Configure IIS for hyperlink animation

To use the hyperlink animation in
FactoryTalk ViewPoint
to open local web resources, you need to add a virtual directory in IIS Manager and put the resources in this directory.
TIP:
You do not need to add a virtual directory if you have an existing intranet web server. You can put the resources under the web server directories and specify the address in the hyperlink animation.
To configure IIS for hyperlink animation:
  1. On the intranet web server computer hosting the resources, open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.
  2. In the
    Connections
    pane, right-click a site and select
    Add Virtual Directory
    .
  3. In the
    Add Virtual Directory
    dialog box, specify the alias and the physical path where the virtual directory content is stored.
    TIP:
    We recommend that you use the
    Web
    folder as the physical path. The default path is:
    C:\Users\Public\Documents\RSView Enterprise\SE\Web
Example:
The address of hyperlink may be like
http://ComputerName/RSViewSE/Local_resources/demo.pdf
, where
  • ComputerName
    is the name or IP address of the intranet web server computer hosting the resources.
  • RSViewSE
    is the site name hosting HMI server.
  • Local_resources
    is the virtual directory that you put the local web resources.
  • demo.pdf
    is the local web resource that you want to open.
