For the integration to be successful, the Focal Point Server needs to be running.
Note It is recommended that you add the start command to Microsoft Windows’ Auto Start options to guarantee it is always available.
Before starting the server for the first time, there are a few configurations that must be done.
To configure Focal Point Server
1 Browse to the path you installed the add-on, and then open folder \SA-FP Gadget Dashboard\server\conf\fp\.
2 Open file fp.properties in Microsoft Notepad or another text editor.
3 Configure the database connection. The following instructions assume that you used PostgreSQL as your database and the necessary JDBC settings have already been configured. If you used a different database then comment out the PostgreSQL settings, and uncomment the appropriate JDBC entries.
With the defaults you will see the settings listed below. Review the URL and change the IP address and port number if required; also add the Administrator password that was used during PostgreSQL installation.
4 Configure the license connection. Find the entry for the license location and change the IP address and port number to match your UNICOM License Server settings.
licenseLocation=127.0.0.1:7498

a Browse to the path you installed the System Architect XT/Focal Point Gadget Dashboard add-on.
b Open folder \SA-FP Gadget Dashboard\server\.
c Select server.startup.bat, and then click Run as administrator.
