Uploading and Downloading of User created Custom
Screens and BitMap Screens.
The WCC3.exe program version 2.27 and above has the ability to
additionally store the end user created Custom Screens and BitMap
Screens fi les on the WCC III – MCD. These stored fi les on the
WCC III – MCD now include the WCC3.exe generated Custom
Screens (Text Based) and BitMap screens (BMP pictures) and
the associated data fi les. By uploading or sending of fi les to the
WCC III – MCD, and by then by downloading or receiving fi les
from the WCC III – MCD, it is now possible to synchronize all of
these screens so that all of the WCC3 front end computer end users
can now see and then use all of these fi les. This makes for easier
distribution of the needed fi les for the WCC3 front end computer
end users to better create and then keep track of, or updating of
these WCC3 front end computer end user generated screen fi les.
When the WCC3 front end computer end user creates a simple
bitmap or custom text screen, these fi les are initially kept in the end
users Windows based computer under the following subdirectory
structure.
C:Program Files\WCCIII\JobName subdirectory.
(Please note that the JobName subdirectory is dependent on the
Job Name that the end user has named his jobsite on the WCC3.
exe “Access Job Site” menu on the initial Connection Dialog Box
when starting the WCC3.exe program.)
If there are more than one WCC3 front end computer end users
then this is the mechanism that should now be used to synchronize
all of the WCC3 front end computers end user created bitmap
screens and custom text screens.
These end user created bitmap screens or custom text screens are
now also can be kept in the SlideFiles subdirectory in the Backtask
subdirectory on the WCC III – MCD, if they are uploaded to the
WCC III – MCD, but please note that they are not part of the secure
nightly and monthly backup of the WCC III – MCD data that occur
automatically every night, and every month.
