Since the 46.16 version, it's possible to propagate extensions between Niagara stations.

The extension propagation is an addition to the Source Propagation. For the Extension propagation to work, first check that the Source Propagation works.


The propagation of a source station's extension, will create an equivalent GenericRemoteExt in the target station. A GenericRemoteExt is a copy of an Extension allowing you to see its state and any modification done in the GenericRemoteExt will be propagated to the original Extension. Similarly to the InfoRemoteSource, the GenericRemoteExt and its parent RemoteSource will be placed in a hierarchy of PointFolders to imitate the slotpath of the original Extension.


The RemoteExt will have the same name as the Extension


The GenericRemoteExt in the target station won't be an exact copy:

  • All the BSimple slots will be copied or updated.
  • All the BComplex slots (and their content) will be copied into a GenericRemoteComponent.


A refresh of the view on the remote component is sometimes needed to see the changes brought by the propagation of an InfoSource.
