On the home screen, you can launch the Online Demo, which is on the Ignition 8.0 Demo Server or launch a project on a different Gateway.
To launch the demo, just click the Perspective icon or click on the demo description.
When you are running a project or the demo app, you can switch to a different application, as follows:
Click on the Search icon at the top of the screen to filter the project list.
Click on the Settings icon at the top of the screen to view the settings for the Perspective app. Here you can organize your list of available Gateways. You can also turn the Auto-Launch option on and select a project that will be automatically launched when the Perspective App is opened on this device.
Added in version .96, the Ignition Perspective App can now be configured via iOS and Android enterprise services (as defined by the AppConfig Community ), allowing third-party tools to install the app with some initial configurations. The actual configurations are pushed out by the Enterprise Mobile Management (EMM) solution, so there are no configurations to be made on the Ignition side. However, the following keys will be made available to the EMM solution.
