FactoryTalk View Site Edition Client
The
FactoryTalk View
Site Edition client provides a complete runtime operating environment that can run on remote client computers. You can use the client to:- Load, view, and interact with multiple graphic displays at a time from multiple servers.
- Perform alarm management.
- View real-time and historical trends.
- Adjust set points.
- Start and stop components on any server.
- Provide a secure operator environment.
When a
FactoryTalk View
network distributed application is run by multiple users, behavior which is appropriate in a single user environment might not be appropriate in a multi-user environment. For example, if a graphic display that is running on several clients, has a shutdown macro that stops a derived tags file, when the display is closed on one client the shutdown macro will stop the derived tags file. This would affect the display on the other clients because the derived tags file resides on the server.To set up a
FactoryTalk View
Site Edition Client, create a configuration file using the FactoryTalk View
Site Edition Client Wizard. The HMI server does not have to be running when you configure a FactoryTalk View
Site Edition Client.The configuration file defines the runtime client. It has the extension
.cli
. The information in it includes the name of the FactoryTalk View SE
application the client is to connect to, the components that will be started when the connection is made, and runtime properties and behavior of the client.Provide Feedback
