Rebooting a controller station

In Niagara 4, reboot is available only for remote platforms. Reboot is always unavailable when connected to any Windows platform, either local or remote.

You are working in Workbench and are connected to a remote controller. The controller’s station is configured for auto-restart.
  1. Expand the Platform node in the Nav tree or double-click Platform.
    The contents of the Nav Container View opens in the tree or in the main view.
  2. Double-click the Platform Administration.
    The Platform Administration view opens.
  3. Click the Reboot button.
    A message confirms the action.

    The daemon drops your Workbench platform connection and attempts to stop any running station before issuing the reboot. A reboot restarts the QNX OS, Java VM, platform daemon, and, finally, the station.

  4. Connect to the rebooted station.
    Depending on the platform type, it may take from several seconds to a couple of minutes before you can connect to the station again.
