Script files
By adding JavaScript files, you can integrate your own libraries or 3rd party libraries. These are useful if functions are required repeatedly or sophisticated code such as for charts is to be integrated. These files can be uploaded via the TcHmi server. The server stores the files at "TwinCAT:XAR.ReportingServer". The files stored here provide the corresponding functions. Pay attention to the order in which the files are initialized.
