The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Plan files and templates are stored in archive repositories, which can be installed on a different device than the one on which the WAE Design GUI is used. From the WAE Design GUI, you can extract WAE Live.pln plan files and templates from remote servers running WAE Live and make whatever modifications are necessary. You can then re-insert them as template files into a Map archive directory used by the WAE Live application. Another use case for remote access is to open plan files from WAE Live for use in the Forecasting tool.
Note The recommendation is to open the remote plan file, modify it to create the visual template, and save it to the WAE Live Map archive as a template. When uploading a template to the Map archive, you are overwriting the template that is in the Map archive.
Step 1 In the WAE Design GUI, use the File menu to start the process.
Step 2 After opening the dialog box, enter or select the hostname or IP address of the server.
Step 3 Identify how to connect to the server by selecting the appropriate protocol and by entering or selecting the port number (for example, HTTPS 8443).
Step 4 Enter or select the name of the network you are accessing. The name of the default WAE Live network is “default.”
Step 5 Enter the username and password that gives you access to the server. Both are case sensitive. If you do not know the password, contact your system administrator.
Step 6 If saving a template, click OK and stop here. If opening a plan file or template, continue to step 7.
Step 7 If opening a template, select the Template option.
If opening a plan file, identify which one by selecting the latest or by entering a specific time using a YY/MM/DD HH:MM format.
Ensure Save Settings is enabled.
Click OK to exit. Upon being prompted for whether to continue, click Yes.
