Starting from FactoryTalk View SE version 16.00, FactoryTalk Batch View HMI Controls are not included in the installation. To use FactoryTalk Batch View HMI Controls, you must download it from the Product Compatibility and Download Center (PCDC) and install it manually. For more information about the
FactoryTalk Batch View
HMI Controls, see its document in the installation folder, which by default is C:\Program Files (x86)\Rockwell Software\Batch\Batch View HMI Controls.
IMPORTANT:
FactoryTalk Batch View HMI Controls and FactoryTalk View SE components, such as EChartsWidget .NET control, use the Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF). Due to its limitations, CEF does not support multiple versions of CEF loaded in the same process. If you do not plan to use multiple CEF components, there are no version constraints. If you plan to use multiple CEF components in a single FactoryTalk View SE application, ensure that they are compatible. For example, EChartsWidget from FactoryTalk View version 14.00 and Batch View HMI Controls version 2.02 or earlier cannot be used together in the same application; you must upgrade Batch View HMI Controls to version 3.00.
To ensure optimal performance and stability, use the same CEF version for all components within your FactoryTalk View SE application.
  • For the CEF version used in FactoryTalk View SE, check its open-source file
    Third-Party Attributions SE.html
    in C:\Program Files (x86)\Rockwell Software\RSView Enterprise\Third-Party Attributions.
  • For the CEF version used in Batch View HMI Controls, check its Release Notes.
