The key specifies maximum waiting time in milliseconds before sending data over the network. The higher the value of this parameter, the more productive the system due to decreasing resources when sending a large amount of small messages. However, time of response to events can also increase. The key is created by default

The key sets the delay between disabling Guardant and unloading Axxon PSIM.

The delay is essential for the FORCED_OFF event generation of the PSIM_HOST  object and in case this event is used in scripts or programs, these scripts and programs are executed.

The key is for specifying the way of sorting objects in the tree:

0 – sorting by name

1 – sorting by ID

Note 1. If sorting by name is chosen, and there are numbers in the object name, then the objects will be sorted in alphabetical order. For example, an object with the name "115" will be above the object with the name "15", because in the name "115" the second number is 1, and in the name "15" the second number is 5.

Note 2. This key also affects the sorting of objects in the tree when adding the objects to a layer in the Map Editor utility

The key enables displaying the main control panel of Axxon PSIM on the screen.

0 – the main control panel is displayed when pointing to the upper right corner of the screen

Sets time period (in days) of storing the change protocol in the database.

The key enables the compression of transmitted messages:

0 — compression is disabled

1 — messages from the cores are sent compressed (zip with maximum compression). Compression allows reducing the network load

Note. If the key value = 1, the Web-Server doesn't work, because the Web-Server doesn't recieve compressed messages

The key is used with the ACS/FAS integration modules that are the part of ACFA PSIM. It enables displaying the access card number for all events associated with the cards in the Event Viewer.
0 – the access card number is not displayed in the Event Viewer
1 – when an event comes from the ACS device, the param1 parameter is interpreted as an access card number and is displayed in the Event Viewer in the Card column. This column is automatically added to the Event Viewer window when the first such event is received

The key determines if cameras are removed from the list in the Video surveillance monitor when the Camera object is removed.

1—when the object is removed, the camera is removed from the list in the Video surveillance monitor

2—when the object is removed, the camera isn't removed from the list in the Video surveillance monitor. When you recreate the Camera object with the same identifier, it is automatically added to the list of cameras in the Video surveillance monitor

It enables recording of incoming messages to log files for started modules. The file name looks like <module name>.exe.cd.log.

These files are stored in the same folder as the executed module file, for instance, for psim.exe the psim.exe.cd.log file is stored in the Axxon PSIM installation directory and for VMSScript.exe the VMSScript.exe.cd.log file is stored in the Modules folder.

When the size of the log file exceeds 4 GB, it is archived to the backup file with .bak extension – <module name>.exe.cd.log.bak. This is necessary to avoid module overload.

Note. The log file is rewritten when Axxon PSIM is restarted.

0 – recording of incoming messages is disabled

1 – recording of incoming messages is enabled

The key specifies the number of the physical monitor on which the Main Control Panel should be displayed. The key can be used both for the Axxon PSIM Server/RAW configuration, and for the Client configuration.

Monitors are numbered left to right, top to bottom, regardless of system numbering.

Important! The numbering of monitors starts from 0. For example, set the key to 0 to display the Main Control Panel on the 1st physical monitor; set to 1 to display on the 2nd monitor, etc.

By default, the Main Control Panel is displayed on the Primary monitor selected in the system screen options

The key disables hot keys for macros.

0 – hotkeys in macros are disabled

1 – hotkeys in macros are enabled

The key sets the size of the buffer to receive the TCP transport layer in bytes. Examples of values: 262144 (0.25 MB), 1048576 (1 MB), 10485760 (10 MB). Used together with the SocketWriteSize parameter
