1.3.1.1.1. Online help used by default

By default, the current web help belonging to the installation is always used (call via F1). This means that you automatically benefit from any subsequent improvements.

If, for example, you do not have Internet access, you have the option of switching to using local help.

Proceed as follows:

  1. As by default no help files have been installed on the AppServer or on clients under $CADENAS/proghelp, you must download them.

    To do this, go to webapi.partcommunity.com/service/help/12.9/download.

  2. Download the files by clicking on the individual links.

  3. Copy the files from the download directory to the desired $CADENAS/proghelp (AppServer and all clients, if applicable).

  4. Go to the AppServer (or in the case of a single-user installation on the stand-alone workstation) and open PARTadmin in Category "Configuration Files [Configuration files]" under $CADENAS_SETUP Configuration file helpsystem.cfg.

  5. Set the desired value in the mode key.

    The desired help files must be downloaded and stored on the AppServer under $CADENAS/proghelp.

    2The desired help files must be downloaded and stored in the respective $CADENAS/proghelp (clients and AppServer).

    -> All clients and the AppServer use the help stored in their own $CADENAS/proghelp.

  6. Once the help has been used, a "help" directory is created in $CADENAS_USER.

    This directory must be deleted during conversions.
