Software Details window

This window displays information about each software module that is available locally and installed on a remote controller platform.

Figure 1. Software Details dialog from Software Manager


To open this window, connect to the remote platform, expand Platform, double-click Software Manager, locate a module and double-click its row.

Details include a brief module description, comparisons between installed and available modules, module file and size, signature statuses, and whatever module dependencies exist, by part names. Dependencies are listed for both cases: what software is required by this module, plus software that is dependent on this module. The dependency details are for information only. When installing modules from the Software Manager, all dependent modules are automatically included when you select a module to install.

As well as displaying the signature statuses of the selected module, this window provides a link to view the certificate that the module is signed with. For more details on signature statuses, refer to the Niagara Third Party Module Signing guide.
