To base a project on an existing starter project:

1. Create a project using a Starter project.

Two pre-defined starter projects with page resolutions HD1080 and HD768 for wide screens only are provided as part of the product installation. Each of the starter projects will be based on project "SxW_Style_1" and contain:

• A cluster named "Cluster1".
• A server of each server types: “IOServer1”, “AlarmServer1”, “ReportServer1” and “TrendServer1”.
• A memory I/O devices named “Internal”.
• Equipment type “Motor” and its associated template file, graphical genie and super-genie pop-up pages.
• A role named "Administrators" which is linked to the "BUILTIN\Administrators" Windows group and have global privilege of 1 to 8. This allows a user to log in Citect SCADA at runtime using a Windows user account who belongs to the Administrators group of the local machine.
• Pages of Alarm, Summary, Disabled, Hardware, ProcessAnalyst and !ProcessAnalystPopup, Data Browse -Control Inhibit, and Manual Override, based on the relevant templates found in the SxW_Style_Include project.
• Page specific menu items. For example, the active alarm page will have page specific menu items such as Simulate, History, Acknowledge and Disable, and Filter options.

The newly created project will be immediately compilable, and will contain a basic level of built-in functions such as viewing alarms and trends, and a menu displayed in the right-panel to easily access and navigate the included pages.

To configure a project based on the StruxureWare templates from scratch, follow these steps:

1. Create a privileged user; see Creating a Privileged User.
2. Run the Setup Wizard; see Running the Setup Wizard.
3. Set up instant trending; see Using Instant Trending.
4. Set up multiple monitor display; see Displaying a Project on Multiple Monitors.
5. Implement audible alarms; see Implementing Audible Alarms.
6. Add Pages; see Creating New Pages.
7. Create/define custom menu; see Creating Custom Menus.

Avoid modifications to the StruxureWare template project for use as a runtime project; set it aside for use as a template for new projects.
