rather a “dummy” SCUSCR - demo screen
window with no values.
