ULC UX Widget

The ULC UX widget shows predefined panels via a ULC UX-connection.

Additional Requirements

In addition to the general Requirements and Installation of the Dashboard, following requirements need to be considered:

For using the ULC UX widget, an explicit write permission bit needs to be configured, by using the config entry [wssServer] canWritePermissionBit. This bit must be set for the Dashboard user.
The Dashboard must be started in "Read/Write" mode, by adding the parameter ?dbrw to the URL of the Dasbhoard, e.g.:
```
https://localhost/data/dashboard/index.html?dbrw
```
A UI Client license is required.

Settings

The ULC UX widget can either show the default panel, which is the configured ULC UX default panel, or a custom panel. The custom panel can be selected from all panels within the project using the panel selector below.

The default host for the ULC UX widget is the same as the host for the Dashboard itself. This can also be switched to a userdefined Host, e.g.: a remote web server.

The UI arguments for the ULC UX widget within the Dashboard can be set with the config entry [ulcUX]dashboardUiArguments. This is independent of the arguments set for the standard ULC UX.
