Default Mobile Web Profile

In Niagara, this profile is deprecated.

Important:

In latest versions of Niagara, the legacy Niagara Mobile technology is deprecated. Although it continues to be supported and works as expected, you should not use it for any new projects. Instead, use the mobile-friendly features of the HTML5 Hx Profile which provides a significantly improved mobile user experience.

Note: In Niagara , you can view HxPx pages from a mobile profile by setting the Px Target Media to HxPx. This feature is on by default. However, if you prefer to continue viewing only mobile pages you can turn this feature off by going to your MobilePxApp and setting the showHxPx property to false.

In NiagaraAX releases (AX-3.7–AX-3.8), Mobile apps use Bajascript technology and require no Java-plugin download. The Default Mobile Web Profile provides a reduced set of features (compared to the Java-plugin profiles) but includes most of the frequently-used controls and field editors in a way that is easy to use on a cell phone or tablet.

Major features of the Default Mobile Profile include:

  • Header navigation

    The Header Bar appears across the top of the view area and displays a Back button and a Command button for navigation. This bar can be disabled (hidden) if desired.

  • Real-Time Data

    Data is displayed in real time using Bajascript technology and the NiagaraAX BOX service instead of the Java plugin.

  • View Selector

    A limited set of view selections are available through the Select Views menu under the Command button.
