Overview

Consisting of a Server and Client component, GridWorX lets you access database information through the FrameWorX server. The GridWorX client allows GENESIS64 customers to read and write data coming from or going to a supported database. ICONICS supports a number of industry standard formats including SQL, ODBC, OLEDB, SAP, and Oracle.

 

Once a Connection String is configured, users can visualize database data in the form of OPC-DA tags or through the GridWorX Viewer Control. Basic read and write actions as well as stored procedures for connected databases can be used with GridWorX.

 

GridWorX also has integrated Pack and Go support so that configurations can be packed up, transferred, and unpacked on another machine exactly as it was configured. This feature is ideal for companies with many employees using the same data and saves time since each user can share already configured files.

Differences from Desktop Versions

If you have used a desktop version of GridWorX64 (either GridWorX64 Viewer in Workbench Classic or GridWorX64 Viewer in the Workbench), you will notice that the layout and configuration options in the GridWorX64 Viewer are fairly similar. However, the GridWorX64 Viewer does differ from its desktop counterparts in several important ways. In particular, the GridWorX64 Viewer does not support:

Licensing

GridWorX Viewer is included in the GENESIS64 Application Server license.

Localization

GridWorX Viewer can display different languages by using language aliasing, although ICONICS does not provide language aliasing for connected databases.
