Run the Gateway from the Project Explorer

The Project menu enables you to create new projects and browse the existing projects on your computer. It is possible to load an existing project configuration, update a project configuration using the Project menu and execute projects using the Run button.

To start working with the Project menu of the Gateway:

1. Type Gateway for 2D Data in the Search box on the taskbar in your computer. Alternatively, click the AVEVA Gateway for 2D Data icon in the installed location or the shortcut icon on your desktop, if that option was selected when installing the Gateway.

2. AVEVA Gateway for 2D Data page opens with the Project and Help menus in the main window.

3. Click the Help icon to get the information relating to the Gateway version, copyright information and product synopsis.

   Note: The Gateway supports Universal Naming Convention (UNC) paths. By using UNC paths, connect to servers and other workstations without mapping to a drive. The UNC path syntax is as follows:\\servername\sharename\directory

   It is possible to use this UNC path syntax in configurations and command line execution scripts. You must have the appropriate authorization to read/write to the target directory.
