Topic 1.1.2: Galaxy Types

1. Standard Galaxy Type Cab Files

The following standard files for creating a Galaxy are included with Application Server:

  • Base_InTouch.cab: Use for creating an InTouch HMI Galaxy.
  • Default.cab: Use for creating a new Galaxy. See the next section for details.
  • Default_EMPTY.cab: Use to create a baseline Galaxy that contains only base template objects. It is intended primarily as a recovery mechanism for recreating a damaged Galaxy. After creating the baseline, you can import existing objects from aaPKG files.
  • Reactor_Demo_InTouch.cab: Same as Base_InTouch.cab, but includes a demonstration runtime application.

2. Default Starter Cab File

  • A Galaxy starter cab file named Default.cab is provided.
  • It is the recommended starting point for creating a new Galaxy intended for InTouch OMI ViewApps.
  • This starter cab file follows the ISA106 standard for the physical model, which organizes physical equipment in a hierarchy from the enterprise level down to an individual device.
  • Refer to the ISA web site at www.isa.org for more information about this standard.
