Project Tree
Project Tree
The Project Tree is the main navigation panel where all components of your SCADA project are organized in a hierarchical structure. It is located on the left side of the interface.
From here, you can access every element of your project (databases, tags, screens, scripts, etc.), add new items (New), or edit and delete existing ones.
Below is a description of each main section in the Project Tree, along with references to their detailed guide pages.
Main Project Sections

- Contains the fundamental configuration settings of your project. User management, e-mail/Telegram notification settings (Notifications), and general project settings are configured here.
- See: Setup
- Database: The section where you manage all SQL databases (SQLite, SQL Server, MySQL) connected to your project.
- See: Database
- Servers
- This section allows you to configure the network role of your project and the services it provides.
