INIPATH

 

INIPATH="<location>"                                                     (default = user profile area)

 

This parameter directs the MOMI PC Client to store its configuration information at the location specified. The parameter only specifies the path as the client always uses the name MOMI.INI.

 

Note there are no spaces between the keyword, equal sign and the location.

 

The Client configuration information in stored in a simple text file using standard INI format and by default located in the in the users profile area. This location is typically:

Windows 10 and later -

C:\Users\<User ID>\AppData\Roaming\BlackWood Systems\MOMI\

Where <User ID> is the name used at logon to Windows. You must enable Show hidden files, folders and drives under Windows Folder Options to enable their display.

 

MOMI also stores in the location specified by this parameter the files Calendar.mom, CustErrors.mom and the directories MomiData and Backups.

 

The default location provides user specific storage for MOMI settings and usually has no security implications. However, altering this location may be desirable if more than one User accesses the PC and common settings are needed or the client is started multiple times and each need their own specific settings.

 

The User could have different INI files to store different configurations for multiple Systems. Each System could have its own filters, color-coded EMS messages, thresholds, etc... specific a different location for each MOMI shortcut.

 

The MOMI.INI file may also be initialized with customer specific data. See PC Client initial configuration deployment for additional information.

 

 

Example:

 

MOMI.EXE inipath="d:\data\fred\momi"                redirects INI to d:\data\fred\momi
