Set up version checking of cached files

When you open a file in a
FactoryTalk View SE
 Client, for example when you open a
FactoryTalk View
 graphic file, it is copied from the server to the Temporary Internet Files directory on the client hard drive, and then opened. If the file is opened again, the version cached on the client is displayed. If the file on the server is more recent, it is copied to the client.
The caching behavior of the Internet Explorer must be set up so that every time a page is to be visited, Internet Explorer checks to see if there is a newer version of stored pages to ensure that the most recent display is used.
If you want a graphic file to remain loaded but invisible, for example to keep an ActiveX control running, use the
/ZA
 parameter with the Display command, or in the Properties tab of the Display Settings dialog, select the Always Updating option.
The cached files are also used when the server is disconnected from the client.
To set up version checking of cached files:
  1. In
    Internet Explorer
     click
    Tools
    >
    Internet options
    .
  2. In the
    General
    tab, in the
    Temporary Internet files
    frame, click
    Settings
    .
  3. In the
    Settings
    dialog box, for
    Check for newer versions of stored pages
    , click
    Every visit to the page
    .
  4. Click
    OK
    in the
    Settings
    and
    Internet Options
     dialog boxes.
    TIP:
    In Internet Explorer if you leave
    Check for Newer versions of stored pages
    , set to Automatic, which is the default, Internet Explorer will not update the ActiveX control if a newer version exists.
