About HMI server components

Use the
Components
tab of the
HMI Server Properties
dialog box to:
  • specify components that load when the HMI server starts up
  • select a macro that runs when the Stop All Running Components button is pressed
Options for HMI server startup components match those for the HMI Server Properties dialog box for network distributed applications.
However, the HMI server for local station applications only starts on demand. This means that the startup components start either when a
FactoryTalk View SE
Client attempts to log on to a local station application, or when the user clicks the
Run Startup Components
button in the
Components
tab of the
HMI Server Properties
dialog box.
To autorun the
FactoryTalk View SE
Client when the computer starts, add a shortcut to the client configuration file in the Windows Startup folder. The CLI files are stored in
C:\Users\Public\Public Documents\RSView Enterprise\SE\Clients\<client file name>
.
