orion-OrionService
This component under the Services node in the Nav tree enables the Orion database in a station. It uses a local relational database running in a controller (including embedded controllers) to manage and display distributed-system (or distributed-application) information. This managed and configurable information includes certain types of component data that are well suited for the relational model. It is available in the orion palette.
Orion is an Object-Relational (O/R) mapping architecture provided to support distributed-applications, large systems, and other applications that may benefit from having relational data modeled as framework objects. Object-Relational Mapping does not replace the config.bog (station) file, but provides for the creation of a new space, the Orion space, that is stored outside the station database file (like histories, files, and modules). This functionality includes a means for alternative and multiple system hierarchy displays that can be used for data presentation, system identification, and navigation.
To access these properties, expand Services, and double-click the OrionService node in the Nav tree.
In addition to the standard properties (Status, Fault Cause and Enabled), one property supports this component.
